Not a bookworm… read books while travelling … I generally choose books based on Popular section of Literature & Fiction of Flipkart based on reviews of readers there….

U r going to laugh at me … i don’t like foreign authors even during my studies over the years i tried to avoid foreign authors … Its not like my english is weak but its inside my head that English authors are hard to understand …

Arre bhai , nothing like that !! In fact, even i hate foreign author for my engineering subjects !!! But as far as books are concerned, they are unbeatable !!

for starting you could try authors like Erle stanley Gardner. His perry Mason books are awesome and inexpensive.

Also try authors like Agatha Christie, Dan brown etc whose english is very simple.

Once set… you can go for Mario Puzo, James Lee Burke , Vince Flynn Etc. who have got their own brilliant style !!

Parth bro the link u have sent is showing price of 158 rs & after adding to cart & applying coupon FLASH3101 it is showing You are eligible for 0 as a discount. I have created 2 new accounts & tried same thing is happening.

While searching on Indiatimes i am getting same book in 192rs & coupon is working on that one & giving discount of 48rs.

So i think the book’s price is 158rs & they had listed it as 192rs & giving 25% off …

http://www.uread.com/book/chanakyas-chant-ashwi...

though u can go for bookset by him, which will cost u around 340 after disc [115 per book] which is i guess cheapest.

I used to be a fanatic but it went downhill after Goblet of Fire.

i have read almost all the books of Sidney Sheldon, i just love his style of writing, have been searching ever since for an author like him, but haven’t come across any

yea Govind… Sidney Sheldon novels are one of the best legendary novels of all time !!!
