The Library

Probably one of the little joys of my life right now is the Institute’s Library purchasing an oh-so-large number of best sellers, recommended by most of us book-worms here so that one gets to issue novels and read them at any given point of time.

I am just about to finish the entire Jeffery Archer collection after which I plan to endorse Wilbur Smith. Albeit, some of his earlier books had put me to sleep, Warlock is THE book to read. WS brings ancient Egypt alive with the great Pharohs in all their grand regalia – in a nutshell, Warlock is superb.

In the line-up is Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams and the rest of his works. I need to strictly re-read Adams for I have forgotten most of the story. I wont say the same for The Fountainhead by Ann Rand – I cant seem to re-read it although I have already been explained about the book by Rand supporters here ;)

Managed to happily re-read the entire collection of Tintin and Asterix. These days, the library is my favourite place to be. Back in my own college, the private library in town used to charge a hefty 20% on each book not to mention astronomical delay-fines which we gladly paid for a chance to read good books.

I guess one of the reasons why I like my job is because of The Library. And life is good.
