You talk about selling snake oil and you talk about ‘The 4-hour body’, it sounds same, but boy is the author talented. Timothy Ferriss can convince you to rub sprite to get a better skin. And trust me, when he says it you will rub it. As mentioned on the cover, ‘The 4-hour body’ is [...]

Book Review: Last Man in Tower by Aravind Adiga

Book-Review-Last-Man-In-Tower-Aravind-Adiga

Don’t judge a book by it’s author. When I read ‘The White Tiger’ by Aravind Adiga I was in awe of him for days. I planned to read all the books by all the authors who had won The Man Booker prize even once, but ironically it was Aravind Adiga again who saved me from [...]

Battleship takes you on a ride you regret getting onto in the first place Seldom does it happen that I watch two really really bad movies within the space of a week. First Bittoo Boss and then- Battleship. Despite the ‘OMG! I have to see the movie’ trailer, Battleship is just an awful excuse for [...]

inside-coca-cola-book-review

Inside Coca Cola: A CEO’s Life Story of Building The World’s Most Popular Brand is one of those books which leaves you with a lot of working tactics, but lacks the glue. It indeed sounds coming directly from the horse’s mouth, but the presentation is not reader friendly. I read it because I wanted to [...]

Everything that can go wrong with a movie goes wrong with Bittu Boss You know how they say you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover. Well, you shouldn’t judge a movie by it’s trailer either. Bittoo Boss is a perfect testament for this. A movie that promised so much with its trailer but boy [...]

Losing-My-Virginity-Richard-Branson-Book-Review

Story Telling is nothing but an art and very few authors I have read in the past one year have really mastery over the art. As a matter of fact the art of story telling is something that lies at the core of entrepreneurship – from a sales pitch, to fund raising, to attracting talent [...]

Book Review: Scammed-Confessions Of A Confused Accountant By Anonymous

April 11, 2012
Book-Review-Scammed-Confessions-Of-Confused-Accountant

Scammed-Confessions of a Confused Accountant is an utter disappoint and flounders an opportunity to build on the reader interest that a book by an anonymous author promises. The author has tried to capitalize on the much-hyped accounting scam purported at the erstwhile Satyam Computer. Unfortunately, the story appears too-good-to-true and resembles a second grade bollywood [...]

Book Review: ‘Bluegrass State of Mind’ By Kathleen Brooks

April 2, 2012
bluegrass-state-of-mind-book-review

Bluegrass State of Mind is a  part romance part mystery novel that left me feeling a tad disappointed especially since the novel started on a really high note. In my opinion, Bluegrass State Of Mind did not do much to delight me except for maybe transporting me to a happy countryside place where everyone is [...]

Movie Review: The Woman In Black

A british horror story that goes nowhere and neither gives the chills one would expect I am personally not a fan of watching horror or gore movies so i may not have a lot to compare The Woman In Black with. Despite that it does not take a Sherlock to say that The Woman In [...]
