I just finished The Apprentice by Tess G.
A thriller, page turner, and made me sleepless,scared of the dark and scared off my own shadow for a while.
A compelling read. I recommend.

Savoured a few from " 201 Short Stories" by Anton Chekov. Ward No.6 was a classic.

Really? IMHO I felt that he was more focused on creating a bigger phenom than Kite Runner that he went overboard...I still feel Kite Runner is his best work
I haven't read Kite runner, but I liked thousand splendid suns.....

Was very disappointed with Neil Bissoondath's latest work "The Soul of All Great Designs"...he was the last author whom I expected to fall back on such basic stereotypes of an Immigrant Indian.
# The Worlds Within Her
# The Unyielding Clamour of the Night
# A Casual Brutality
# The Innocence of Age
were all engrossing and fully rounded works...
Oh, I find most of the Booker Prize winning/nominated books to be boring. Sea of Poppies- have a copy and slept after the first few pages. Still not read.

I am reading Sidney Sheldon's Mistress of the Game.
Not bad.. but still nothing like the original author
Never argue with a fool or he will drag you down to his level and beat you at it through sheer experience!
