A book by Amulya Malladi
A friend loaned me the book and I couldn't keep it down. It's one of those book that you just have to complete within a day.

Panchaali's Mahabarat, The Palace of Illusions by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni, published in 2008, went on to become an international best seller. It is the story of Mahabharata from Draupadi's perspective - or you could say it's Draupadi's stroy from birth and before to death and after, told by her!

Coming from India, we all know all about bonding over tea. Of course, the word ‘tea’ and ‘together’ go hand in hand, even though not in that order. So it’s the title that intrigued me while shopping at Costco. My love for ‘chai’ time compelled me into buying the book for my in-flight entertainment during the upcoming India trip. I’m glad I picked it.
'Girls Of Riyadh', by Rajaah Alsanea, is a fictional story of four friends from Riyadh in the popular format of the 'Sex In The City' story line, except that it is set in a land that is far from providing the open freedom that the women in Manhattan enjoy and perhaps take for granted- and that is what makes the novel intriguing and fascinating at the same time.

Did you know that Chandigarh has the distinct status of being India’s first planned city and also it’s cleanest? That post-partition Nehru had commissioned its development to reflect new India?
Did you know that Shimla was built by the British Raj as its official summer capital- a Little England to ‘escape’ India?
