Second in the Vish Puri series. Enjoyed this one as well as it is really rooted in India and its social norms. All the side characters (especially my favourite Mummy-ji) help flesh out Vish Puri's daily life
My first #roll100 for the year.

I get hungry reading Vish Puri's books. Not a bad thing but when it's the main attraction because the plot that started out as a really good idea devolves into a mumbo-jumbo of a mess, the food is what saves it and keeps me reading.

Oh, Litsy readers, you may get this more than anyone. I am meeting up with a dear friend I have had since the early 90s and we are going to try to do some of the readathon together. And I am so nervous! What if we don't read well together. What if it's distracting? But what if it's like super powers activating? Do you read with people? Do you set ground rules? How do you even approach it?

BookishMarginalia @jaimitapr @gibblr and I had a #readathon with a friend (of the Android-phone Litsyless persuasion) and it was great! A weekend of reading, drinking, eating, and bookish fun. May yours be as productive and restorative! 8y
