| | 1. | [no image] | Sister of My Heart
from Bantam Doubleday Dell
Customer Review:
This was the first book I read following the death of my younger sister - and it is without a doubt one of the best novels about sisters (related or not) I have ever read. A fantastic author, and about 12 months later I had a chance to meet Divikaruni at the Kentucky Women's Writers Conference in... more info

| | 3. |  | The Mistress of Spices
from Black Swan
Customer Review:
I first read this book when I was in Paris on a trip when I lived elsewhere in France. Perhaps it reminded me of my many Indian friends or the types of tales I missed reading, but, it remains one of my favorite tales. I like the fact that it is anchored in the present, SF Bay Area, but has a fantasy... more info

from Abacus
Customer Review:
This book was full of beautiful potential, but the characters where completely without true richness. The main character was so whiney and and annoying. She complained about a childhood and parents that were typically flawed. The author gave a vague and rediculous episode that was suppose to fuel... more info

Stepping Off the Edge: Learning & Living Spiritual Practice
A group of short stories around the subject of arranged marriage. These stuners will leave you breathless. Sad, poignant, beautiful. Unforgettable. Haunting. I like this book as well as Divakaruni's poetry. Read this before Sister... more info

from Abacus
Customer Review:
I really enjoyed Sister of My Heart and was excited to learn there was a sequel ... and I TRIED to like it, I really did but the only reason I kept plugging away was in hopes that it would improve. The style of writing is MUCH different from the first book and no one is very likeable. Read her... more info

| | 10. |  | The Unknown Errors of Our Lives
from Abacus
Customer Review:
My freshman English class in college was required to read another of Divakaruni's books, Arranged Marriage. I enjoyed it, so my professor loaned me this one. Wow. It's an amazing book, and Divakaruni is an amazing writer. The way she delves into the human psyche is stunning. This is a must-read.
