Twilight is a vampire/romance novel written by author Stephenie Meyer.
Twilight series consists of Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, Breaking Dawn and yet unfinished Midnight Sun.
I read in the news about this series after ‘Breaking Dawn’ was released and was a worldwide bestseller. It was a long wait in the public library and after I saw the trailer of Twilight which is releasing on 21’st November 2008; I said to myself “I have to read this book before the movie releases”.
The books pivotal point is the excellent chemistry between it’s the lead …

With this post, I welcome aboard Zainab as a part of ChanakyaSpeaks. She is a vivacious reader and has diverse reading interests. ChanakyaSpeaks is fortunate to have her on board.
A Prisoner of Birth is a mystery novel by English author Jeffery Archer.
Having read many books by Jeffery Archer when I chanced upon this brand new murder mystery, I just dived into it without any second thoughts.
It is by all means a page turner but a very predictable book where we all know that towards the end; good prevails over evil.

This book review is been done by Zainab Mantri. I thank her for giving us a glimpse into such a sensitive topic.
Being an avid & picky fiction reader I do not have a particular liking for autobiographies & I had not heard about this book or its author, so I was a bit apprehensive to begin this book. But as it was gifted to me by a friend and surfing the internet for reviews about the book; I decided to give it a try.
As I read further, I realized …

Although I had learnt that Ramanujan was a genius yet I couldn’t appreciate his discoveries or inventions but as I read the book it compelled me to finish reading my very first autobiography.
The sub title of the book entirely captures his work.
The man who knew infinity
Yes, he was the man who knew infinity, who could see where infinite series would converge. He was a sheer genius who is born once in a while (probably centuries) and engulfs the whole community in his aura and brilliance.
Ramanujan was born in Kumbakonam, …

Yup! He is the same guy who had written “5 point someone” and “One night @ the call centre”. Chetan is an alum of IIT Delhi and IIMA and worked with some investment bank for years before turning to writing.
His “5 point someone” was a rage which connected well with the youth of the nation. The YounGistan saw themselves in the characters of Hari, Ryan and Alok. Even after years of its publication, the book is selling like hot cakes.
His second book “One night @ the call centre” …
