Been a while since I did a book update. Decided to read this light read. Loved equal music years ago. #books #reading #readersofbluesky #reader #asuitableboy #vikramseth

This question on Masto got me thinking:

"Have you ever read any #book that’s a slice of life? "

I replied with RK Narayan's Malgudi stories, but I've just now realised that #aSuitableBoy could technically be described as slice of life. The fattest slice in history, but still 😍😀 #Booksky

For your February fun, A-Cover-A-Day, books I love. That's all.

Indian writer and activist Vikram Seth, best known for his bestselling mega-novel “A Suitable Boy”, was BOTD in 1952, turning 73 today. #vikramseth #supergays #bornonthisday #asuitableboy

Finally finished this behemoth after picking it up from the library back in September. At 1,349 pages, it is officially the longest book I've ever personally finished. Overall very good,eben if it's slow at certain points. Richly detailed characters who I will not forget anytime soon. #asuitableboy

Kinda thinking of rewatching A Suitable Boy, just to feel something 🤭 #ASuitableBoy #MiraNair #IshaanKhatter

Judging by the first five minutes of clunky expository dialogue of #ASuitableBoy on iPlayer they’ve taken this beautiful novel and turned it into Downton Abbey on Ganges, which is tragic. Should I keep going or give up now?

never read it but i bet #ASuitableBoy ends with somebody* realising a boy is suitable

(*poss the boy???)

Whoooo! I remembered most of #ASuitableBoy from reading it ages ago, but I forgot this plot twist.

Weekend so far; there’s a theme.....

#ASuitableBoy full of unforgettable characters, charm and some great actors who make those characters come alive. It’s a shame the final episode is tomorrow.
What a line ‘we will all become Ma one day’ #desiMadreamcometrue 😂
