Conceding to the nominations by Riddhish, Pearl, Jagravi and Smriti, I try to list down a few books that have inspired me and stay with me. Unlike several of you who could come up with 10-12 titles, I really dont know how far Ill get :P 1. The Famous Five and the Mystery Series by Enid Blyton (all of them) - Cuz she got me reading in the first place 2. Tinkle Comic books - I still remember how theyd always be the first thing and the last thing Id read in the day, when I was small 3. The Other Side of Midnight - For the sheer thrill and speed Sheldon provided me 4. Kane and Abel - I suppose my biggest learnings came from the last few pages of the book - where we should never really underestimate and discount the goodness of man. 5. As the Crow Flies (again by Jefrrey Archer): It taught me perhaps the biggest lesson in life - Happiness beyond a point is never a monetary number 6. Growing up Bin Laden: For giving me an insight, however shallow and brief, in the mind of Bin Laden. The epilogues from his son and first wife are heart-rendering, inspiring 7. Its not just about the Bike by Lance Armstrong: Because were all human and weve all lied at some point in time - however, fighting cancer in competing in an international sport is no lie. 8. My Experiments with Truth by M.K. Gandhi - You learn something new each time you read the book 9. Freedom at Midnight and India after Gandhi : India was, is and shall remain an area of deep interest and passion 10. C.A. Final Strategic Financial Management Compilation by N.K. Jain : For his insights and introduction to the world of Finance Bonus#11: Savita Bhabhi - ah just out of curiosity :P Wow! What started as something I had to do brought some wonderful memories! Thank you guys for the nomination! Now my turn :D - I nominate Jayraj Chandani Bhavika Gohil Tollan Renner Imad G. El Khoury Elvira Ahma Gujral Baljeet Dilnaaz Mehta :)
