( ) I absolutely love this book! For me, this book makes me laugh out loud and helps me relate to so many things on so many levels. For a first timer, this author is exceptionally good and I would happily read many more books for he. This is a typical chick lit, about a 29 year woman who is on the look out for Mr Right, but has to put up with her mum, nosy family members, her ex and even her gym instructor. Her friends are her only solace and in the same boat as her. This book shows a modern woman in a modern India, not the stereotypical literature that we are used to. Although a little exaggerated, this is a very readable book and a must read if you are single and looking for THE RIGHT MAN in your life. The usual woes and dramas of an unmarried working lady, in a culture that still hasn't quite warmed up to the idea of late marriages. She desperately keeps an eye out for THE ideal guy to spend the rest of her life with, in the meantime dividing her life between thick friendships and hilarious encounters at work. An amusing read :) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
In a city where old is meeting new, daughters are surprising mothers, and love is breaking all the rules, this heartfelt and wickedly funny cross-cultural debut novel introduces a smart, irreverent young woman searching for independence and matrimony in a culture bound by tradition. Between elegant soirees and the occasional mortifying mishap, Aisha Bhatia's job as guest relations manager at New Delhi's five-star Grand Orchid Hotel is intermittently fabulous--she certainly knows her wines and cheeses. But despite a life filled with good friends and first-class travel accommodations, the fact is that not many twenty-nine-year-old women in India are single--as Aisha's mother never fails to remind her. Somewhere a clock is ticking, though as far as Aisha is concerned, it can be cheerfully drowned out by laughter over a champagne brunch. Yet when the handsomely chiseled Karan Verma arrives from New York, Aisha experiences an unexpected attitude adjustment. Karan is everything she's ever wanted...that is, if she actually knew what she wanted. Is it possible that she's about to find out? Savvy, sexy, and unforgettable, Almost Single tackles the loving, exasperating tug-of-war between mothers and daughters, traditional customs and contemporary romance--and what happens when a modern Indian woman is caught in the middle.
