Stories from my own travels were uniquely my own, and I felt most adept at them.
To make the alphabetical challenge even more interesting, I decided to use alliterative titles for each. That's how "Tales From My Travel Treasury: An Alliterative Anthology" came about.(less)

I’d seen portions of the art work from this book at an art exhibition a couple of years ago and had admired the story and creativity behind its presentation then. But reading it in this small format was quite disappointing. The story in verse recount ...more

The Hollow by Agatha Christie

This was such a fun read! It was different from other Poirot’s by Christie because it focused on extramarital affairs and how complicated human relationships can be. I’ve never read Christie’s “Mary Westmacott” novels but I imagine they would be as r ...more

Family Lexicon by Natalia Ginzburg

The autobiography is a real and raw look at the writer’s family dynamics. She focuses on her parents and siblings and shows them quite honestly with all their many foibles. But she also clearly loves them. She writes that the book is an attempt at sa ...more

I’ve owned this book for a while but its heavy subject matter had deterred me from reading it, till I picked it up to fit an unusual reading prompt. I’m glad I did because despite its heavy subject matter, the book kept me hooked. Set in 19th century ...more

Everyone knows about Capt. Vikram Batra, the war hero from the 1999 Kargil war. But this book brings to life Vikram Batra, the person, as seen from his identical twin’s perspective. It’s an incredible story - twins, war, a love story, a charming hero ...more

I picked this book because I thought it would fit the monthly prompt of a reading challenge I’m doing. It didn’t, but I ended up loving it. An easy breezy read that consists of diary entries - both visual and textual- of the writer’s life through the ...more

Pilgrimage by Ira Singh

This novelette is a masterfully written account of three separate incidents in the protagonist’s life. While disconnected, they shed light on the character’s personality in very nuanced and interesting ways. There is shock value to the story arcs but ...more

This is a murder mystery that moves from small town Kanpur to big time Bollywood. It has a skewed plot, bumbling detectives and a mystery that offers scanty explanations, if any. But what really works is the humorous take on small town life. There we ...more

Actually 2.5/5.

The premise is certainly interesting. It examines the life of the same boy-growing-into-man child of a highly abusive marriage over the course of the first 35 years of his life. But there are three lifetimes explored separately - each
