Book Review – The Dressmaker’s Gift
Finished reading The Dressmaker’s Gift by Fiona Valpy a couple of days back. It’s historical fiction and a two timeline story. Worth a read.
This blog is our space to write about our thoughts, views and notes about our travels. Osho owned 90 Rolls Royces while being a Sanyasi ….. The so-felt contradiction is very fascinating and hence the name !

This is another two timeline book by Rhys Bowen. Interesting but not quite like The Venice Sketchbook. My rating is 3/5, a one time read only.
Krishnan and I love reading books ! Books have helped shape us into who we are and widened our perspectives. Start Reading Today.
A beautiful story with Venice and WWII as the backdrop. A sad ending of one love story with the promise of the next one being a happy ending.
A beautiful story set in the city of Shanghai during WWII. Do read about Aiyi (an heiress) and Ernest (a refugee) and their epic love.
In Who Painted my Lust Red, Sree Iyer picks up the second heady cocktail of Bollywood, Cricket and Politics. IPL and its side effects are nauseating …. yet the money spinner keeps going on.
Do read Educated, the brilliant memoir written by Tara Westover. You learn a lot about yourself, not just about Tara.
I strongly recommend reading this beautiful book titled The Greatest Love Story Ever Told. Rating it 5/5. It’s truly worth a read.
Hard News is a purely fictional tale by Mark Sullivan about the happenings in a Newspaper office in California. My rating is 3/5.
This book compiles the short biographies of 15 bravehearts of Bharat, 8 men and 7 women. Several of them are unknown…. A must read book.
