Heheheh! We literally go all out! lol!
I hate missing out on good books, that's why I never hesitate in requesting...
Anyways, 15 books from Netgalley is a good enough challenge :) All the best :)

OMG! Totally! We are total Bookiopaths! lol!

Wow! Great reccs Dagny...
I'll take out time and sit and go through the blurbs of all these books :)
Thanks :D

That's great! I'm also planning to complete Dune series in Sci-Fi Month so that it can be counted in Series challenge as well :)

Just checked the poll, if it is the science fiction poll - great classics, but I've already read the top four."

Ohh... okay. :)

I've just started with and

I'll check out the second one, as I'm looking up for good mystery books!

Hello RMFAO'ers!
What all Science-Fiction books are you planning to read this month.
Please mention your Level as well. You can add or remove books at any point of time. And yes, you can visit this discussion board after January also!

Here's to all the books we'll read this month... cheers!

NETGALLEY... the word that scared me the most in 2014! I got so many books approved that I got tired and just left them on the e-shelf undisturbed...
But I wanna get my shit right in 2015 and read all those books. If you're with me then join this challenge and keep posting about the book(s) you're or you'll be reading on Netgalley.

My target Netgalley books: 25 (atleast)
I'm gonna read them as per RMFAO 2015 Genre Challenge.

That's great! I'm glad that you decided to join :D
Will you be joining us for the buddy-reads this month?

Yea, I second that! I mean who reads all these books! Well I wonder how many Indians are 'real-readers', I think very few and apparantly no one wants to write books for those few (like us) who actually are aware of books of great world authors (not just the very famous ones like Shakespeare, but others like Robin Cook, King, George RR Martin, JRR Tolkien, etc...) I mean I read books and then I realise the only place I can actually talk about them is either on Goodreads or on my blog!
I really feel people here should start reading more, or start reading 'good stuff' that actually accounts to 'good writing.'
I guess you're the only Indian (who lives here) with whom I actually talk about all the books. Otherwise more than half of Indian readers don't even have any idea about some of the best books!
And very well said about Chetan Bhagat and the likes! I mean come-on, write some great fantasy shit that counts as real-writing and then call yourselves WRITERS/AUTHORS!
I hate to admit this but because of people liking Bhagat's every single novel, I doubt that anyone here will even read my fantasy book, if and when it gets out!

Dagny wrote: "Heena wrote: " I'll try and read as much as possible... hopefully all :) "


Good for you, Heena! I still have some more I could add, some Russian authors and some more French authors (my favorites..."

That's great Dagny! I look forward to read them :)

Awww... that's really sweet... Thanks :)
You know what the collection of Crossword is so bad that they don't even keep King's books... Can you believe it?
People in our country really need to get some really hard reality check on their book-tastes!

If both of you (Dagny and Simona) like it so much, then I'm totally game for TCOMC.
I'll get the e-book asap but I'll try and see if my library has it, cause I strongly think that great books should be read in paperback! Thanks Dagny for such great recommendations... I'll try and read as much as possible... hopefully all :)

@Titas: Nope! Got them from Landmark bookstore...

I hope you do get reward for helping out someone with circuits! ;)

You'll love Gone Girl. We had quite a discussion on it's thread. You'll like it: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Sounds interesting!
