TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD by Harper Lee is a book to be slowly eaten relishing each bite; it opened the gates of my childhood memories & all the gr8 time I had with my brother; as for the character Atticus, its one of my most favourite fictional characters ever.
THE FOUNTAINHEAD by Ayn Rand is one novel where I right away fell in luv with the central male character, Howard Roark. I just loved the way every charchter was brought to life steadily, page by page, till they grew on U- the irritating Peter Keating who reminds me of so many of the people I have met in real life, Ellsworth Toohey, the kind of stuff successful people in today's world unfortunately are made of, the crazy ways of Dominique, all f them, even the smallest role played in this gr8 piece is wirth a second thought.
Dark Canyon- This is one of Louis L'Amour's most beautiful piece. this author captures me in his vivid & lucid descriptions of the Western era, the cabin houses, the costumes, the social sentiments, each of it. His writing style is such that he transports u 2 different time and u start living with the characters; u taste the stale summer air in the hills, u share their excitement, all of it.
of his other novels which i 've liked are To Tame A Land and Connagher. Connagher being one the most beautiful love stories I have read, one u might find peculiar cos no where do word as I luv u, honey or anything similar does come. Yet, its touching in many ways.
Wuthering Heights: One hell of a journey this one is. Its got few characters and they are all crazy; but if u take a closer look, they resemble characters around you in real world, its just that every character is accentuated in them to heights! Its a numero uno tale of passion and luv and despite the melancholic spin of events, it has a sunny sweet end.
