Bookworm

The reading bug has bitten Sameera Reddy,who has taken a liking for biographies.

I like reading biographies. I recently finished reading the biography of Osama Bin Laden,the founder of Al-Qaeda. I was quite mesmerised by the book not because it depicted his dealings in violence and what he does,but the insight that I got into his childhood,personal life and the reasons behind his beliefs and ideologies. It was a fascinating read. My all-time favourite is Richard Bransons Losing My Virginity. The British industrialist and one of the richest persons in the world is a daredevil in real life. Always in the quest for adventure he has travelled around the world and enjoys taking risks. I love that aspect of his personality. I am sure that his biopic will inspire everyone,who reads it,to get up,take stock of one’s life and spice it up with adventure. Howard Schultzs biography is an amazing study of a company and the man behind it. The entrepreneur is best known as the chairman and CEO of Starbucks. His keen insight in real estate and insatiable appetite for coffee drinks drove him to develop the company rapidly. Coffee was never the same after Schultzs Starbucks.
