I bought this in Colombo, because I wanted to read a book on my Sri Lanka trip by a local author.

I was nervous about this book, after all its a book about the life of a crow and their tribe.

Boi oh boi, I'm surprised at how this short book kept me hooked. It's simple, comfortable and leaves me thinking about the life of an ‘ordinary' crow. Now, weirdly, when I look at any crow, I'm able to think from this perspective.

I recently got shat on by a crow. I wonder if he was the local ‘Rectum Ranger champion' of the day. If you were - cheers my friend xD

Great read!
The story, atleast the starting part (Elizabeth's existential crisis) is very relatable (No, im not married but adjusting with what the society wants). That keeps me hooked. I enjoy her experiences of pleasure in eating in Italy and love the realisations she has. The second part, in India, about spirituality is good too - since it mostly relies on belief along the lines of logic, rather than complete faith. The third part, in Bali, is about love and somehow that wasn't able to keep me interested for long.
