jemini 's review for:

Western Lane by Chetna Maroo
4.0

Western Lane by Chetna Maroo: 4/5 

what a great coming of age story 
this short little novel felt like a squash match. i was breathless nearing the end. brutal but so sweetly gentle. 
i loved the plain writing that still held so much depth. and the subtleties in all the character interactions.
