I thought " Pick it for me" meant picking out one book to read.
Or at the most, two.
That must have been the original idea... not 4 or 5.... :D :P

that is when people prune the TBR to some small list they immediately want to read. But I had to be pick from the entire TBR list, so 5 books :)

message 65: by Harini (new)

Harini (harinia) | 7 comments Hi Garv,
It was a difficult choice since all the books on your list were highly rated and sounded interesting. I finally narrowed it down to these two:
Man's Search for Meaning (for the topic)
The Fellowship of The Ring (LOTR must be read just for the beauty of the language)

Anu (notsoradha) | 441 comments Arpit wrote: "Thanks Anuradha. All are lovely books which I intended to read in near future. I will first pick Cosmos which is also a secret santa gift for me :)"

Hey Glen, here are my picks, you have some very nice ones on that shelf:)

1. Matilda by Roald Dahl
2. The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien

You can read one or both of them. Personal suggestion for The Hobbit is to listen to the audiobook by Nichol Williamson. Happy reading :)

A musical - think it was well received and well reviewed and I liked the story though I didn't fully watch it. You can check that out on IMDB.

WoW! am yet to start the book that was picked for me. :( & here you are finished with all selected ones.


message 100: by Glen (new)

Glen D'souza | 207 comments Finished "The Hobbit". Was way better than I thought it would be.
Man, the movies made Mr Bilbo Baggins seem lame.
Reading the book turned a whole new light on the hobbit. Thanks for picking this one, Jayanth. I would never have started this without your recommendation.
