Selecting 10 books that had an impact on my life is almost like writing a mini autobiography :).. Well I am not going to rank them in order... Shortlisting was a difficult task.. here goes...
As the Crow Flies (novel) changed my life. This book talked about nuances of being a marketer and retailer. I just got hooked so an engineer at heart converted to a marketer by profession!! Salute to my all time favorite author Jeffrey Archer
Harry Potter all seven books are such integral part of my life that. Thanks J.K. Rowling for creating this magical world.
Great Expectations was part of my syllabus. The most vivid characters. I owe my reading habbit to this novel. Specially the scene when Miss Havisham introduced. Charles Dickens thanks to you I started reading.
James Bond books no explanations required :). Ian Fleming created the most iconic character of 20th century.
Sherlock Holmes the most memorable fictional character ever. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle set a benchmark for authors. And yes I think Sherlock Holmes - Jeremy Brett was better than your whatsapping youngling...
Jwalamukhi ke phool was the first I read about Chanakya not just as a historical figure.
Empire of the Moghul series by @Alex Rutherford. If you like historical fiction this is a must read.
Mister Meddle's Muddles was the first book I borrowed from my school library Hartley's High School. Complete laugh riot and some really funky ideas to mess around. #respect Enid Blyton Club
Millennium series (Millénium) its sad that Steig Larsson didn't get to see how the world loved and adored his work.
Marketing Warfare by Al Riesand Jack Trout is a must read.
I feel this list has some very notable omissions. A few names that are at par India's Biggest Cover-up, #Tempest, #TippingPoint, Hercule Poirot and...
This has been a very nostalgic experience. I can almost feel the covers of each and everyone of these and how and from where did I manage to get them...
If you love books and if the fragrance of a new book or an old leather bound edition give you a high go ahead and do this... you will love it
