Re: tell us about a book!
this was in fact the only book he wrote as far as I remember. All his other stuff is in his essays and forewords. but yeah aphorisms in this book about “life” are just amazing…easy to put it in words but hardest to practice…
re: Tell us about a book!!!
good read, it was of particular interest as I have been to all the piazzas and churches he noted so it was kinda interesting. I do feel that the whole hassassin angle was built up but then fizzled out.

The Things We Do For Love by Kristin Hannah ....a great story about two women...Author is very expressive and descriptive on the charactors..When I was reading the book I could picture and feel each one of the charactors in the story...I wouldn't recommend it to parents who have gone through miscarraige(s) though....the story is too sad :(

currently readin grapes of wrath, for school - it sucks dont read it . its the longest book i have ever read (620 ish pages) :(
What are U reading...?!?!
Just finished reading 'Angels & Demons', by the much hyped dan brown of 'the da vinci code'. A great read, very addictive, you cant stop once you pop. Brown tries to unveil the secret of the illumaniti...
So what are you reading apart from the hogwash (with all due respect) on gupshup... ?!?!
Re: What are your reading...?!?!
I just finished 'zar guzisht' by Mushtaq Ahmed Yusufi.. its said to be his biographical account but mainly about ppl he came across in his career as a successfull banker.
Re: What are your reading…!!!
is it in urdu.. n how would u rate on a scale of 1 (not bad) - 10 (excellent read)
Re: What are your reading...?!?!
A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius by David Eggers........ it didnt break my heart!
but a good read
Better than dan brown;)
Re: What are your reading...?!?!
Digital Fortress. Believe me this one is much more like plot for a bond movie. or I rather say a cross of tomb Raider and Bond.
Re: What are your reading…!!!
yup its in urdu.. and its more of a humourous episode of the author’s life..
to me yousufi is one of the best ‘Tanz-o-mazah’ writers in urdu.. i simply love his work( which in 4 books i guess. correct me if i m wrong)
for me its 6-7 of 10
re: Tell us about a book!!!
and what do u have to say abt it.. i am planning to read it…
Re: What are your reading…!!!
Holy Wars By Karen Armstrong. She is absolutely brilliant…A must read for anyone interest in knowing Religious history…
Recently finished: East Pakistan, 1969-1971 The End Game by Brig. (Retd) Siddiqi. Excellent, brief yet informative for readers wishing to know how Pak army, politicians, religious leaders and establishment screwed up OR How not to run a country…
Re: tell us about a book!
i concur, that would be such a relief, i mean all i am doing is looking up for reviews abt the book if i find the title mentioned is interesting… n start rating also on a scale of 1 (not bad) - 10 (excellent read)
Re: What are your reading…!!!
coming of age in mississippi by ann moody :k:
re: Tell us about a book!!!
I read it a few weeks ago. It’s o.k. Interesting, but a bit predictable. I don’t recommend you buy it. I would give it a 7/10. The first 100 pages are very difficult to read. After that, the story picks up.
re: Tell us about a book!!!
dont worry mate, i am just gonna get it issued for my siblings college library… 
Re: What are U reading…!!!
its a good book, but I didn’t like the end. He was overly dramatic in the end. I just started five people you will meet in heaven by Mitch Albom.
