I had been pretty stuck up with my exams for the past fortnight but now that they are over I can finally concentrate on my dear dear books! I have so many of them waiting eagerly to be read. Sigh!
Books have always been my best companion. No questions. No demand. Any book-addicts out there?

@thaMARKER hey! that's a record as well! LOL. But you must read something right?
Well I've started on Far from the Madding Crowd by Thomas Hardy. Now that you've mentioned 'school' I must say that I got this one from school as a prize but never bothered to read it. Gonna do it now. :)

@else34 Yeah me too. Although I am still a teen (19) but I started reading books since I was barely 11. I share a deep love for them and it's a pleasure to know that now that now there won't be anything to bother me while I enjoy their company. ^_^

@gudheart Oh you must be really busy then. I am free for now but as soon as my classes begin I will find no time for doing any extra reading. This sem I will have even lesser time as I will be taking some French classes as well. :/

@The_Bong_Woman I'm always reading.Now its a book called"Sunrise in the west" by Edith pargareter/ Ellis Peters. I love historical romances.
'Tess' is one of my all time favourite heroines, I find Hardy's novels good but they sadden me too....thats the art of story telling I guess

@responsiveme Me too! Do tell how you find the book you're reading now. And yes, sadness has it's own peculiar charm and beauty and Hardy is a maestro when it comes to the portrayal of sadness in such ingenious ways.
