@Kamran-Khan

its a good book, but I didn’t like the end. He was overly dramatic in the end. I just started five people you will meet in heaven by Mitch Albom.

i agree the end was a lil too ‘choro’.

I would say Da vinci code. Grisham’s last book I read was “The last Juror” again this book is not as good as his others. the whole plot is about a murderer which could easily be winded up in just three chapters

Salt and Saffron by kamila shamsie <------ this book is a Dard-e-Sar and not-quite understandable…it’s worse than a history textbook coz it’s boring AND confusing… It was my first book by a South Asian writer and I’m very dissapointed. I hope not all Pakistani/Indian writers are the same. This book was just horrible, I mean I read around 70 pages and could hardly understand the point of the story. I don’t think people who like reading about history will like it much either coz most of them will have a hard time relating to anything that’s in it. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone, if you haven’t read it then I say don’t waste your time!

Ottoman Centuries By Lord Kinross....Its a history book on Ottoman Empire

re: Tell us about a book!!!

I finsihed reading Deception Point by Dan Brown, I wont say its that bad a read as put by some out here. Its a fast paced thriller again a wee bit exagerated in the end, but all in all a 61/2 for me.

At the moment I am reading 'A Suitable Boy' by Vikram Seth, hes too descriptive an author, n that becomes a lil boring for me. Plus they are so many characters that if u give urself a break n get back to reading u wont literaly know whose who, coz the plot revolves around four families who are related to each other in some or the other way...

I just finished reading Angel Falls by Kristin Hannah....Many readers will find the story predictable but will still like it coz the way author writes...Kristin's most novels are like Shahrukh khan's movies, they're predictable but still great to watch and always have a message in the story..:)

The Ashram

by Sattar Memon

Description

[thumb=H]ashram24987_2493150.JPG[/thumb]

“A 22-year-old village woman vows to burn to death…voluntarily,” blared the radio. “Speaking from her vigil at her husband’s deathbed, she has declared that, upon his death, she will sit atop a blazing pyre and, holding his head in her lap, she will join his soul in heaven.”

What! wonders Jonathan incredulously. Suspecting homicide and seeing a stunning parallel between this imminent death and recent death of his own wife, the burnt-out American doctor, who is headed out to a Himalayan spiritual hermitage, instead, rushes out to rescue the villager. But when he arrives at the pyre, he soon realizes there is more to his journey. Unbeknownst to him, the woman’s fate is intricately tied with his own spiritual salvation!

This is an awesome novel! I’m curious to know what your thoughts are on it.
