Definately, Atticus from To Kill a Mockingbird, Henri From Papillon & Steve Jobs as himself from the same book

TTPBM A Book that you've read more than two times?

[Yash]

The Martian, To Kill a Mockingbird, Gone Girl, and quite a few more whose names I can't get right off my head.

TTPBM, what is Goodreads to you? ._.

[Robin P]

Since it is the only social networking site i am active on, you can guess what it means to me. I just love to exist in this world (one place resistant to the drama and negativity that the world is so obsessed with)

TTBM : Any particular book which changed you as an individual or your habits for the better?

[Akanksha]

Rafa by Rafael Nadal.
It did inspire me to be a more positive person for a while. How far I have been able to stick to the idea is a completely different question.

same

[Yash]

Pointing out just one is hard! But I'd pick To Kill a Mockingbird. Though the issues captured in the book can't be generally "found" nowadays, yet, the values and emotions portrayed by the characters, especially that of Atticus, left an indelible mark on me.

TTPBM, what would your ideal world (or utopia) look like?

[Vaibhav]

Being compassionate.

I can recommend many books, but instead of one I will recommend two:

1) The Discovery of India
2) Guns, Germs and Steel

Umm.. ok correction, i read Monster Calls yesterday so its fresh in my mind but I have a lot of favourites so far in my reading career.

The Humans and The Great Gatsby being two of my most favourites. I also loved The Nightinglae by Kristin Hanna.

I don't really like recommending because reading prefences change with persons immediate frame of mind. :)

If the definition of a glitch constitutes things you expected to happen and ultimately don't, sure, I've experienced loads!
No idea if otherwise.

Dune.

TTPBM, what motivates you to read books?

[Akanksha]

Reading's fun, I guess. That is the motivation.

Same

[Yash]

Despite not having the time in hand like I once did, I find that reading gives me a temporary escape from the real world - something that I crave to go back to, and something that I very much enjoy from the bottom of my heart.

I ask the same TTPBM.

[Shree]

I'm happiest when I'm reading. A holiday I can always afford :)

TTPBM: Which book/series/author has influenced you the most? (You can list as many as you'd like)

[Sara]

The Host by Stephanie Meyer
This book had given my 13 yo self a whole new perception of how one should look at a person. This book couldn't have explained in a better way the big difference there is between one's soul and one's body.


TTPBM: What would you pick, mind reading or the ability to be invisible whenever you want?

[Sid]

There are a lot of books that taught me so many things. So reading, to me is continuous learning no matter what genre one reads.
Reading minds and going invisible both are tricky but I would prefer going invincible rather than reading minds and feeling hard

TTPBM: what do you prefer reading books or listening books (audible)

[Akanksha]

I prefer reading but accept that listening to audiobooks is a very conveient (and useful) alternative.

Same

[Shree]

Reading definitely!

TTPBM: If you could enter a fictional world, which would that be? (Books/Movies)

[Yash]

Maybe as a character in the Dune universe. It's so brilliantly written and developed; I can't think of any other universe I would rather want to enter.

TTPBM, same?

[Fenixbird]

Land of the Elves....Lord of the Rings
