UNBOXING : A PARCEL FROM BLOOMSBURY
So, Bloomsbury India sent something my way recently. It was wrapped as a gift and inside were a new released book and a pin stating that I am a member of a club. To know which one see the photo below.
Yes, that's right I am now a member of the bitter pill social club. :D

Synopsis of the book (from Goodreads)-
Witness the private life of the world’s most beautiful animals.
You know exactly who they are. The ones who walk right past club lines, who get what they want before they ask for it. It’s a familiar cast: the centre of attention, the shameless flirt, the loudmouth, the narcissistic writer. You’ve seen them all. You’ve felt their Gucci-anointed aura. Laughing and dancing. Kissing the wrong people at the wrong time. Swaying to their own beat. Going out every night they’re sad. Finding solace in the crowd in a city paved with mildly good intentions and cocaine lines. A city of smooth talkers, armchair activists, and the rich brats of Instagram. A place to talk pop spirituality and purple prose in connoisseur-only jazz clubs.
The Bitter Pill Social Club takes a look at the lives of the Kochhar family, who find themselves drifting apart in the city of djinns, gins, and fake friends wrapped up in cigarette smoke. As one of their own gears up to tie the knot, three siblings come home to the neurotic parents who raised them. Meanwhile the parents face the family patriarch’s constant judgment. Divorce, disappointment, and disasters ensue as the entitled Kochhar brood dodges old lovers and marriage proposals.
Well, I am really excited to read this book. To follow my reading and food journey join me on Instagram | Twitter
