Damini | 2375 comments I gotta read the Fountainhead as well!


message 15102: by Hajarath Prasad (new)

Hajarath Prasad Abburu (hajarath) | 9245 comments Sri - It was my second book I ever read ( first was Mother , another great book ) and it was pretty dense. I still remember a sentence in the preface . " If a writer were to write only for his time, I would break my pen " and it had me.

Ini : yeah , I experienced the same , I just didn't want the book to end . I reread the favorite parts so many times :D

Btw , have you guys read Anthem ??


message 15103: by Srividya (new)

Srividya Vijapure (theinkedmermaid) No Harry.. am yet to read both Anthem and Mother.. both have been in my mind for a long time..


message 15104: by Hajarath Prasad (new)

Hajarath Prasad Abburu (hajarath) | 9245 comments Sri - Anthem wasn't as good as the other two but it had one mind blowing revelation and I was like WOW :D


message 15105: by Srividya (new)

Srividya Vijapure (theinkedmermaid) @Harry - ya I heard that.. that's why I put it off at that time.. I read three Ayn Rands back to back and then had enough.. :P :P Too much to process my mind said :P :P

Btw has any one of you read Exodus by Leon Uris???

Hajarath Prasad Abburu (hajarath) | 9245 comments No Sri ..what's it about ?


message 15107: by Em*Greedy* (Iniya) (new)

Em*Greedy* (Iniya) (iniya_n) @hp, sri haven't read both!!


message 15108: by Srividya (new)

Srividya Vijapure (theinkedmermaid) It is a book that talks about the treatment meted out on Jews in Europe and how they traveled to Palestine and then formed Israel. its a delightful read.. historical fiction but truly moving in how the author describes the struggle and the ultimate formation of the nation.


message 15109: by Srividya (new)

Srividya Vijapure (theinkedmermaid) Of course it is pretty one sided in its portrayal so may not be a completely true rendition of actual facts but it is a great read.


message 15110: by Em*Greedy* (Iniya) (new)

Em*Greedy* (Iniya) (iniya_n) @sri historical fiction?!/ wow... I always love historical fiction.. Will try that..!!

message 15114: by Srividya (new)

Srividya Vijapure (theinkedmermaid) Ya Ini - its a nice book.. it took me about half a day to get into it.. but once in I was hooked.. i stayed awake till 4 in the morning and completed the book the same day!!! :) :)


message 15115: by Srividya (new)

Srividya Vijapure (theinkedmermaid) @Harry and Ini - have you ever experienced this - I mean where you read multiple books by the same author, especially back to back and find that the other books don't really match up to the magic created by the first one? I have felt it several times, which is why I usually mix my authors and genres so that it does not happen.. but i want to know if others go through that too??


message 15116: by Srividya (new)

Srividya Vijapure (theinkedmermaid) Good night everyone.. :) Am off to bed.. see y'all tomorrow :) :)


message 15117: by Em*Greedy* (Iniya) (new)

Em*Greedy* (Iniya) (iniya_n) @sri yes.. I have felt too.
. Haven't read many. But there were few where it didn't satisfy expectations..!!
