Book Review

Oh Yes. I've finished the novel, which I borrowed from the school library, in two days.
The Reluctant Fundamentalist.
Well, I expected it to be more factual or tactical at first, which is why I chose it. But, romance still plays a big part. Who knows, when the main character is a Pakistani in the United States and faced lots of difficulties, would someday attract a beauty?
I really thought that it would be some sort of insightful on how life is going to be as a foreigner in the United States, but I got it all wrong. He wasn't a foreigner at all and eventually became a high flying employee of a company. Bravo.
And the romance part, plus the making love part with naked parts, with quotes such as the entrance between your legs is wet, == was quite like pretty sad though for the ending. Erica is no where to be found. It's pretty nice to see people write about first love thing and how far they would go for each other. It's like Erica would die for Chris, but she wouldn't do so because of Changez, and Changez would live as Chris, but at the same time die for Erica.
Well, it's part of my assignments, the book review in Reading. Is this what I'm writing now considered a review? XD (more pages perhaps )

A nice sentence : Perhaps something of us is now outside, and something outside is now within us.
Wow!
