Now that my 3 month long 'extended' vacation before house surgeoncy all set to vanish to thin air within a couple of days, here comes one more post,rather short reviews of 3 books and a movie which i just managed to finish.
Books:
1.Almost Single:
A desi chick lit by Advaita kala,this one tells the story of three single,fun loving women Misha,Aisha and Anushka and their adventures with the opposite sex.Quite hilarious and fast paced, recommended if you love reading decent chick lit' books.
rating: 6.75/10
2.You are here:
rating: 4/10
3.The Strike:
This one is Toronto based 'Anand Mahadevan's' debut which is the story of twelve year old Hari who tries to make sense of his tumultous and complex world in the 1980's India.A note worthy coming-of-age tale laced with humour ,strike is at the best a decent debut.
rating: 5/10
Movie:
1.Dil Bole Hadippa:
Yash Raj's Chak de india meets 'jab we met' kind of story set(again) in the punjabi back drop din't work for me.The only good thing about the movie being the title track set to tune by Pritam.
rating:3/10

my reading habits are so weird that my tastes for books change from time to time...there was a point f tym when i loved reading chick lit..i have even read kavya viswanathan's 'how opal mehta got kissed......gt a lyf....'(the exact name ,i dont remember rite now,the book was removed from circulation after that plagiarism controversy broke out.. ).after sometym i lost interst in that genre,moved on to non-fiction(ramachandraguha et al),then i developed a liking to historical fiction....t goes on like that....
yup,i completed my M.B.B.S from a medical college in kerala a year back ,rite now preparing for pg entrance.....
