Journal Entry 3 by rapturina from Yantai, Shandong China on Friday, June 12, 2009

It's here! Thank you so much, Deepswamp, for sending me this book, it looks really good! It will have to go to Mt TBR for now, but I hope I will be able to read it soon! 

Journal Entry 4 by rapturina at Rotterdam, Zuid-Holland Netherlands on Saturday, October 02, 2010

This was an interesting read. I'm going to India myself at the end of this year, so I've been reading a lot about the country and this book was an interesting look at it. I liked how he wrote about so many different topics in separate essays, though some topics were more interesting than others. What I liked the most was how he explained everything in detail, not just stating India is "exotic", but really going into the history and talking to the people to find out reasons. So it goes much further than your usual travel story.

Journal Entry 5 by bookguide at Wijchen, Gelderland Netherlands on Wednesday, October 13, 2010

This arrived unexpectedly in my letterbox this morning! Thank you, Rapturina, for sending it to me, although I couldn't for the life of me work out if I signed up for it some time, as it doesn't appear to be a ring or ray... Half a day later, I've twigged! It's from the Two Worlds Virtual Book Box! I shall add it to Mount TBR;-)
