What are you reading and book reviews

Been reading the book of Slumdog Millionaire, Q&A by Vikas Swarup.
Infinitely superior than the film. I found the film quite average and overrated but my Mum had mentioned the radio serial was good so I thought I'd give the source material a shot. Very enjoyable book, quite harsh at times but a satisfying read while still being very easy to read.

Does make me start wanting to take up charity work though! But I think that's the credit to how well it manages to be emotive but not over the top.
