There are two kinds of books for bus travellers. Both yielding the same effect of missing your alighting stop.
Ones of kind that put you to a sound sleep, no matter what happens, with just a page's read!!For some aspects in life, perseverence simply does not pay, hope I sound more as being realistic rather than pessimistic.
Others of the kind that keep you so engrossed in it that you end up missing your alighting point, well, I just finished reading a book of the second kind."Five point Someone", one that had been in my wishlist for ages,finally got read..What a wonderful and lively writing it is! An amazing ride it was from the maiden page to the last full stop encountered. Kudos! Mr.Chetan Bhagat.

i have read that one its nice... if u liked it try another one out - recently i read one more set up in IIT-d and written by an IITian nice one, explores slightly different things but really nice read that is too... its Above Average by amitabh bagchi, do try it out if u find time
5.someone! Great book indeed. The lead character's name is Hari and he is a mechanical engineer. But sadly, the similarities between him and me ends there :( My HOD never had a beautiful daughter..Sigh!
@pushpa,
The book was so enticing that I read it at the bus-stop too!!
Totally agreed!!
