The first book that comes to my mind when I'm asked the question "What book do you recommend I read?" is 'The Kaoboys of R&AW" by B.Raman.
It outlines the very base of the 'espionage' agency of India, the R&AW, how it was formed, how it used to be, important milestone and what it is now, in a very simple format, and provides not only an interesting, but also a very enlightening read. This layman's introduction to the R&AW will turn him/her into someone referred to as a "R&AW expert" in his/her friend circle. All thanks to RN Kao, the father of R&AW, and the author, Raman.



Another interesting read is 'Q&A', the basis of Slumdog Millionaire.

Your favorite books/novels and how they affected you?

Hello friends.
We all may be reading some books,novels etc etc and I am sure some may have them in their cars too.
But like diamonds are different from other gems same way we all may be having some favorites of those novels.
Now simple is the question:-
  • Which is the favorite novel of yours?
  • How it affected you or your life?If any.
  • What was the main highlight of the book and why must one read it?If you recommend the same book to others too.

Waiting to hear from you guys...
