Book Tagged!
Ok, I have been book tagged and here goes...
Books - one of my passions.
My Book collection - something I take pride in.
Fiction - Jeffrey Archer, Agatha Christie, John Grisham, Sidney Sheldon, Perry Mason seires, Robert Ludlum, Fredrick Forsyth, Irving Wallace, Robin Cook...( close to 100)
Classics - David Copperfield, Mark Twain, O Henry, Stevenson, Jane Austen, Oscar Wilde, R.K.Narayan...(have about 50 of them)
Kiddie Collection - Famous Five, Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew......I cant give them away even though I dont read them now (have crazily collected around 70 of these)
Misc - dont have the patience to list them now.
[All above books owned by me :-) (Have not included mom, dad or granpa's collection)]
E-books - something I wont even give a glance towards.
Hard- bounds - dont really prefer coz I cant read them while lying on my bed!
Books I would recommend
1. Paul Reiser's "Couplehood" - hilarious!(Thanks sups... for giving me the book)
2. Pride and Prejudice - Jane Austen (the not so romantic ones...dont bother, is not fast-moving like the thrillers, a classic...u will need some patience)
3. O-Henry's 100 short stories - This one is another classic, the stories are very moving. (for those who cant place him..remember "The Gift of Magi"?)
4. Sherlock Holmes - the complete collection (2 volumes)
Other memorable reads
Da Vinci Code - Dan Brown
The Eleventh Commandment - Jeffrey Archer
Code to Zero - Ken Follet
A Murder is Announced - Agatha Christie
(There are plenty of othes, but this post is too lengthy already)
Comics I enjoy
Calvin & Hobbes
Archies
Books I could have skipped
Linda Goodman's Sunsigns
Mills and Boon series
Books I want to read
Pappillon
Jonathan Livingston Seagull -by Richard Bach

Books I cant seem to finish
As the crow flies - Jeffrey Archer
LOTR
Men are from mars and Women from Venus
Books I cant seem to start
John Grisham novels (no matter which one I pick...I cannot even start reading)
Books I treasure
Disneys classics - Collection of 12 Fairy Tales!
Ya call me a kid, call me a romantic...call me a dreamer! I am all of them. I cant let go of these (I hide them away when my lil cousins come home, else mom will spot them and pass it onto them)! These are with illustrations and the pictures are awesome, I love to paint them.
(Of course, I am possesive about all my books...)

Wow! a wonderful collection..especially the kiddie collection...Im often tempted to buy Hardy Boys and Nancy Drews off the shelves of papermarts...but then..I have lots of Tinkles
agree with Sangeetha...very nice collection of books...hey! seems like we both have some common interests in books too!
if grisham is ur fav novelist,acc to ur list, then how come u cant get urself to read a single one of his books? its a little confusing thats all. I think u mean jonathan Livingston seagull by bach!
When did I say Grisham was my fav??!!!
And oh ya..thanks for the correction about Seagull (I heard about the book from someone, so assumed the title and author....)
And oh ya..if the reason u thought Grisham was my fav was coz I have his collection, then who says you got to pick books of only your fav author? I have picked up a few books, but havent been able to read or finish them.
