I feel everyone who wants to adopt a kitten in bangalore should keep me informed because I can't go one month without finding kittens!

Okay so long thread ahead.
Ria Chopra gets a disproportionate amount of hate which can only be explained as misogyny when you haven't read the book. If you have read it and disliked it, perfectly fair and completely okay to critique THE BOOK.

some of you have such an innate need to sound edgy that you don't even recognise misogyny

but many of the same people stay silent when male celebrities associate with openly harmful figures or face serious allegations themselves
Is it misogynistic to criticise a woman? Obviously not. Women should be held accountable like anyone else. But the issue is the scale and

intensity of the scrutiny.
Women are endlessly dissected for minor mistakes, while male celebrities guilty of far worse like abuse, exploitation, violence etc continue to receive support, excuses, and silence.

Having to read Ria Chopra would be the second worst experience in Ruskin Bond’s life after Emergency

Stepped out after the longest time only because I wanted to visit Nuha in Indiranagar
If there's one dish I'm gonna request you to try, get the Nihari Bunny Chow. It's Nihari served in a scooped loaf of bread. Utterly delicious
Also got the Parotha Smash Burger and Mango Eclat

#Bookworm on Church Street flooded due to heavy #Bengalururains on April 29. Nearly 4,000-5,000 books suspected to be damaged, owners say.

If you liked this book, may I suggest you read The Wall by Marlen Haushofer.
Similar eerie setting because you don't know what has led to their isolation and being cut off from the rest of the world, a woman protagonist, quiet and bleak.
