read shobha de's sisters.
absolute crap! and bullshit! i finished the book only coz i dont like to keep a book half read!!!
it started pretty ok..... then the racy scenes in between which were put in had no rhyme or reason to exist... by the end even those racy scenes were too fast!! it almost seemed like DE was too bored with her own novel!!!! it seemed she got a warning from her publisher to complete the book in so and so time and also in so and so pages! everything just looked so hurried up in the end!!!!
after reading her novel i felt even i shd write a novel!!! no research required nothing!!!!!
only one word for that book: YUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!

that WTF moment!!
ya i know till now almost all of us hv gn through a moment like this atleast once in our life where we hv turned around and said "what the f**k?"
in recent times i hv been thorugh this twice!!!! yup twice!!
i had called up my mobile service provider to ask if they provided international roaming facilites to JAPAN....conversation went on like dis
operator: hi, this is richa. how may i assist u?
me: are u providing international roaming to japan?
ope: gv me a minute please.
then hold music is going on......suddenly she picks the call again
ope: where is dis japan state located??
me: (dumbfound) japan... state.... aaah no its a country
ope: hold on
again music... this time she is back after a minute
ope: where is this japan country located? means in africa, europe, near australia????
me:(too shocked to even answer) u dont know where japan is located??? (almost going to say WTF?)
ope: i know its location....(am shocked).......but where exactly does it come on world map??
by this time i hv lost all patience and really dont know wot to say!!! so i just banged the phone down!!!
my next WTF moment came after abt 2 days from this incident. i had booked a ticket with a travel agent and had to cancel it.
ope: hello xyz travels.... how may i help u?
me: can i talk to mr. rahul?
ope: he is not on his seat.....how can i help u?
me: hmmm well actually i hd booked a return ticket to tokyo on singapore airlines... i wanted to
cancel that ticket.
ope: ok madam it will be done.... but can u tell me if it is a rail ticket, bus ticket or air ticket??
(@ dis particular moment i feel WTF)
me: (patiently answering) madam if i hv to go tokyo i will hv to go by air!!! if u know any bus service from india to tokyo pls lemme know!
i was wondering if people really can be stupid or they r too preoccupied to actually listen properly to wot we ask or speak???
well i shdnt blame others... i too hv had this WTF moment........dat is someone must hv said this to me.....
one toh i clearly rmbr......hd been to wedding(sameer's friends marriage) we went up to congratulate the couple..... i knew the guy.... i went to talk to his wife who was the bride.....all shining on her special day!!! and this was my foot in mouth or WTF moment.....
me: oh u r looking so lovely and pretty!
bride: (blushing) thanx!!!
me: b.t.w wots ur name???
huh! WTF! b4 i knew it, i had brght upon me a great disaster!!!! my hubby and his friend were to shocked to say anything!!!!!
till date i regret that moment... sameer lost a good friend!! come to think of it... i had gn for the wedding and dint even know the brides name?????
