Book Review: The Chronicles of Dathra, a dowdy girl from Kuwait

It's been so long since I got myself into reading novels. I bought the book back in 2011 and it stayed on the shelf with the rest of the books. Although I started 3 books but I still haven't finished them, because simply I got bored of the endless details. They still have a bookmark in them, just for the minute I decide to go back and finish them. At the mean time, I felt I needed to revive the reading sense in me. I was scanning my shelves which over time started creeping with more books than I would read in a year time, I pulled "The chronicles of Dathra, a dowdy girl from Kuwait" by our famous blogger Danderma.

I really never thought I would enjoy the book, since if I was going to read a story that was published on a blog, I would have just searched for it online and started reading whenever a new chapter was published. I'm not sure why I waiting all this time to read it but the book is amazing. Definitely, page turner and I could have finished it in one go but decided not to and enjoying it on my own pace.

Dathra, a fat woman who loves food. While reading I compared myself to the woman in the book. Her cravings made me crave lots of food and imagined new recipes in my mind. I guess this was a great book for me because I needed the laughter and something to shake the stress off me. The only thing that made me a bit emotionally annoyed is the fact that does it really happen that we don't think of what people think of us. We just don't care or we just ignore the fact that we care and put a mask of indifference and enjoy our lives the way they should be. Don't things happen to teach a lesson in life and so on. It could be that I'm not making sense right now, but I kinda felt what if Dathra really thought of this and confronted her fears by talking to people rather than building mental thoughts about something that could be either true or not.

Another thing, I know in the book, it is mentioned that the book was edited electronically, it just drives me nuts to see simple mistakes that could have been avoided. No offense, it is just a habit that started back in university when I was privileged to be the university magazine editor several times and a contributor whenever I could.

Ne ways, regardless, the book is amazing and worth reading. It is funny and witty and will make you giggle and smile every once in a while. I already recommended it to several of my friends and that makes me happy too. I can't wait for volume II!

Intragrams - April 2012

@ the farm

It was one of those days, where out of the blue, my brother calls and says, we are having Friday lunch late. We went to the farm, the progress is amazing, the swimming pool and the rooms will be ready in no time. Summer is just around the corner and we all can't wait to wear our swimming suits and jump in the pool for fun. So, my brother also decided to host dinner. He called himself as the master chef and honestly, he proved it right. I'm not a big fan of machboos at all (rice cooked in stew) other than my mom's, but I really enjoy the food. The kabobs were perfectly seasoned and not to mention, he also grilled some fish. I don't understand why it was part of the menu but it just was.

Making stew, and being creative.

Keeping the kabobs warm.

It never goes wrong with the matches right lol.

7leeb bosh, gahwah, and chilling.

bro fixing the tv.
