Indian Readers discussion

Dear friends,
Do suggest a good book for September.
Here are the oft repeated rules, which are often not followed:
Please do care to adhere to the rules.

1. Only one book nomination per person. The book goes to poll if it is seconded by another person, or if the moderators decide so.

2. NO PROMOTIONS OF ANY KIND.
Authors, their friends and publishers, please note that you cant recommend your own books, however good you feel those are.

3. Please avoid recommending previous winners;
PLEASE GO THROUGH THIS LIST BEFORE RECOMMENDING:
https://www.goodreads.com/group/books...

If anyone by chance, recommends a book which is already read by the group or otherwise is considered unsuitable, it automatically stands cancelled and will not enter the polls.

Eagerly awaiting the nominations :)

Behind Closed Doors by B A Paris. The book was a nominee in the mystery and thriller and debut author sections of the Goodreads awards in 2016.

It by Stephen King

Don't worry, we are not confined to any particular category or genre! :)

Dreams Implant

I nominate Interpreter of Maladies

A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara

I nominate Flowers for Algernon

'only time will tell' by Jeffrey Archer

I second Behind Closed Doors by B.A. Paris

Rebirth of Love in 2060

You can't nominate your own book, Vignesh.

A long way home by Saroo Brierley

Two digit less love, a true modern contemporary fictional love story with a fine blend of twist like that of an English literature book! Just read the first two pages of the book and trust me, you will not stop until the last page.

Pritam..this is not a promotion thread. Hope you have read and understood the rules.

I would highly recommend 'Age of swords' by 'Michael J Sullivan' . It's a second book in 'The legend of first empire' series. The first book 'Age of myth' was also a great read.

I recommend "GONE WITH THE WIND" by "Margaret Mitchell".

A Tale of Two Cities

I recommend Cider With Rosie by Laurie Lee
