Book Reading

Books!!!
A man's jewellery-one of my professors used to say so. And certainly why not? What is the purpose of jewellery, the real purpose if you try to dig in comes out to be-- In the old days people used to put their money into jewellery so that in ill times, this could act as a LIFE saver.
And so, books fit pretty well into this definition.
But i have never liked my academic books . That is probably why i am in the IT industry at the moment and doing myriad of mundane stuff. But i wont get into how-bad-IT-is right now.
So, i developed a good reading habit while i was preparing for my mba entrance (as mentioned i m into IT rite now and so not doing MBA but may be in near future).
I read a variety of stuff ranging

from philosophies and ideologies of Ayn Rand to drama and suspense of Sidney Sheldon/ Agatha Christie..
from scientific fiction of Dan Brown to life realities by Kahlil Gibran..
from complex Mein Kampf to simple-yet-beatiful Jonathan Livingston Seagull...
from life inspiring lessons of Robin Sharma/Paulo Coelho/Lance Armstrong to i-hate-life kinds..
from strategic beauties like the goal, the blink, the tipping point, freakonomics, you can win,power/future shock types to over hyped literature of Chetan Bhagat (i hate to use the word literature for this guy--I have always felt my dad writes better diaries than what he does in his so-made bestsellers)...
from beautiful character depiction by Mario Puzo to ideas-are-bigger-than-man writings of OSHO...

So, i recommend all you guys to READ. Read till u can and then read some more...
It wud change your life and there are benefits of outsmarting anyone at any instance whenever u want. But only if u are a voracious reader...
