Mrsfunnybones:-)my take;-)

Just dig in and I bet you won't let it down!!!.. Challenge!!!....and that makes Twinkle as a Novelist a winner already!!!... I remember tweeting her once that i loved mrsfunnybones more then the Twinkle in the reel and wish she had not wasted her precious years in acting...she would have been a successful author already(apropos her weekly column with the same name in TOI) You can actually judge a good book by it's back cover or it's Prologue/Foreword!!....in this case you can easily anticipate the laughter this novel promises to tickle your weak bones definitely!!...among various things that she said in Foreword one thing that I really found hilarious was...""a clearer view of life is probably the only silver lining to having to hoist your boobs over your shoulder and getting to the point where not only do you have eye bags, but even your eye bags begin to sag''" It was 1st September and it was Mom's Birthday...so thought of gifting her mrsfunnybones as she must've heard me blabbering an umpteen times about my fav weekly column that Twinkle Khanna writes so brilliantly!!!...so the book which I thought of gifting her kept it for myself instead.... Furthermore as you proceed in one of the chapters she writes...""I get there and mother dearest is sitting with her close friend Honey and is calling up another close one Bubble... Honey..Bubble and Dimple...so does anyone still wonder why I have been lumped with a name that rhymes with sprinkle and wrinkle??!!"" When reading a book or a novel one must remember to finish it in one go or if it's thick then sparing few hours from your precious time each day is a must to enjoy it thoroughly...and that's the basic thing about reading that you can't make a long gap because not only the flow is lost but half of the fun is killed most importantly....So only after having read few of the chapters ..poor mrsfunnybones had been lying unattended since September..and had to start all over again..right from the scratch... Basically it's like reading a personal dairy in which no one is spared from the digs she has made..be it Twinkle herself...her mom...Akki or the political scenario... So as an author Twinkle has done a commendable job in giving you a peekaboo into her working scenario....her personal space(her home her kids her hubby)...her wonderful camaraderie that she shares with her mom....and all in a funny...comical...yet in a witty and a philosophical way...
