Well thought i will put up my book wait list.

Currently reading: ( since almost 2 weeks, somehow i am finishing books much slower than before. Do not have sustained periods of reading) A short history of nearly everything - Bill Bryson
A fascinating book that is improving my general knowledge tremendously. It is like instant science, without the bothersome equations and elaborate theories. Just concepts explained very succinctly and with an entertaining approach with little tit bits that make you realize that scientists aren't as dull as they are made out to be. I am done with half the book. Planning to finish it over this weekend

Wait list

1) Shantaram: Have heard so much about this book that i have to absolutely read it. Guess i will a buy a copy of this book.

2) Kite runner: Another highly recommended book. The book is there in Mica library. Have observed three people reading it and whoever has picked it up has taken a maximum of 2 days to finish it off since it is a very addictive read.

3) The long tail: A book i picked up at crosswords recently. Had a read an article about the concept of long tail and liked it. So picked it up and hoping for some value add here.

4) The Goal 2: Had read the first part and absolutely loved it. Talks about operations management but in the laymans language and extremely informative.

Well this is my wish list for the next month and odd. Hopefully i would be able to rev up my reading speed and fiish most of them. Will keep updating about this quest of mine.
