Once was Bombay

More book updates:

I finished Amitav Ghosh's The Hungary Tide and am now reading Pinky Virani's Once was Bombay. Interesting so far, plus I like the short story format, its just so much easier to read and find a break to pause for a bit.

I did enjoy reading The Hungary Tide. It was a really well written book that gets you involved in the events of the book as well as the characters. And it was interesting to hear yesterday, that the book is being made into a movie...now that would be nice, though it'll be really hard to capture one of the central characters, Fokir. Piya and Kanai babu will be easier to play I feel. Looking forward to seeing the movie.
