My Personal collections

This is my personal collection of books that I wish to read and also books that I have accomplished so far. I firmly believe in  Thomas Jefferson's quote - "A life without a book is meaningless". I want my life to be meaningful and so here comes this blog. I will keep on updating this list and also welcome people who suggest me some good books and give me some feedback.

A triangle love story between three. One guy who failed to IIT but becoming a director of an Engineering college. Another guy who cracked the exams to get in to the best college and at last ended up in running his own news paper publication who is willing to correct the corrupted nation with his thoughts and broad mind.

Kane and Abel - Jeffrey Archer


kane-and-abel


This is one of the best books that I have ever read. It explains life of 2 persons from their birth to death. The journey they went through, difficulties in bringing themselves up their life. I highly recommend this book for anyone. The author has kept his nerve through out the story. I have decided to read the few other books of this author. He deserves the title to be one of the best authors in the world.









To be drowned....
