Morever, two women as the main characters (and one man) is a lot of "masala" to make interesting reading. @Mr Banerjee, I hope the book review encourages you to take it off your shelf :-) The book is a quick read but may leave you with much food for thot.

Otherwise it just gathers dust in the shelf. I got Portobello as a birthday gift but one finds that borrowing/stealing ( :wink: ) a book gives the impetus to read without dilly-dallying.

I just ordered online "Millennium Mums & the Art of Chakki Peesing" by Sonali Mehta. Its got some good reviews as a laugh-riot debut novel. I also have Brida by Coelho, and My Feudal Lord, a fictional autobiography by Tehmina Durrani, Pakistani English authoress.If interested in the Durrani novel, you can catch some snippets at: http://www.jazbah.org/bookmfl.php @Snigs: will surely check out the books u mentioned.

I bought this when it hit the stands. After reading your blog, I am encouraged to read this book . May be once I finish Holy Cow I can start this. BTW, try reading Marley and Me its a funny and touching story of a Dog called Marley and his owner John. If you are interested in sercasm, Moore's "Where's my country dude is also very funny." I saw Dilbert strip on your blog so I thought it might be of interest to you. This book also gathering dust in my book shelf. I bought this when it hit the stands.

Its very very very encouraging. I will check out the broken link. The Muse was the product of a very fresh mind and a very heavy heart and hence the story has a lot of energy, which draws readers. Personally, it is also my fav story, and in some way I relate to the protoganist in the Muse and the Full Circle. I have not been able to recreate the magic of the Muse in my later writings, but then thats why most creative people have atleast "one masterpiece" in their kittie ;-) @Ritu: I am so glad that you spent so much time on my blog.

After I read The Zahir, I was slightly disappointed with Coelho, but I guess, he is back with a bang. I already have Brida lined up on my bookshelf as my next read :-) Do send me ur comments if you read Brida. @Aarti - I have subscribed to the Warrior of the Light newsletter and I came to know abt the experimental witch project.
