    a nice book which lays emphasis on the importance of punctuation in writing/speaking. in this twitter type communication going on everywhere, where u have limited space to write, we tend to ignore the punctuation.. seems in some time that our communication will be defunct.. and we will attribute the reasons to the mass social networking.........last but not the least, book loses its context when we talk about communication going on on internet... print media is still very much following the rules..

    as i was going thru the book, i got to know that i follow many of them.. so these are innate qualities in me.. still lot to learn, especially when u go thru the book, u realize that oh!! that can also be said as a trick.. though i think it must have taken Leil Lowndes a long time to compile the book as the examples she has given are from her life (or may be from other's lives).. so many experiences, we tend to forget and someone else is writing a book on that.. it is a good read though...

    this is awesome..Adiga has done justice in portraying the various facets of India, be it rural, metropolitan or a small town..it seems as if you are looking at a motion picture..

  • Life of Pi
    • Rated 5 stars

    fighting in the middle of the ocean with all odds and emerging as winner is this novel talks about. living on one boat with tiger and still not being eaten can only be accomplished by a human being.. no other creature can achieve this feat.. an excellent work which keeps you gripped from the first page to the last.. you just keep wondering what's gonna come in next page...

  • Wings of Fire
    • Rated 0 stars

    this book in one of the best books I ever read. it shows how a man of dreams and 'wings of fire' can shape the entire nation. power of dreams and putting the effort to bringing them to reality is what it has shown. abdul kalam has been inspiring for many indians and in his pursuit, he has left no stone unturned, be it dreaming of india as superpower or bringing his thoughts into action.
