Five Six, Pick up the Tricks

Moab is my Washpot by Stephen Fry
Paperweight by Stephen Fry
Saturday by Ian McEwan
Arthur and George by Julian Barnes
The Sea, The Sea by Iris Murdoch
In a Free State by V S Naipaul

Saturday is vintage McEwan. Taut, Exact Writing. Supreme Delight at first read .Full pleasures to be shared after I finish the book.

We already love Fry’s writing. Actually we just love the man himself. We got so excited with the two books we saw first that we forgot to pick up The Ode Less Travelled which shall be purchased the moment our next set of coupons arrive.

And so, quiet flows the Dee. Not SRK, you crumbs,…

We are particularly delighted to have acquired Iris Murdoch’s Booker winner, especially since we have been in its pursuit for over a year now. It took some indecision before picking In a Free State ahead of A Bend in the River.

Back to reading now.

dude, we need some REAL original thoughts on this blog for it to be worthwhile to followup.

you can't keep listing books you've bought or quizzes you've won or race timings; its not exactly compelling content

give us some spice, this is aam janta you're talking to

my mom made some fantastic aam ka aachar, but maybe that is not what you wanted ;)

my response to you is from C&H. Calvin and mom are once in a store, when Calcin asks for pants. When his mom asks why he needs a pair, Hobbes prompts him to say, "Its for the chicks!"

So there you go... Besides you don't read it much anyways... For spice, ask Dexy ;)
