A Suitable Boy | Vikram Seth

A monster read (1349 pages), I enjoyed it very much. I learned interesting history and religious customs of 1950's India. The characters began to feel like friends to me. I enjoyed reading about the many suitors that Lata Mehra had and how her mother tried to manipulate her marriage.
Torn between 3 men, I believe that Lata finally made the right choice. I can't wait to read A Suitable Girl, when it is published on January 10, 2019.

Nute Way to go! It is an accomplishment. 6y

"I wade out to the bench, set down my wine,
My bread and cheese, and like some sage
Of old, sit down to dine.
I do not rage
Or pine
At age,
For youth once mine.
This pool, this plate, this page,
This tree whose roots are branch and tine
Holds me in its still hour-glass, its free cage."

"Last night a storm raged round the bare oak tree.
A cold, sharp rain fell; wild in pace
The ice-fed air swirled free.
Now in this place
I see
No trace
Of wind or lee,
No grass, no earth—the space
Is a clear lake, deep as my knee.
I reach its edge and view, far down, my face."

I was wondering if I were to start a blog what should I name it... I had a blog a few years back but I've grown out of that. I want something that relates to dentistry and books because I am the dentist who reads 😂 I'll also put in some dental advice.
Plus this photo does not do justice to how huge the book I am reading is
