This week I am participating in Book Blogger Hope hosted by Jennifer at
Crazy for Books. It is a great way to meet new bloggers, find some new blogs to follow and gain some great readers for your own blog. This is my first time participating in this event. I hope that I will find some great blogs to follow!
I started this blog with intentions of posting about my life events. Over the time, this blog has steered more toward books with occasional posts about CPA exams, March for babies, and life in general. I love books. I remember one of my first books were
Cam Jansen series (a girl with photographic memory). I read mostly fiction and some non-fictions occasionally. I read whatever comes my way except for mystery, sci-fi (Ender Saga is an exception), and romance (few exceptions). I usually just browse the fiction shelves at my local library and see if there is something I like. As for Non-fiction, I enjoyed
Outliers (my favorite),
Freakonomics,
Eat, Pray, Love, and
Missiles in Cuba. I also tend to lean more toward books by authors who are Indian or has Indian origins (Jhumpa Lahiri) and if the topic relates to India, and the culture. Right now, my To-Read list has too many books. I read book reviews and if I like the short description, I add the book to my list. That is about it.
Update (5/8/2010): I discovered the following blogs thru the Book Blogger Hope:
It was fun and would love to do it again!

Popped over via the Hop. Your list of books sounds freakishly similar to the sorts of things I read (and don't read).
Hi, I am just stopping by from the Book Blogger Hop...I really like that you took the time to search out those books you read as a kid. They must have made quite an impression.
Checking you out on Hop, beautiful layout!
