Over the past couple of months, I've read a few books that I didn't get a chance to review yet. These were all enjoyable in different ways and are recommended reads. A Will to Kill by R. V. Raman I've been looking for an Indian mystery for a while now. So when I came across A Will to Kill in Netgalley set in one of my favorite places in India (also close to my home town), I just had to request it. In so many ways, this is a typical Agatha Christie type mystery - there's a death (in an isolated mansion, no less) and the investigator/detective tries to solve the mystery. Harith Athreya is visiting the owner of the mansion, Bhaskar Fernandez, where a small gathering has been planned for the owner's relatives and friends. Bhaskar has written two wills - and how he dies will determine which will goes into effect. That night, there is a murder and Athreya spends the next few days trying to find the culprit. I generally enjoy the Agatha Christie class of murder mysteries.
This week and reading, not so much. I've been watching some TV but mostly spending lots of meaningless hours on my iPad. I only just discovered the iTunes University and decided to sign up for courses I've always wanted to take (Literature-related) but never could fit into my major (Computer Engineering). One of the courses I started was Fiction for Young Adults and another one which I'm hoping to get started on is Creative Writing.
The other thing I've been doing on my iPad is playing Clumsy Ninja. Seriously, this is one of the best graphics I've seen in games, because you can tickle this ninja of yours, lift him by the leg, give him high five, throw him through a basketball hoop. Man, I got a nice laugh out of it all.

On the book front, I finished only one book since the last update - Tina's Mouth, which I reviewed this week. I'm still listening to Life of Pi in the car (please, don't ever listen to this one as an audiobook - some descriptions have made me want to pull over and puke). Other than that, I started Rainbow Rowell's Fangirl this weekend. Fangirl may well be my favorite Rowell book and it's made me want to start writing fiction of my own.
