Two years ago to this very date, I started this blog and titled it 'My Reading Journal'. A lot has happened in these two years, half of which I discussed in my 2008 entry "Return of the Reader". On reflection the title "Return of the Reader' wasn't an accurate choice of words. You return when you leave, I never left books or rather they never leave me.

I will always cry tears of joy on your triumph and success and I always moan your tragedies and misfortunes...I will always always love you.

Long live Motherland, Pakistan Zinda Bad.

One disclaimer to make, if I don't like a book I won't...
