Was busy preparing for the Indian Foreign Service, so couldn't read many novels the last two years [but I did read a lot of textbooks, newspapers and magazines as part of my prep ]. But now that I've finally gotten selected, I've been reading a lot of fantasy and science fiction over the last two months. Unfortunately, it is so difficult to get books on tennis in India. And I don't have a debit/ credit card, so can't buy it online. I guess I'll have to wait till I go to the US or UK as a diplomat sometime in the next decade.

Ahhhh, science-fiction, my favorite.I used to be a voracious reader but read mostly magazines and catalogs now.Just finished a historical novel by a local author about some local history during the late 1700's.http://www.amazon.com/The-Old-American-A-Novel/dp/0786231823So little time now, that reading has fallen by the wayside.Am sure there will be plenty of time for that when I am older like Dallas.

I consider myself "better"...not "older"...
I recently read Andre Agassi's book and I must say that I enjoyed every page of it!It is so much better than The Quest for Perfection and Rafa.
