"Everybody has sympathy for the martyr; no one was willing to stand by the warrior."

Wasn't sure what to expect from this debut author, but was very impressed by Confessionally Yours. Jhoomur Bose takes you inside the world of the 'modern' Indian woman struggling to meet the expectations of society and those around her. There's something here for everyone ... love, humour, politics, controversy, sex, sexism and more than a few twists and turns to keep you guessing.
Highly recommended.
Looking forward to the next one Ms Bose!!
Highly recommended.
Looking forward to the next one Ms Bose!!
Engages you with a lot of humour and wit. A typical chick-lit with a serious end. Enjoyed it!
