The Crack-Up With Other Pieces And Stories - F Sott Fitzgerald


Warning ! You are advised to google on Fitzgerald or else you may get lost in his word maze.



There are 5 short stories,  of autobiographical nature. I liked his superior writing style. Witty, sharp and sarcastic, it's not an easy read. I'm still struggling with the stories in short form. But I intend to read Fitzgerald's novels ASAP.

Dork Diaries - Rachel Renee Russell


This post is dedicated to my own dork @ home, my sweet daughter. She enjoyed reading this book and wanted me to do the same. So, that's it. I luurved the book, the dork and her pestering cutie pie sister. My dork is happy. 


Teens' moms, don't you ever think that Dork Diaries are silly and brash. You are wrong there. They are apostles of family-sibling bonding, friendship and moral values. This diary gives a demo on 'How to manipulate your weakness to your benefit'.

Teens, keep reading.

Welcome to Advertising. Now Get Lost - Omkar Sane



This read is part of getting to know the newbies of Guy Lit. Yes. The lay out/ design / cover of the book is appreciated. I liked the illustrations too. Very interesting. And I absolutely loved the introductions by Cyrus Broacha, Bharat Dabholkar and Gangadharan Menon. Ain't it something worth reading?

The book

 

I hopped in, got lost in many places, had a hearty laugh and popped out unscathed. Thank you-know-who, advertising is not my calling. 

 

The author 

 

I liked the Sane guy instantly. All fatty guys are funny n witty. It's a proven fact. Eg:- Cyrus Broacha. Hee hee. Sane looks quite sane with overworked humor glands. Thus the books. He got talents. See, I have bought both his books. Good luck Sane.
