Samira’s comments from the Straight Lines group.

sounds pretty realistic. it'll take me about a month starting monday to finish emma. it's a pretty tough read at times (i've read a part of it before).

i have to read "night" by elie wiesel next- i promised my little brother i'd read it with him at the beginning of the month. it's a short book so i'll be done within a week or 10 days. have you already read it? if not, you could join us (i'll add my brother to our club).

if you'd rather start on emma, you could keep me updated as to your pace so that i can catch up with you...?

haha, i just did the same. how about mid-jan?

maybe we can finish white tiger by mid jan?

let's read emma next?

great! how about starting tomorrow?

...we'd begin with The White Tiger. My husband's been trying to get me to read it :)

So, here is a proposed list of books authored by Indians:

1. The White Tiger by Aravind Adiga
2. The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri
3. Fine Balance by Rohinton Mistry

Proposed list of classics:

1. Emma by Jane Austen
2. The Metamorphosis by Kafka
3. Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte

Feel free to add and/or propose an order.
