My Books Wish List (October, 2017)



Dear friends

I love reading so one day I decided to get the list of famous books of my interest and then I search them on search engines like Google, Million Short (https://millionshort.com/) to get them gratis. For example, if I wanted self  help books, I query 'self help books' on Google and it presents you with a list of its own. While opening Google, instead of typing 'google.com' (this redirects you to local site like 'google.co.in', 'google.co.uk', etc), type 'google.com/ncr', here 'ncr' means 'no country redirect' and you land on to the global 'google.com' page.

Given below is the list from 'google.co.in':



Given below is the list from 'google.com/ncr':


Next you look up for book you want by forming queries like 'the secret pdf', 'power of now pdf', 'think and grow rich pdf', and so forth. If this does not work, try other post-fixes after the book name like ''psycho cybernetics epub', 'psycho cybernetics ebook download' to get links to any site like 'archive.org' having the book for download in format other than PDF.

Here is a list of books that I wish to read but could not find them to download gratis. If you have any of these books, please send it at: ashishjainblogger@gmail.com
