“Tell us more about yourself?”
This question can send shivers down my spine! Answer it correctly and you, the reader, will be impressed by my flow of words. Get it wrong, and you might never want to come back to my site.
In the interest of self-preservation, I will try to keep my answer simple.

I am an Indian expatriate who has made Dubai her home for almost eighteen years now. Books are my passion, and I am glad to be bringing simple stories to the readers, which will gladden their hearts.

I picked this book up at a recent sale at Magrudy's. The blurb sounded interesting, with a film tie-in cover, and later I realised the book was even long-listed for a few awards. I was not at all disappointed with my impulsive purchase. A gentle book, ...more

This one was a different read from all the gore and twisters that current thrillers have. The gentle pace, the subtle humour and the quirky characters made for an interesting mix. The reveal when it comes is not too startling, but quite satisfying.
