Kataklicik read and liked Julie's review of Leave It to Me:

"A story of a young East Indian-American woman who was adopted from India by an Italian family in New Jersey. After college she travels to San Francisco to seek the identity of her mother. Premise really grabbed me, but it turned out to be the most po...more "

Terrible. Don't even attempt lah. I had such high hopes for this one, what with it being a New York Times notable book; having rave reviews from the Boston Globe, the San Francisco Chronicle, People, New York Daily; it being inducted into the Ballantine Readers' Circle, it having a group reading guide.

Urgh, but no. Ms Mukerjee's pingpong-ing plot, here there everywhere. Erratic would sum it up. Erratic. Erratic. Erratic. If it weren't for my severe respect for the published tome, the pages of this one would be destined to be bin-liners. ]]> <![CDATA[Kataklicik added 'When the Emperor Was Divine']]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/77542428 to: When the Emperor Was Divine (Paperback) by Julie Otsuka
I should be more moved by this book. After all, it's about being Japanese in the US during WWII, about being hauled off to internment camps, about being segregated. But ehh, no. Too unfeeling. I didn't feel hooked into the injustice. ]]> <![CDATA[new comment from Kataklicik]]> http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/241794-popular-warehouse-sale Kataklicik made a comment in the Goodreads Malaysia group:

Semalam I went to Summit USJ and ter-chanced on buntings:

what? Popular Warehouse Sale
where? 4th Floor Summit USJ
when? Starts 20/11 (what date it ends I can't for the life of me remember)
why? apparently up to 80% discount

Huaaaaa! More sales when I'm on a strict book-buying diet! ]]> <![CDATA[Kataklicik added 'A River Sutra']]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/77271371 to: A River Sutra (Paperback) by Gita Mehta
