#95 Being engrossed in a good book


Permanently Engrossed in a Good Book - James Bradley

You know its a good book when the laundry dishes and laundry pile up, or when time stops literally or when its interfering with your sleep. Am not much of a book reader, i just read once in a while. I have one sister who is and would be able to finish an entire novel in one sitting. Wow! Its from her i get suggestions for books to read as she may have read thousands of books already. Just joking.

Books that have blown my mind are novels from Khaled Hosseini's The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns, tragic stories which happened in Afghanistan, the former made to a movie. The God of Small things by Arundhati Roy, this one set in India, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Robert Pirsig, this one a metaphysical philosophical novel.  The popular Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code, which cleared a lot of things on the Catholic religion, Paolo Coelho's The Alchemist and Richard Bach's Jonathan Livingston Seagull are also a favorite among others.

How about you, what have you read lately that have blown your mind? =)
