Had a marathon session to run through the first Codex Alera book - Furies of Calderon.
Definitely unputdownable

SO how many of you read on kindle and who reads the dead trees?

I read on both.
But I like to buy paperbacks. (but yeah sounds weird when you say 'dead tress' )

Wise and Otherwise by Sudha Murthy....
Based on her personal experiences while doing the charity work

Hows it? I remember someone saying good words about her books, but I have never read any.

@mathrisk, it's nice and it seems it's based on truth and characterises the moral values and teachings

I have still not had the time to finish it. From what I read (about 20%), it feels more like a puff piece about the working of the govt from the internals. I would surely say to borrow it.

Nope. It's The World of Ice and Fire. A history book of sorts. The release date for the next book hasn't even been announced yet.
