Booooookkkkssss
Going along with book postings - here is a good book that I am reading right now:
I believe the movie based on this novel is out in theaters now. It's a great book about an Indian family in America, the challenges they face, their culture and understanding who you are and where you come from. I highly recommend it!

Some Good Books
Hey Guys,
I wanted to give you some recommendations for some good reading. I have lately been on a women's self-actualization and awakening kick, and I thought I would share some of the books that have inspired me as a woman. I relate to all of the protagonists in these novels, and they have taught me in humorous and endearing ways to BE TRUE TO YOUR HEART AND YOUR DREAMS. If you have some favorite female heroines to share, please send them my way. Thanks!
