1.5

The Kitty Party Murder by Kiran Manral is a riveting and satirical murder mystery, witty journey of a mother and her detective friend to find the culprit. Kanan Mehra aka Kay is fed up with her daily life, bored to the gills with motherhood.

Kay's ultimate task is to get into a kitty party group and disentomb their secrets as the twelve members of the Kitty Party are the prime suspects.

Kiran Manral will take you to the wonderful world of exquisite humor, and her beautiful narrative of daily life in Mumbai. One of the lovely things about this book is that it blends two different genres into one fine novel. This was an easy and simple read, rather sarcastic and calming. It was a bit lagging sometimes, but Manral's hysterical writing style kept it entertaining. This was indeed a hilarious and refreshing read. If you want to read something that calm you down and split your gut, then this book is you!
