Want to develop reading as a hobby, but don't have a clue where to start. Well no worries I will suggest you some good reading stuff, if you can get through them, Congratulations ! you are a reader and if not then Sorry Dear ! but you will have to try your luck with some other hobby.
First of all, you don't read just for reading, you read to learn, to understand so please don't go start reading Chetan Bhagat, Ravinder Singh, Durjoy Dutta and all that. Those are not literature, those are totally time pass, badly bollywood inspired stories which you read when you absolutely don't have anything to do and don't want to use your mind. A Big NO to all that stuff if you want to develop reading as your hobby. Here are some really nice reads
A hilarious novel written by Anurag Mathur, about an Indian exchange student Gopal at an American University. This novel successfully depicts the clash of two completely different cultures. It is funny cover to cover and keeps you entertained till the end.
Warrior of the light written by Paulo Coelho, is a book full of proverb, words of encouragement and wisdom, filled with so much realization on life. The book is beautifully written and full of symbolism.
Well I am little biased, when it comes to Harry Potter Series. I just love this series and I think every one should read it once. A Fiction master piece written by J. K. Rowlling is a story of a boy/wizard named Harry Potter. Right from the first page you just found yourself attached with the magical world. If you think it is for children then you are completely wrong. The series grows with each book. If you have watched the movies don't fool yourself by thinking that you know everything, all the books have so many secrets winding with each other, which is impossible to completely portray in a two hour movie.
The novel written by Dan Brown is a thriller. It takes an open minded person to read it and to remember it is just fiction. but it brings up a lot of important questions about the Christian church, and the loss of paganism and the respect of the Goddess or the Woman. Everyone should read it once.
The Secret written by Rhonda Byrne contains wisdom from modern-day teachers -- men and women who have used it to achieve health, wealth, and happiness. By applying the knowledge of The Secret, they bring to light compelling stories of eradicating disease, acquiring massive wealth, overcoming obstacles, and achieving what many would regard as impossible.
A novel written by Cecelia Ahern about holding on, letting go, and learning to love again. This novel follows the engaging, witty, and occasionally sappy reawakening of Holly, a young Irish widow who must put her life back together after she loses her husband Gerry to a brain tumor, and how her husband found a way of helping her through her suffering even after dying. Nice story and beautifully written.
A classic, written by Harper Lee. A wonderful piece of literature, great characters, plot and prose. There is sadness and happiness, racism and equality, immaturity and maturity, injustice and redemption. Atticus is a man we could all love and look up to a grounded just and fair man he sees beyond race and finds the goodness in people. A lot of the story is told through a young girl and is enjoyable to see things from a young perspective
A Love story written by Nicholas Sparks. It is a timeless piece on the concept of soul mate and life long commitment. Nice read for those who love to read romantic stories.
A delightfully dishy novel written by Lauren Weisberger about the all-time most impossible boss in the history of impossible bosses. It is a story of a girl who had the misfortune of getting the most bossy boss. Her super demanding boss leaves her on the verge of loosing her best friend and boy friend. The impossible demands of The Boss makes you laugh a lot. A nice, funny and light read.

The Da Vinci Code

Shiva Triology
This series is written by Amish Tripathi. I am not a fan of young Indian authors but this guy has rocked it. He has used his imagination and provided us with a very nice read. But if you want to read this book you will have to keep your mythological knowledge behind for a while so that story of this novel's main protagonist - Shiva, can sink in. Amish has taken all his characters from Indian mythological stories and created a completely different world with them. So do read this one.
