A book launch and a note from Singapore.
Hi there.
This is a quick post typed in under ten minutes from Singapore (where I am currently on vacation) using the complimentary hotel wi-fi with a speed so good, you would think you are in a GTA game, driving a Mc.Laren F1, the scenery whizzing past in a blur, zooming from 0 to 180 in 8 seconds flat, adrenaline coursing through your veins with heart pounding madly. I could shift to Singapore, just for the Internet speeds.
The Book launch of 'The One You Cannot have' (on 6th December at Royal orchid Bangalore) went off marvelously. It was a memorable event--easily one of the best book launches I have ever had. Every single person who attended it, would agree. There was warmth, camaraderie and a spirit of celebration.
Dr.Shyam Bhat (Psychiatrist and Integrative Medicine specialist) and Vani Mahesh (founder of Easylib) were in conversation with me, about the book. They were both splendid and gracious.
A few readers, who attended the launch blogged about it. You can read two of the posts about the launch, in the links below:

This is a picture of me, clicked just before I left home, for the launch.
And here are a few more pictures from the launch
For more pictures from the launch go here
The launch was covered by Bangalore times as well as Deccan Chronicle.
The book has been getting some amazing reviews (you can check them out here and here) , and I was thrilled to see it on number 10 in the Amazon bestseller list.
You also ought to see the book at all the leading book-stores in India. (if you don't find it, please let me know :) ) Some select Cafe Coffee Days too are selling my book!
All in all, I am glad that my 5th baby, has got a grand welcome into this world.
So a large thank you to every single one who made an effort to attend my launch! And also a big thank you to each and every one who bought my book.
And with that I sign off. I am heading towards all the fabulous malls in Singapore, planning to shop till I drop!
Ciao! Will write again soon.
Till then--keep that sunny smile.
Preeti
