Re: Well, I have to finish Leaving India by Minal Hajratwala. RomaVenkat Send a noteboard - 02/01/2012 12:54:01 AM
Otherwise I'm dedicating myself to finishing all he books I've had sent/lent to me over the past year.

That means I shall read
The Savage Detectives by Roberto Bolano
The Independance of Miss Mary Bennett by Colleen McCullough
Escape by Manjula Padmanabhan
Generation 14 by Priya Sarukkai Chabria

I need to reread Blameless, Soulless and Changeless by Gail Carriger for review.

I need to read Barry Hughart's Bridge of Birds, which Camilla sent me ages ago, AND The Pillow Book of Sei Shonagon, also sent by Camilla.

After all this, I'm teetering between a massive Sherlock Holmes (by Conan Doyle and others) read, and sticking to home grown Indian (domestic and diasporic) products. Not sure yet.

Right now, I am skimming through Equal Rites by Terry Pratchett. I'm rereading him all in published order, but with no hurry.
