Hello Aishwarya,
My picks for you are -
1. All Systems Red - A short and light read, I loved this and the sequels. The story's told from the first person POV of a very relatable SecUnit Robot.
If you prefer the audiobook, the narration is fantastic!
2. Project Hail Mary - I skimmed through the beginning chapters, definitely an engaging read, choice award winner too. Again the audiobook narrator of this one is infamous Ray porter (the voice of Darkseid)
Enjoy!

Hi Arpit, do you want me to pick 1 or 2 books for you?
Hi Austin, I pick The Cobra by Frederick Forsyth for you. You can pick 1 book from my shelf.
Hi Yasha! Beautiful name..I pick The Guest List by Lucy Foley for you.. I read it last year and it was a good one.. Hope you enjoy it too!
Arpit wrote: "Hi Austin, I pick The Cobra by Frederick Forsyth for you. You can pick 1 book from my shelf."
Ok, Arpit. I pick Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier for you. I read it eons ago in 2005, if my memory serves me right. I liked this book very much. It's more than just a typical romance book. It also has mystery, intrigue, deceptions, plot twists, an enigmatic setting, you name it. Enjoy the book.

Thanks. I have been meaning to read it for more than a year!
@ Austin, Also the book is set in city state of Monaco of which I have little to no knowledge.
Hey Selva, I pick Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir for you.
Hope you like it.
I would like you to pick one book for me.

Hello Gokul,
Thanks for the picks, will try read both. Although I prefer reading paperbacks, will try audiobook too- As you say the narration is that good.
Here are my picks for you:
1) The Spy and the Traitor: The Greatest Espionage Story of the Cold War
2)1984, it might turn out be one tough read, but if you can get hold onto it you will find the insights derived are true to all times.
3)Exhalation
Read one or read all
Happy Reading! : )

Hey Leena, thanks for picking these books. I have been meaning to read Murakami for a long time. So Kafka on the shore is good. I have also been meaning to read The Golden Notebook for a long time. So I will read these two I guess. As for blindness, I guess it got added to this shelf by mistake as I have already read it.
