I love a simple narrative no matter how complicated the plot :) Looking forward to discussing books with... more »

  • The Girl Who Played with Fire
    • Rated 3 stars

    There was something missing in this book as compared to the first one. Maybe the climax, not sure. Salander is shown to be larger than life..otherwise it definitely keeps u hooked

  • Mistress of the Game
    • Rated 3 stars

    I liked it. Anyone who likes Master of the Game will surely want to know what happened to the cursed Blackwell family. Ms Bagshawe has tried to carry on Sheldon's writing style and she succeeds in a lot of areas. The one thing that could have improved this book would have been a more explosive end. Still, no complains, it was great fun

  • Paths of Glory
    • Rated 4 stars

    I really liked the book. George Mallory's fascination for climbing is fascinating. The mystery about the first man to climb Mt Everest continues!

  • Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason
    • Rated 3 stars

    In the sequel to Bridget Jones, she is finally in a relationship with her dream man and almost ruins it by being herself! While it is funny in parts, some of the earlier chapters dragged a little. From then on, it is a funny read!

  • The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
    • Rated 5 stars

    A really good read. It started a little slow but became gripping soon after. Liked it a lot and cant wait to read the sequels! was sad that the author passed away.

  • Exclusive: Reporters in Love...and War: A Novel
    • Rated 2 stars

    I picked this book up with a lot of enthusiasm but feel it fails to deliver.Barbara Fischkin has a nice style of writing but the plot gets too muddled with the present and the past.The characters are too uni-dimensional. The humour is cool but nothing else worth talking about

  • Mr. Monk and The Two Assistants
    • Rated 4 stars

    it was nice...i liked the twist. Was happy Sharona came into the picture. Ever since she left, there were so many unanswered questions. I always wondered if Natalie was a good enough replacement for Sharona and i'm convinced after this book, she is perfect.
