Books I read in February

Books I read in February .......

1. See Jane Die by Erica Splinder

--- Kind of Murder Mystery .. nice read. i likes it.  nice twist in the tail of the tale. Nice interplay of relationships and twists and turns in the story.

2. "Love, Rosie" aka "Where Rainbows End" by Cecelia Ahern

--- An absolute emotional roller coaster. For me it was reading with tears in my eyes for the first time in life. i even blogged about it while I was reading it  

3. Murder in the Mews by Agatha Christie (Hercule Poirot Series)

--- collection of 4 Hercules Poirot stories ... Murder in the Mews, The Incredible Theft, Dead Man's Mirror, Triangle at Rhodes ... Frankly I am not sure if I am going to pick up another one from this series. Did not really like it.

--- I would rather not write anything about it except maybe 'I did not like them much' ... My fav are Sherlock Holmes, 3 Investigators and Feluda

4. Ice Station by Mathew Reilley

--- Like the other Mathew Reilley i read last month, this was again action packed. I guess I will end up reading all of his work. I have read most of Ludlum work and now its Reilley !! I Likes !!

 ...................................... its absolutely lovely to be back into the reading groove ................................

Mumbai Local - First Class v/s Second Class

    It is an old joke that the difference in the first class and second class of the Mumbai local trains is that people in first class use deodorants and hence you are exempted from the smelly underarms while travelling. The mute point being; both class of travel experience a passenger overload during the peak hours and you are almost equally squeezed and pushed around in both. Of course, the seats in First Class are cushioned (unlike the hard seats of second class) but then that would make a difference only if you get to sit (which would be a likely probability only if you get into the train from the station it originates). My father holds a first class pass from Churchgate to Andheri (since past 7 years, ever since we moved to Andheri). He often travels by Second class in the evening. Strange, isn't it? This is why he does it … In the First class, there is an unwritten rule that on the seat, only the designated number of people (which is 3) will sit. No sq...

Tongue Twister - V for Vendetta

Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is it vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition.

Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V." - V for Vendetta
