I spent my previous years completely enjoying with my kid...I throughly enjoyed all his tiny accomplishments and was totally unaware of myself all these years...But when he is going to school now,I'm getting a couple of hours for myself...So,thought of reading some books...Its been a long time I stopped reading...
When I wanted to read,God also helped me...I came to know about the 35th Chennai book fair....The metro book fair...Indeed its the largest book fair, I have ever seen in my life....I was waiting since one month and planned to be there on one fine sunday...In our home town Rajahmundry,The book's exhibition use to be organized with a couple of tents and the books were in hundreds...thats it....OMG here the stalls are in hundreds..

Actually I liked Tikku's books more than mine...Those are really very colourful with beautiful drawings and all....I envy him....:-)...

But the funny thing here is,Most of the stalls are in Tamil,the language I can not understand...But enjoyed just seeing the book covers itself...:-) Infact there are several stalls from all over India having so many English books also...But this time I'm unable to find books of my language (Telugu)..I heard every year a couple of Telugu book stalls will be there like Visaalaandhra and Bala Saraswathi book depot...But this year due to the increase of almost 150 Tamil stalls,they have not allotted stalls for these two...So,I missed them...Neverthless I bought few books (ofcourse all are old classics..I love them...)...Enough books for me to enjoy...Wish me luck...:-)
