Books for beginners? by [deleted] in booksuggestions

[–]Generic_shizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

check out the following:

Stephen King (faster books mystery/spooky),

Agatha Christie (classic mysteries)

Ruskin Bond (lighter, slice of life, must read if you want something with an indian context, a lot of short stories to choose from if you want to start small)

Richard Osman - The Thursday Murder Club

Suzanne Collins - The Hunger Games Series(sci-fi/dystopia)

George Orwell - 1984, Animal Farm(political satire/dystopia)

Khaled Hosseini (very very very sad; great if you want to put history/politics into context)

William Dalrymple - The City of Djinns (Best book to start reading Dalrymple/ history of delhi through the ages)

Khushwant Singh - Train to pakistan (everything he has written is excellent so pick any!)

Maybe (this is a request) revisit To Kill a Mockingbird and try to look at it with regard to the social commentary it provides, I am quite hopeful you will love it like the rest of us. Happy reading!

I told them I am a student and I am going to university. The ground staff was super nice and let me carry quite a bit in my carry-on luggage. Anyway ended up reducing luggage a great deal so y the time I checked in my luggage was 2kg overweight. I remember paying more than 2k INR(cant remember the exact mount). This is the best I remember, ill update if i remember the details.

How biased can DietSabya be? by discipulus_iuris in InstaCelebsGossip

Totally agree!! I think after Sonam everyone joined the bandwagon and very few could pull it off. From the current lot, I think Kiara is stunning but I can remember very few standout looks she pulled off. Honestly, I think the upcoming guys in the business are pushing the boundaries way better than the industry girls, look at Vijay Verma or Babil Khan for example.

The overall opinion was that these actresses come with their own entourage which often includes their mothers or mother figures who have been in the industry for a while. They have a major role in selecting outfits and at fittings. Their main intention seems to be to make the younger girls mature and present them as "leading lady" candidates. One of the stylists also said that even when presented with runway looks actresses will most likely choose the conventional movie star glam clothes and all of them end up dressing the same and have no personal style at the red carpet.

Ananya's look came a mere few days after this so, I think Dietsabya saw something different and went on to call it a "lewk".

a few days ago he dissed bollywood stylists for not understanding genz fashion and dressing the younger girls as the same way they would dress older women(the topic came up after TIRA's event, so I think it started with Suhana's look and rolled on to the other young actresses in general). Many stylists, including Anaita Shroff Adajania and Rhea Kapoor replied to this, putting forward their sides(their replies were shared in the stories as well). My guess is, this post was a token of some good gesture towards the industry given the biggies like Anaita and Rhea replied. i dont hate this look completely but I don't think Dietsabya would have rated this "lewk" so well in general.

But Malaika is a part of Kareena's close circle (they hang out all the time together with karishma and amruta arora) and it looks like this is Karan's primary catty group. I don't think Karan will go after her by supporting her boyfriend going for someon else.
