...I just finished reading Shantaram, by Gregory David Roberts.

I'm at a complete loss.

Truly, one of the most amazing books I've ever read.

the last paragraph of the book; not really spoilery, but definitely beautiful )

That's a beautiful quote. I'm not familiar with the author, but I may have to look for that book now.

Oh, Shantaram - that book broke my heart. I actually loved that book so much I made a music mixed inspired by it - trying to get my Norwegian friends to read it. Hee. So glad you liked it.

And I love the end quote.

This is one of those rare books I literally couldn't put down. I read over 200 pages of it every day. I ended up giving my copy to a friend who was being stationed in Iraq but I may have to get it back.

I just wish the author was spending more time writing the rest, and less time working on the movie version of this! The story isn't over yet.

Intrigued indeed. I will have to find time to read it when I am away from classes. Thanks for the review.

XOXO
