Looks like this is my lucky week! Not only did I buy three of the books I've been eying for some time now but a dear friend sent me some valuable novels that are sure to be added to my library.
Here are the new additions to my collection:

| Currently reading |
Last year after reading the darkly comedic 'A case of exploding Mangoes', I had fallen in love with it's brilliant author- Mohammed Hanif. This is his second book. So far in, I can't shake the feeling that Hanif should have stuck to his former writing style that won him worldwide acclaim. Satire is definitely his forte. Bhatti, nevertheless still has me gripped.
Best line: ''Because love is a runaway charya!''

| Second in line |
Hailed as one of the twentieth century's finest novels, I think this is going to be Naipaul's best book I'll read.

| To-read |
My love affair with Marquez seems to be a lasting one. This would be the third book I'll read by this literary giant.
4) Like the Flowing River by Paulo Coelho 'A breathtaking collection of reflections from one of the world's best loved storytellers, Paulo Coelho.' Goodreads.com
I've had a love and hate relationship with Coelho. While I treasured The Alchemist, I swore off all his books after reading Veronica decides to die. However, it's been sometime since I've read any of his other novels. Also, his thought provoking blog posts have finally prompted me to go back to him and give this one a shot.
5) The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho “And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.”
Of course I've already read this one and I don't think it needs any description. ;)How many of these books have you read? No spoilers please!
