Hi Readers,
Mr. X is a fan of novel, stories and
other books. So we usually visit book stores and therefore this story
is about the books. Well I always feel boring when I had to
visit a book store and I feel tired when I even pick up a book. This
is what I think most of us would claim. Though I have a friend who
claims that when he is not able to sleep he opens a book and as soon
as he starts reading he falls asleep. I am not sure how much truthful
he is. So this time when I visited the book store, I felt like stealing ideas from
novel to write my own book.
So I decided to steal some ideas from Philosophical section and therefore I picked up some books. Well its
quite tough to understand them. This section was completely alien for
me. So, I just left it. Better luck next time for philosophy. Then I
moved to Romantic section, what surprised me the most was that all books were on love
story or either on break up story that too with a love agenda. All
novels in this section are nearly same, cannot do much about that. So I
picked up a single book to just check it out but this is what happened
“Oh that is a nice story, but wait its a movie story, what was the
title again, crap its 'PS I Love You'”. Here is what my stats say,
30-40% books had a movie story. These stats are prepared by checking
only first 10 books at random order.
No animal love books in romantic
section. So after looking here and there I got books on animals and
that too National Geographic books. Well I can watch TV for that.
Then came mythological section, this section is holy and stealing
from gods is not a great idea so I left it. Moving ahead I went to
this fiction and non-fiction section, all books were mixed in such a
way that even no one can guess whether its fictional or non
fictional. Suddenly I felt that the place got really crowded in this
section, well 60% of total people in book store are found in this
section.
You know what I think the best
section in the whole book store is? Its the magazine section, but
even here the problem is that there were no playboy magazines, I
planned to steal some different idea here. So I declared it a rough
day, stealing ideas is too hard. I did a go through of this
complete book store within half an hour and Mr. X was still
searching for the book and it felt like he is searching soul-mate for
two hours.
I hope you liked my unsuccessful stealing of ideas and I hope to receive your comments.
Thanks
Nakul
