Ok. You read brainy stuff.

I read brainy stuff too, but sometimes I like to throw some mindless crap in to lighten the load.
Do you ever read light stuff?

i read a LOT of light stuff. Did you miss the mention of 'Artemis Fowl'? It's light n fluffy n loads of fun :)
I also throw in a thriller every now and then :))

Millennium series was great! I fell in love with Lisbeth Salander. Just watched all three movies too. Didn't like them much after reading the books. The last one was not bad though.

I've been trying to get my hands on
Cleopatra, A Life by Stacy Schiff;
The Emperor of All Maladies: A Biography of Cancer by Siddhartha Mukherjee;

If you like Chemistry, you might enjoy, The Disappearing Spoon by Sam Kean.
I'm also just finishing The Sword of Truth series by Terry Goodkind. It's a huge series but I enjoyed it quite a bit. Slightly pedantic and violent in parts but still a good series.
Umm.. what else? Hah, dunno if I mentioned Stumbling on Happiness by Daniel Gilbert. I thought it was a quick, insightful and fun read.

P.S.: Happy Reading!

Thank you SO MUCH! Sure would try laying my hands on the books you've mentioned. Yes, I do love chemistry (but a pretty big zero in physic) :)
BTW, I read the latest offering of Jeffry Archer, 'And, thereby hangs a tale'; full of cliches (what would u expect anyway :)

Beward Artemis Fowl ;)

You might find yourself spending waaay too much time on the embedded codes and secrets throughout the books... but that's half the fun too!

No cheating with Google!

For a bit of breezy but more adult Harry Potter like fare, give the Dresden Files a read... zippy but fun!
