It is totally based on your interest. If you are really interested, I would like you to start from "Forty Rules of Love by Elif Shafak." It is is wonderful read about mysticism. It would be a good start for you. I can recommend you book but it depends upon your choice that what kind of books you want to read.

Ahan, forty rules of love on mysticism? Okay, I shall keep that in mind. Thank you for the recommendation. Actually, I want to develop interest in varied fields/spheres so I won't limit myself.
I have recently read on philosophy, Sophie's world and now I have started with Karen Armstrong's memoir, "A spiral staircase". Have you read that book?

Yes Its a wonderful read. You will love it, I bet. And after reading that you would like to read all the books by that writer.
I have read Sophie's World. It is also another excellent read. I appreciate your choice. I havent read Karen Armstrong's book yet. I am reading "Honor" by Elif Shafak now a days.
Anyhow complete that one and we may share others reads again.

I read Elif Shafak's "Forty rules of love " and didn't find it very intriguing. As compared to her other books she couldn't retain the reader's interest in this book. But shophie's word is good choice.

Either you have not read it properly or you are a boring person. I have read Sophie's World. Comparatively Forty Rules of Love has no match. Well, It depends upon your interest.

One must keep reading books, keeping in view one's interest.

I, too, didnt get interest in Forty Rules of Love

Yes, it depends upon one's interest. I found Sophie's world ok. I mean I really liked the beginning. The middle was also good but I didn't really like the end. I didn't like the author's idea of destroying the party and everything like that. Infact, I was expecting much more than that.
