Sydney Sheldon - Tell me Your Dreams

This weekend i have deceided to spend my time with Sydney sheldon. I donwloaded this book "Tell Me Your Dreams" from the ebooks site and started reading. It helps me to understand the pshycological phenomenon MPD (Multiple Personality Disorder) otherwise calles as Disassociated Identity Disorder (DID). Ashley Patterson the heroine of the novel is working as a computer graphics programming specialist in one of the MNC and daughter of famous Cardiologist Mr Steve Patterson . The story starts with 3 characters all working for the same company as Ashley. Ashley will be puzzled by the series of murders and the strange things happening to her. She has a sucpicion that someone was stalking her. Later we come to know out of the 3, 2 are alters which are created because of her childhood trauma. The story twirls around her, how she was acquitted for the crime of murder? and how she overcomes this disorder and who helped her to overcome this disorder will be answered in the later part of the story.
Meet u all with the next book! Hopefull Sheldon, I started liking his novel. This is my third sheldon book and i agree he is a master Story Teller.
Cheers!

Indian Author Week

I have seen this book in the stands for quite some time. The book name is "If God was a Banker" by Ravi Subramanian. It was a Good Guy - Bad Guy story. The story is about 2 young IIM graduates joining the International Bank's venture in India as trainees. Good guy from South India esp Chennai who believes in honesty and simplicity opposite to the bad guy. The story takes us through their lives and their ways and experiences in reaching a top position in the bank. Quite an interesting read for me., worth spending one week end, i feel!
Cheers!

Yet another Indian Author Book

I have finished another Indian Author Book - Those Small Lil things (In Life and Love) By Rahul Saini. The guy who wrote the book is 2 or 3 years elder than me. He is an Architect working in Delhi. He is a movie buff, quotes dialogues and scenes from lot of movies. It was a ok kinda book. After reading Chetan Bhagat's books, this one lacks a clear storyline. But it brings back some of our Childhood memories.
Cheers!
