Pretty easy read, slightly entertaining, borderline chick-lit. ]]>
Very well done book focusing on the political situation in Bosnia post the UN's intervention. Revolves around a man lured there by his best friend in pursuit of hitting in rich, but instead ends up pursuing a woman already there (love, money, exchange rate, this is pretty obvious from the title). There are also war criminals, who are always fun. ]]>

Really more like 3.5 stars.
In the recent rush of Indian literature, White Tiger focuses on the relatively ignored area (or at least ignored by me) of the the poor attempting to rise up economically in India itself. At times, it contains dark humor as the servant attempts to raise himself above the mess of the poor to the different mess of the rich. ]]>

A massive undertaking. Essentially five separate books, that honestly almost require to be re-read (which I will do someday, but I need to rest my book-nerd) to fully understand the scope of the entire work.
One of the most challenging and enjoyable reads I have done in awhile. ]]>
