I'm in my mid 20s, and I work as a freelance IT consultant. I used to read all type of books in my childhood and teenage years, but now I only read non-fiction books, specially technology related ones.
I don't read much Bengali books except for Humayun Ahmed's ones, which I buy every year from Ekushey book fair.

I'm S.M. Shahriar & 26years old. I've completed my MSS from Economics Dept,DU.Presently serving in a private company named 'Quasem Group'. I like to read books. I love to live in the world created by every book. But now a days i'm busy with reading job related books. Hope it will be over soon. Then i'll start reading again in full swing. Now i'm reading a book of Sidney Sheldon. My basic interest is in Begali Books. Syed Mujtaba Ali is my favourite. And like any other Bengali people i like Rabindronath. I like to read romantic/comedy/travel story telling books/Economic journals etc.

I'd just like to say that i love the way this group is growing.
When i joined...there were exactly 5 members including myself and we were a sleepy group indeed!!
but now i see 26 members...with many of them joining in on discussions and so forth.....i request those who haven't joined to join in as well...and if you want to talk about something else....open a new discussion.....it's really a lot of fun.
Thanks

Thanks to all the new members for joining in and introducing yourselves. As Ajanta apu said, please post new threads and keep this group alive!


I am Probal,19 (well, my 20th birthday is coming!)
I am a funny friendly guy with a lot of sarcasm.
I love to read stories other than sci-fis. Basically i used to read Humayun Ahmed, but he is going through a writer's block (i think)(hope i didn't offend anyone) I like to read about real life experiences too.
My special interest is in psycolgy(but i am a BBA guy!!! oops!)
I joined GR through my friend shuaib rahman, he's a genious, and i am in this group through Ajanta apu. I want to know about all of you guys book-likings!!!!!

Just become a member of this group. I love reading books for long, but now hardly find any time to. Wish I could get back to the day: olosh duprey suey suey ekta boi porchi...

beshir bhag i dekhi je totporotar bodole ondhokar. bangladeshe podhdhotigoto chinta ta prai nei. se kaorone, amra sokolei kothar harie jai. asha kori, ekhane kisu bhinnota pabo.

Whoppee!!
finally a fantasy lover that i can relate to.....you know with the number of people reading 'smart, intelligent' books these days, i was beginning to feel like a fish out of water....
lol


First of all, I was happy to read your explanation of the name that expresses your insight. personaly, sornaly or shornali is a sweet name that also i saw in your picture.
I am very much happy that you are studying neural science that i think really interesting. i like to know about the subject more from you.
yes, reading is a journey. me too, feel jow could i live without reading!
i must advice you to read the latin american literature.
i truly enjoyed your long notes and discovered a writer inside you.
i felt honoured that you still have a feeling to read bengali literature and like to the culture of your motherland.
if you think i would be one to help you, dont hesitate to write me. its better if you write me at personal mail address: shamsettabrejee@gmail.com
my cell no is: 01713435301
hope to see you again.
take care
best

i dont know how aumee interprete fantasy. but i think there is a semiological value in interpreting history. there is a certain reality in fantasy, cos, we cant live without it, even if we think from the perspective of freud.
awaiting reply from sornali

Almost all great classical literature has a protagonist dreaming of a fantasy world...Fantasy is every where! To me fantasy is that hope and dream that drives a book forward both for the plot of the story and also for the readers...at least that’s how I see it
-- Sornaly
Oh Ajanta thanks for the welcome....Maybe we should start a forum on how everyone in this group interprets genres. How one's favorite genre influences their reading? But I don't want it to be an English assignment or anything.... lets see what’s the response

Seems u all have fun without me. I'm Fahima, 20 yrs old (can't wait to be 21 soon), Studying B.B.A (Most boring (job!) in this world), About book; I like no Love Muhammad Jafar Iqbal's Science Fictions (he is great), now a days I'm going with Sydne Sheldon.
Anyway bye N have fun (but pls also try to remind me sometimes)

its boring cos it does not tell your story.
however, MJI is really a nice man, but truly he is not man of literature, but offcourse a good storyteller.
sheldon is a good thing to read in the toilet,no doubdt.
can you try with isabel allende?

I just tell what I like to read, it dosen't mean that you have to agree with me but you can't also blow me away like this (It's rude).
Can you be more polite in your word Pls?


p.s. why everyone keep saying they love books but they can't find the time to read them!!

I am one of those people who literally carry a book with me wherever I go. My parents long ago resigned trying to make me behave like a normal teenager. So every year that passes leaves me a little more "weird" i guess. Reading started out as a hobby for me but somewhere it became a parallel reality for me. It is my recluse, my private getaway. Mostly I read romance novels, but I am open to other genres as well. Unfortunately I am not familiar with a lot of Bangla novels. I mostly read Himu's stories by Humayun Ahmed. But I guess I wouldn't mind trying other authors once I am back in Bangladesh.
I am giddy to find a reader's group of Bangladesh and I am glad to be a part of this growing group! :D


You should try
Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality. One of the best books I have ever read! I'd even go so far as to say it's better than the original.
