You should have mentioned it, I would have picked one for you. Next time this happens, leave a message for me here. I pair up if someone's partner does not turn up with someone whose partner did not turn up or I pick a book for them.
Hi Sehrish, I choose ' Verity' from your shelf. Its a fast paced thriller which I hope you will like.

Hi Nathan,
Quite sad that the last time your partner didn't pick for you.
Not happening this time. As a compensation I'm gonna pick two books for you.
Hehe kidding.
Ok I will but you can read either of the two or both.
1. Confessions
This is a very dark story of Revenge and trust me, you wouldn't wanna miss this thriller. Jap authors are awesome
2. Ender's Game
Science fiction at it's best. I am sure you won't see the twist coming.
Hope you enjoy both. Since I've read both the books I'd be open for discussion too :)
Happy Reading

Hi Devansh Dhrafani, I choose 'The immortals of meluha' for you.
Hi Sushma manava I choose 'The Return of Sherlock Holmes' for you

Hello Shrikant,
I forgot to update my list, I've read two by two by Nicholas Sparks, will read Safe Heaven. You seem to like Nicholas Sparks books a lot. I always get his recommendations when we are paired.
I would recommend Two towers by J R R Tolkien or Fire and Blood by George R R Martin.
Happy Reading, Merry Christmas, and a very Happy New year. !!
@Shashank ShrivastavaMy pick for you is Brink by SLB.
Happy reading ..
@Caroline, I saw your shelf and I think I have a couple of options for you. I'll pick for you three books and you can choose any one of them. (Yay? Hopefully.)Here you go:
To Kill a MockingbirdThe Color PurpleTuesdays with Morrie
I've read and loved all three of them, so really, have at it! <3
