Reviews

[Nandhini Ilango]

Not really my type, but I read it because I like Sujatha's writing. Its very difficult to like the male/female lead or even any of the characters in the story and maybe that is the point of the book. I did not like the blanket generalisation of NRI ppl and there is no justification really as to why the author did that.
