Saw this bookie post on Phoenix's blog, thought I should write about my own favourites as well!

A book that made you laugh: The Inscrutable Americans, Anurag Mathur...simply hillarious!

A book that made you cry: The Kite Runner, Dobby's death in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, One Flew Overthe Cuckooo's Nest

A book that scared you: none till now

A book that disgusted you: disgusted in what sense? If its what I'm thinking, then I actually like disgusting books. In that case, Delhi by Khushwant Singh wins hands down :D

Like Phoenix, I must have missed like a gazillion good ones in this impromptu listing. Books are forever - they are the treasure, unfortunately lost many of them to people who borrowed but never returned back! That includes my first ever girlfriend...
