Hello Everyone, I'm Byron, an Assistant Professor here in Taft. Glad to know that there are plenty of bookworms like me in this forum and Booksale rats (most likely) as well ... I can't remember my first book (probably a Hardy Boys series) but the last one was Manuscript Found in Accra (not worth buying). Currently, my favorite author is Arturo Pérez-Reverte (my last one was Captain Alatriste)... Kindly suggest one each for both fiction and non-fiction... Thanks...
My Top Ten Fictions so far:
1. The Girl with Dragon Tattoo (really really good)
2. The Alchemist (a familiar tale to spiritual seekers)
3. The Pelican Brief
4. Disclosure
5. The Fencing Master
6. The Day of the Jackal
7. Lord of the Rings Series
8. The Bourne Identify (series is good as well)
9. Bloodline
10. Clear and Present Danger
My Top Ten Non-Fictions so far:
1. Adventure of Faith (RSSB book)
