New York: Life in the big city by Will Eisner

It is a beautifully crafted graphic novel.It's about life in a city and seen through a comic person's eye. So, parts of it are intimate, parts of it are large and parts of it are depictions of what does it feel like when you are taking a train journey. Its fabulous to see how people interact, and if I cannot understand human interaction it is never going to work for me. 

The First Rule by Robert Crais 

It is a simple book. Somebody gets killed and somebody is taking a revenge. It is an easy book that you can stare at, in the middle of edits or when you are traveling.
