Slumdog Millionaire the book- not as good as the movie. The book often felt disjointed and the timeline/ages of Ram were not explicitly explained enough for me to follow along well enough. But the premise of the book itself was great! The sexual content was a little weird, very man focused, but I suppose that's all books are.
However, the two main twists in the last twenty pages did not feel deserved or earned it felt thrown out of no where and out of place- very Bollywood though nonetheless
