Austin, Not psychological thrillers. I mentioned popular fiction..."

Selva, its on on tbr and Im reading it with the Crime and Thriĺer group. Every quarter, the mod makes a special list of 8-10 books from.which we choose thoae 4 that all agree on because its more interesting or easily available. This month we will be reading The Rising Man

Leena, I asked u something: )

Bad decision to chase by MSD though the pitch looks easy for batting.

[Leena]

TTPBM same"

Neevr give up hope Selva. Theres always light at the end of the tunnel. Yours seems to be a little extra long.

[Selva]

Hopefully :) Thank you for some encouragement.

TTPBM murder mystery or political thrillers?

[Austin]

Murder mystery is good but I like Political thrillers more. Loved the books by Frederick Forsyth and Daniel Silva.

TTPBM : Your favourite state in India other than your home state?

T

[Austin]

MSD may have been influenced by the rain factor. Also CSK has a powerful batting line-up. Except Rayudu, who has been off-colour in the past two seasons, the rest are mostly in good nick.

[Austin]

I mean two seasons, not past two seasons

[Manya]

Himachal Pradesh because here at my place it's very hot...

TTPBM : Same

Meghalaya

TTPBM : Your favourite union territory in India?

[Yash]

Delhi — always and forever. (sorry for butting in)

TTPBM, same?

[Austin]

Andaman and Nicobar Islands without a doubt. I was born there and lived till age 5.

TTPBM : Favourite snack?

[Manya]

Momos. North India has got some of the best momo sellers especially Delhi NCR .

[Leena]

one quality sorry for typo

[Preethi]

Being condescending

TTPBM - A song that everyone loves but you hate

[Selva]

Don't remember anything recent. But there was a football world cup anthem composed by Ricky Martin, it was quite peppy and popular but I never quite liked it. And the Tamil song Singapenne by A.R.Rahman and another number by A.R.Rahman...they were hits here in TN.

TTPBM same

[Austin]

The jai ho song. I never liked it.

TTPBM : A song that you like but everyone else seem to hate

[Selva]

I have no idea. Maybe I like certain songs more than others but nothing that is hated.

TTPBM American sit-coms or K-dramas?

[Yash]

I love both for their own separate reasons. Kdramas have a unique depth in story and characters that I've seldom found in sitcoms. But then, for pure entertainment, it's a sitcom that I end up playing while eating dinner. So it's a tough call — can't commit to one.

TTPBM, same?

[Austin]

I am yet to watch a K drama.

TTPBM : Coconut water or sugarcane juice?

[Selva]

Sugarcane juice, maybe

TTPBM same

This popped up for me on my Google
Austin, this list might help you choose your next thriller

[Selva]

Leena, you answered my question. Page refresh issue. Thanks.

I watch news n see around me and certain events inspire me and certain things reassure me that life isn't as bad as sometimes I think it is. But can't think of a particular person who inspires me. I got randomly inspired by ppl who make it against overwhelming odds, recent example being batter Rinku Singh of KKR.

TTPBM same

[Leena]

that's a very commendable way of picking up inspiration. In my case, I look at the negative people do or say ans opine and decide I'm never going to be that person. so whoever I am today js a result of that.

TTPBM: your most fav show and why

[Austin]

OMG, how did you read such a huge book?! I am feeling totally exhausted even after reading a 789 pages long book, even though it was a 5 star book for me.
