Godfather page 26...

I like reading. When i say that dont mistake me as a professional reader. No iam not. I am just an amateaur and probably the longest amateaur i know. But when i decide upon a book i finish it off at any cost. It all started back in 4rth year of my bachelors with 'Godfather'. The book was there in my library all the time but i never even dared to have a look at it as i was said it was a classic. Being a classic was a disqualification for me at that time. Back then PAMMAN was my favourite author . Whenever i get a Pamman's book from my friend shankar i would ask him "page number?" . I think there is no need to say further. I had almost read all Pamman books..err ... sorry pages by 4rth year. That was when we turned our attention to english "pages". And Godfather page 26 was my harisree . But i couldnt stop just by reading that page and thats how i readthrough a complete book for first time in my life. And from that point i have come a long way to become what iam now...an amateaur!

And coincidently iam not the first one to start Godfather from page 26'. Here is a company.
