ONE BOOK THAT CHANGED MY LIFE..

There are many books that have helped me along the way.really cannot pick just one. But the one that I really liked was "The purpose driven life" By Rick Warren.It unpacks the the big questions of personal meaning and motivation and points the way to a more purpose filled life."Magnificiant Obsession". by Llyod Douglas.It is a classic novel of goodwill, compassion and service to others.
Another book I liked was FINDING JOY By Charlotte Davis.. 101 ways to fee your spirit and dance with life.


THE BOOK YOU HAVE READ MORE THAN ONCE.

MAYA ANGELOU "I know why the caged bird sings." Namesake By Jhumpa Lahiri and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall By Anne Bronte."The prophet By Khalil Gibran."
I have read a few others but cannot think of the names .


ONE BOOK YOU WOULD WANT ON A DESERT ISLAND

If I am stranded on a desert Island.First I am going to look for company, then something to eat, then enjoy the beauty around, sleep as much as I want, then write, keep a journal and when I am tired of that I would like to read the " Harry Potter series." may be I can been transported to "Hogwarts castle".


ONE BOOK THAT MADE YOU LAUGH:

SHPOHOLIC & SHOPOHOLIC & SISTER written by Sophie Kinsella. It tells of the one woman shopping phenomenon Becky Bloomwood. It is a heartwarming tale of married life, best friends, and long lost sisters. and the perils of shopping and the things you must have.And also Shopoholic takes Manhattan. I also enjoyed Funny & Farshi.

ONE BOOK THAT MADE YOU CRY:

"A FINE BALANCE" written by ROHINTON MISTRY. this book captures the cruelty and corruption, dignity and heroism of India. It takes place in 1975 where four strangers- a spirited widow, a young student, and two tailors will be thrust together to share an apartment and face an unknown futeure. The characters move from distrust to friendship and eventually to Love. It made me cry. I think it is one of the best books I had read.


ONE BOOK YOU WISH YOU HAD WRITTEN
I can think of many books that I have read over the years that I wished I had written or could write. I really cannot name just one.

ONE BOOK THAT YOU WISH HAD NEVER BEEN WRITTEN:

I have to agree with passerby .."Mathematics" I still cant get it and dont think I ever will. I will go to my grave never knowing how to calculate a % . A simple thing I still have a hard time with. It has been explained to me over and over but I still dont get it.My answer to the problem on the right would be (C).
