@Leona yeah that could also apply.Was trying to mean the urge to read, brought by having the book is pushing my speed with my current read smile

But queue would be most appropriate. For simplicity.

My best three, all less that 200 pages each:

1. Man's search for Meaning - Victor Frankl

2. The Alchemist - Paulo Coelho

3. The Prophet - Kharil Gilbran

Just finished reading The Greatest Salesman in the World Part 2 The End of the Story. Quite insightful especially page79-134.
My all time favorite though is The Rich Man from Babylon.
Lets not be vague, we go to hague

@Kriscalf
:) i was confused for a moment... Kizungu ilikuja na meli kwa wengine wetu

Current Reads:
1. I know why the caged bird sings - maya Angelou

2. Touch the top of the World - Erik Weihenmayer

I really am loving the second book, it's the true story of the first blind man in the world to summit mt.Everest. His journey is beyond amazing.. A truly inspiring book. He has done so much yet he's blind. Oh,and he has also hit the 7 summits of the World which is no mean feat! His website for those who'd like to be inspired--->http://www.touchthetop.com/

@Leona its okay it is a complicated language.

How do you manage to read two books at the same time?
Are they of the same genre?

Okay, I do try that but I get carried away. Reading on the go is abit hard since I do like 20minutes of matatu time a day.
Maybe I try a read at home book - inspirational/ motivation & a read at work book which is a novel. Still I end up forgeting one.

Hi all,

Am looking to get children's books for between ages 4 to 12, i don't mind second hand ones as well. Am trying to build up my children's home library collection. Anyone one to point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance.

When I was in class 5, my dad bought me a book that ignited my love for books to this day. The book was called 'The Courage To Dream'. Though I no longer recall who the author was, the story has stuck in my mind all these years.
Life is like playing a violin solo in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.
