I do not know when exactly started reading books, papers, magazines, even people..!

My father was a great reader, writer! At home, we were having fewer furniture than books!! 

Bed is a multipurpose place to spend time... Pillow use to use as a support on our crossed legs while sitting on the floor, bed.. And keep book on it while reading, one side of bed was always filled with various types, subjects of books, In books paper slips to mark the pages as a bookmarks! Written some notes on book pages! By smelling the book pages I can guess how old is the book.. Even the colour of the pages...bright white to yellowiesh.. Brown means the newest to oldest book!

Generally, he use to read books at night, as in day time he was busy with his office work and meeting peoples....

We sometimes ask him to read books in day time, please switch of the lights, we are not able to sleep...it is just as an excuse..

When I sleep, I really do not know what is happning around me, many times my mother or father takes off my specs from my eyes, two-three times my spect damaged as it come under my body while I was in deep sleep... Some of the books in my hand made me to sleep, some made me to awake whole night to read it full... Some time I dream about the characters, places I read in Books, which comes to meet me, talk with me, play with me too!!


As I grow I carried some of the habits from my father.. I also started reading various types books, but very choosey... Books which in small size, small letters, yellowiesh papers I can not read... Few subjects like horror gener.. Is not my choice! Language.. Simple english, easy to read without refering dictionary..Matathi my mother tongue .. So first choice goes to marathi, second goes to english, thired..one more....top of all is the books which attracts me by looking at it's cover pages, front and back.. Nioneed some one to refer me or not, it is bestseller or not, very randomely based on my mood of the day, I use to pick up the books from book shelf, book exhibitions and purchase it!!

I do read books from back pages...some time random pages..books which I can start randomly reading and complete full reading from first character of first page to last character to last pages!!

How you complete tevSreading this book so fast? Did you read it or just turned pages?

Sometimes my friends use to ask me!!

Hey, It is secret... Having special power of the reading book, without opening it!!! I do read fast, as I do not read one character to next character of the words and word by word.. It's like reading of line, by practicing, I can do it!!

I am sure.. You must be doing the same..


My reading habit of books, I am applying with people too.. I look them as a book and read their expressions! Like a character written in any story books!! I catagories them likes, do not likes, do not know yet!!

I am sure you can do it, myself and my friend Gauri use to discuss on books and after reading it we use to share our reading experience, tell the story what you have read? Some time without asking any questions to each others!!! So excited to share what we have read.. Then we have to tossed who will tell first!!!

Now, I burn the lights at nights for reading books, study? No study happens in process!!.. And father smile and say .. It's enough for the day, switch off lights and sleep with books, you will get sound sleep and both of us start laughing!!!

Sound sleep!!! Sleeping with Books!!!
