2.A Book that I have read more than once
There are many many books I keep going back to!!! :D ALL of L.M.Montgomery's works, the Harry Potter books and Enid Blyton's books(esp The Faraway Tree, Malory Towers,St.Clare's and The riddle of the Boy next door) are books I would have read a million times over! :) Every yearly compulsory reading includes the above and two of my all-time favourites- Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen(words betray me!) and the Moonstone by William Wilkie Collins(a masterpiece in crime!)3. A Book You'd Take onto a Desert Island
Definitely one of the books by L.M.Montgomery- either Anne of the Island, or Anne's House of Dreams or Rilla of Ingleside or The Blue Castle or Emily's Quest or Emily Climbs!!! Oh!!! One of her books... any of her books!!! :D

6. A Book You Wish Had Been Written
Weird question! How would it be a book if it never had been written?!! :O
Well.. i wish my 'books' had already been published! I have to wait a few more years for it guess.. :)
But yeah.. I would love it if 'Anbe Sivam', the movie, had been written as a book! :)

7. Books You Wish Had Never Been Written
Every book has it's own merit! It's own beauty or lack of it! There's something to learn from it-how to write a book or how not to!
And well.. I know how a heart yearns to be published! I'd NEVER wish that even for my enemy-that his/her book remain unpublished!Every book has it's own merit! It's own beauty or lack of it! There's something to learn from it-how to write a book or how not to!

Thanks for taking up the tag Sandhya :)

Harry Potter made you cry.!! gal you are sensitive(and very))
my honest attempt
thanks..
i suggest mother by maxim gorky ...
havent been here a long time howz you?
kite runner is one of my favorite books too and the only book i cried for!!!lovely book!!
you might want to try "the mating season" by PG Wodehouse..its a laugh riot..
and u should read "anything for u ma'am" by tushar raheja. it will make you change ur mind about "A Book You Wish Had never Been Written"..its absolute trash!!
Hmmm... You love chick lit eh?
Nice list! Quite a reader you are, must say! Gone with the wind will try your patience for sure but its worth it. The tragedy in the book shall linger on in your heart. You won't immediately catch it... But it will slowly grow on you... It is the tragedy of a collective society... Of a golden era gone past... Forever.
BTW, it seems you never read anything even remotely 'pulp'. Try reading The Sicilian by Mario Puzo.
Regards,
Ceruleus
