Guest Gunner Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 Ncert की इतिहास की पुस्तकें :hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical:
Sooda Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 Ncert की इतिहास की पुस्तकें lol The Hitchhikers Guide books are excellent. Especially the first three, IMHO the 5th part in the trilogy is a bit of let down. The joy if it lies in the fact you can read them ANY number of times and laugh all over again. Work of Genius, Doug Adams is a legend. And the characters are great. I read this book called Money by Martin Amis recently and found it very funny
chanakya Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 horrible OP If you haven't mentioned Terry Pratchett's Discowrld series the op has no value :P Wodehouse Saki Douglas Adams/ Terry Pratchett for this generation

Sooda Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 I have to say I have tried reading Discworld books, i know many people who love them, but I could never really get into them. Do not see what all the fuss is about to Kill the mocking Bird Is this the Harper Lee book? or a spoof of To Kill A Mockingbird Are you sure its one of the funniest books ever??
triam Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 horrible OP If you haven't mentioned Terry Pratchett's Discowrld series the op has no value :P Wodehouse Saki Douglas Adams/ Terry Pratchett for this generation Concur. Carl Hiasen is very good and so is Bill Waterson (surprised no one included calvin and hbbes yet)
Riley's Girl Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 Concur. Carl Hiasen is very good and so is Bill Waterson (surprised no one included calvin and hbbes yet) I love Calvin & Hobbes! Also Jim Davis' Garfield.
