Here is a simple, light, easy read which neither taxes nor assaults the reader's intelligence. The book is all about this uber-successful associate-on-the-verge-of-making-partner at the best law firm in London and her life or the lack thereof, and what happens, when suddenly circumstances force her to quit her job and take up housekeeping!!!!! Apart from the the fact that the book is relatively well written and is able to hold reader-attention for the most part, why this book felt so nice to read is that it describes almost perfectly, the life in a law firm. :-)
The ending has been dragged a fair bit longer than was strictly necessary and is a predictable cliche. But the book does not claim to be a literary gem. It aims only at making you smile and any book which leaves you with a smile as you turn over the last page should be worth a read. What say?
This is the other book I have been reading recently. This, I was put up to by one of my friends who got infected with the 'twilight' buzz just before the much delayed release of the movie in India. I did not expect to enjoy this book. here was a book aimed at the early teenagers and knowing how far behind I have left my teens, let alone 'early teens', I fully expected to find the book and the movie childish. Not so! I enjoyed the book thoroughly. Looking forward to reading the rest of the series. Turns out vampires and werewolves can be almost as interesting as wizards! Go figure! :-)
