Stephen** King-The Stand
This really got me reading again...Its abt something that goes wrong -very wrong... The author keeps the suspense always thru different characters revolving around the main theme..Extremely Good reading..Got me hooked to Stephen King..Really the King of Horror suspense.
Jeffrey Archer-**Not a penny more not a penny less
A cute story on revenge without too many complications..Simple ways to give it back..Especially the end..The story unfolds to the most surprising end..
Read the book..I can assure you you wont be disappointed.
John Grisham- The Partner..
got the book thru a colleague who swore on the author .Grisham is a master in the art of using legal dramas to his advantage..It may be a drag for some but for ppl who like dramas and dont mind good control of a story situation this is a great read. Check out the ending..It will sweep you away. Looking forward to other Grisham books like The Runaway Jury/The firm later.
Dan Brown- **The Da Vinci Code
I can only say one word-Amazing-This guy really researches his subject before writing..The book changed my outlook . There were no loose ends no hidden agenda , pure literary genius.. Brought in his point so well in the end..
Fredrick Forysth- The day of the Jackal-
The best suspense I have read..It was just mind boggling with the plot and the way the events unfolded.. Nail biter to the finish. The author has a futuristic angle to his writing which gives us great pleasure to read.
JD Salinger-Catcher in the Rye
Read it in one sitting in a flight from Singapore to Bangalore . Just an episode in a life of a 16 yr old kid and the way the future changes..small book. It can be a drag for many but it is written in a way it can be an eye opener for any adolescent..Sent be back to those days really..
Looking forward to a lot more reviews like this in future..would be helpful if they are not spoilers of the ending.
