Mongol

by Sergei Bodrov

The sweeping steppe and frozen mountains definitely made for lovely views, but I felt that, for an epic, this completely missed the mark. I had anticipated a saga outlining the rise to power of the Great Khan, but, actually, it was quite a bit of love story, a little bit about brotherhood, and a quick narration at the end to say “and then I rose to power”.

meh.

A bit painful to get through (rated 2 stars)

Once Upon a Timezone

by Neelesh Misra

It seemed as though the whole book was a very poor translation of what might have been poetic in an eastern language. Except that it was written originally in English. The story reaches for being cute, but the characters are too overdone to come across as realistic or even likeable.

I could feel the effort that went into writing this book as I read it- not relaxing, not enjoyable.

It came free in my housemate's Marie Claire (rated 4 stars)

The Wonder Spot

by Melissa Bank

I was desparate for something to read, having quickly consumed the four books that I brought with me to Bangladesh. So, despite my concern at reading something that came free in a girly magazine, I swooped on the chance to borrow it. And was actually surprised and the interest that the story held for me and in the writing. It’s cute, a bit angsty, but holds its own against the whole generic Bridget Jones wanna bes… in the next class up, I’d say.

Why I recommend "Little Miss Sunshine"

Little Miss Sunshine

by Jonathan Dayton

Austrlian humor in an American movie… brilliantly funny and no “Hollywood ending”. Gotta love it.
