Both 'Wind, Sand and Stars' and 'Flight to Arras' are autobiographical narratives, and the first one sets the stage for Antoine de Saint-Exupery's most memorable work, 'The Little Prince'. The wind, sand and stars, and a plane crash, you get the picture.The second is all about war and flying sorties and introspection, which can get depressing.
In both works, the author has near-death experiences and examines life in detail. Both are award-winning works. The book I got was old and musty with pages turning from yellow to brown, adding a touch of antiquity to the book.

The book is a collection of stories and poems, many from the Colonial era, where gora-sahibs played cricket and went hunting with much enthusiasm. Ruskin has managed to insert few of his stories and poems in between. The funniest story though, is about Ruskin's hidden talent to sing, written by a friend of his. Over all, the book will certainly draw out smiles from the readers, if not loud ha-ha. The book I got was terribly old and musty with pages turning from yellow to brown, adding a touch of antiquity to the humour.

The plot at points makes you guess the culprit being predictive at times yet the journey is pretty witty. Poirot's instincts and keen observant skills are at par as always. Not the best of Christie, of course, but worth giving the time. Some parts although seem boring and stretchy containing too much of info. But the overall is a one time read.

I read it through this library. Lovers of flowers get subtle fragrance here and there and an open heart may find it at many places! If the reader is in “THE” right state, he may feel realities in this fiction and gratefully be with it. The only point needs to be conveyed to the Author is that the idea of Gender is the deepest of all conditionings and this shell is difficult to crack open till one happen to touch The One (gender neutral)!! Gratefully congratulate the author!! Thank You.

Aniket, a simple techie, gets so much impressed by the stunning beauty of Trisha that he is unable to see anything beyond her charms. Manoj, a highly successful and ambitious executive, is already engaged to Nidhi but is unable to think beyond his own career. Nidhi has left her well-paying corporate job as she loves her hobby and wanted to make living out of it. So, there are four individuals having vastly different personalities. Each one is trying out to carve out a space for him or her in the society.
The most interesting part of the story is when they realize that their current choice of life partner is not really going to make them happy. And the quest starts with identifying the right one, where destiny plays a major role.
Preeti Shenoy is one of my favourite Indian authors. Like her other books I very much enjoyed this novel.

The book might feel extremely boring for the first few chapters. But i would recommend you to read the book and then decide if you want to read the series. The author has created 2 to 3 series in parallel with this so you may have yourself booked for the next 6 months. If you liked harry potter or want to read a little about greek mythology, this is your book.

Wanted to read this book because of known to be honest attitude of Rishi Kapoor . This book throws a light on the advantages of being a star child and also flip side of it . About relationships he shared with his father as a son and with his son as a father . Some honest opinions and acceptance of a stereotype and typecasts of scrips and image from his point of view. An insight to mindset and psyche of an established actor and his viewpoints on parallel cinema . Overall a good read .

The witches is an extremely good and fantastic book.
I liked the part when the boy (or mouse ! )went to the witch's room at hotel magnificent and stole the bottle .
Even after he turned into a mouse , he plucked up the courage to steal it .Roald Dahl wove magic to his story with his imagination and made this book more interesting and exciting .
I would love to read this book again !

Rozabal line offers much more than standard CIA, religious fanaticism and military insurgence. Although at some places the reader might go off track but overall the Ashwin Sanghi does have managed to pull off a well structured book. Readers who are fond of Dan Brown writing style would very well relate themselves to Ashwin Sanghi.

This book by Devdutt Patnaik is a brilliant book and worth appreciation.It's lucid language makes children enjoy it very much.The illustrations are very much funny/relevant to the subject and makes it more interesting and undersandable.I could'nt put this book down .
The author, Devdutt Patnaik , has written this book about Sita's five choices by his perspective .It is a book all about choices and rules and whether the choices which Sita made led to trouble or not.

The author Mr OG Mandino is well known motivational speaker from USA. The book enumerate four principles of happiness in the most lucid way and four principles are..
1. Count your blessings
2. Proclaim your rarity
3. Go another mile
4. Use wisely your power of choice,
The principles are explained more with Christian background, which could be limitation for people following other faiths.
The exercise for 100 days i.e. reading God's memorandum before sleeping could be worth experimenting. However, it seems to be difficult, as it is almost 13 pages documents.
The book is suitable for self-motivation and can be used as a guide book, while counseling others.

The book put forwards almost opposite stand points then the most popular stand on controversial issues namely death penalty for Afzal guru, riots after Godhra carnage and evolution of nationalist Hinduvavadi politics. As a reader, you are allowed to disagree but at least need to accept existence of alternative view point. The language of the book is very lucid and all the claims are supported by some evidences. However, authenticity of evidence could be subjective.
The book will surely contribute strengthening our democracy in time to come

Rating: 3.5 out of 5
The book provides best narration for E=mc2 equation along with its historical relevance of the scientist involved in making the equation possible. Must read for students interested in physics.
Best part being is to observe how all the research works are interlinked to each other and how all the scientific dignitaries such as Faraday, Chadwick, Rutherford or even Einstein and Heisenberg encounter each other by there work.

A light delightful story... full of twists & turns!!! How certain incidents in our lives, though appear shocking to begin with, eventually turn out to be for our very good !! It all happens for reasons, which maybe unknown to us. The struggles of a single mother followed by a mixture of emotions when her son starts looking out for his father one fine day.... - jealousy, betrayal, not wanting to share him with his dad, protectiveness for her son!!

This is the most tragic, most magical and most "critically acclaimed" novel that I ever read. Spanning hundreds of years, in a magical town of Macondo, the protagonists share the names (befuddling)! Imagine reading the detailed -and jumbled- history of a family-tree, only to realize that nothing comes out of it, "because races condemned to one hundred years of solitude did not have a second opportunity on earth". In all honesty, I don't really know if the book is a literary-masterpiece or a verbal-diarrhea. Anyway, my fav quote: "The world was reduced to the surface of her skin and her inner self was safe from all bitterness.”

I really don't know what dystopia is, anymore. Are we conditioned now to feel and belong and to copulate and to own? Or, are the people conditioned in the book BNW to not feel and to not own and to just be? I think, there's no such thing as absolute freedom. I don't have much praise for Huxley as a writer (boy, is he obsessed with Shakespeare!). Also, the copy of Brave New World at CallLibrary was infested with insects and very old (yellow pages). So, I read it online. My parting thought is - Consumerism is going to be the end of all individual thoughts, whether it's our world, or the brave new world. The end is... sad. :'(

Loved the self-deprecating humor and underdog vibe through-out the whole book. The book cuts across the time barrier (was published in 1990s for 30 something single-women) and is still a fresh read. Had a great time reading it. One of the books, written with rare honesty and writing, that inspires me to write in my original voice and to achieve my inner poise. :p

I used to be secular and respect people's religious beliefs for the sake of diversity and universal tolerance. Not anymore. I realize that religion causes more harm than plausible benefits. I have been an atheist since I was 15. "The God Delusion" gave scientific and logical base to my atheism. After reading this, if anyone still believes there's a "man in the sky"... I guess you are delusional. I would like to highlight some points from Dawkins' book that I agree with: One, leaders use religion to their purpose. Two, we don't need religion to know what's good and bad i.e. to be moral. Three, there's no such thing as a muslim, hindu or christian CHILD. Four, religion scars children for life. Five, religion and science are incompatible. Pick one. I choose science.

Joker in the Pack' has all the contents of a classic 'Chetan Bhagat' creation although it is highly relatable especially to an MBA student right from the agonizing Summers to the final placements. It is extremely fast-paced and difficult to put down. The authors, Ritesh Sharma and Neeraj Pahlajani although alumni, have an irreverent view of the IIMs asserting that it's not all fun and games and the stellar salary package. Although the language is a bit simplistic and the stereotypes get a bit much (you have to turn back a few pages to check, which category a person was assigned!), it is a light and interesting read. Noteworthy is that the authors have managed to portray the actual processes in an IIM without being too disrespectful.
Highly recommended for MBA students, although a onetime read, it is packed with enough meat and colourful language that would make you want to finish the book in 3 hours flat.

Initially you would feel that you are reading another book of teens that fall in love but as the pages turned it just became more interesting.
It is a story that is very well written about a girl who looses her parents at a tender age and falls in love with a boy in school who dies because of dengue. The girl has an ambition to become a doctor and she follows her dream and becomes a doctor. While treating one of the patient she comes across with her past. How?
Please read the book to know the answer.
I really wonder whether love can be so true that it can reappear in your life.
