The Answer is 49!

A busy weekend: attending a birthday party with lil D, who appears to be quite popular, since all the kids seem to talk about her at home! Or maybe she's just notorious? And meeting parents - I simply hate the fact that my parents are getting older and frailer, and we just have to sit by and watch it all happening. :-(

My shipment of books came in from FabMall, and I was all excited. Read Frederick Forsyth's Avenger, and kinda liked it. It's been a really long time since I read a best-seller thriller, and this book was a good read, mostly because you could relate to all the (world) events he described.

Then I read Eats Shoots and Leaves. It lives up to all the hype, her [Lynne Truss] style is great, and there was lots of interesting trivia. The biggest revelation for me was [sic]! I remember reading about it quite long ago, but it had since slipped my mind; so every time I came across it, I thought the author was just being nasty! :-)

I started on The Line of Beauty by Alan Hollinghurst - the latest Booker prize winner. I was looking forward to a heterosexual romantic novel (don't ask me why!), and was kind of disappointed when I realized that (I don't know how I missed this in all the reviews!) the protoganist is gay.

Caught snatches of Rules: Pyaar ka Superhit Formula on TV - Milind Soman is so definitely drool-worthy!!

Oh, and btw, the question is - which page does lil D always interrupt me at? :-)
