So here are my thoughts on the two books I read. If you don't want to read my blabbering ons about the books, then in … Continue reading Two unforgettable fictional heroines – Circe and Isabel Dalhousie – Book Thoughts
Playing with the rains at Bhandardara
We took an extra day off on Friday, and planned a weekend getaway to Bhandardara, which is a hill station in the Sahyadri mountain ranges, around 200 kms from Pune. It was a much awaited trip, since we hadn't been there before and this would've been our usual monsoon trip, just that a first with … Continue reading Playing with the rains at Bhandardara

The Runaways & The Kiss Quotient – Book Thoughts
I really need a good book to get me out of the two unsatisfying reads that I read last.

If I say I didn't like a particular book, I … Continue reading The Runaways & The Kiss Quotient – Book Thoughts
