QUEEN OF DREAMS

A completely mesmerising read! I am really into magic realism so this novel was a treat for me. The characters are so well defined. Though a fictional world, I could find no loopholes, even for the dream interpreters! NICE!! I loved the ending too! :)

Fan of the author,bang on expectations

Really so good and perfect. Easy readable. Good quality of paper and lot of information available...

It's amazing. Just loved it!

I had high expectations from the author after reading the palace of illusions . But this book definitely did not meet the expectations . Although the writing style of the author is enjoyable , there was no storyline . I didn't know after a point what is the storyline or where is the story heading . I literally skimmed through last 100 pages just to finish this book. The cost is definitely not worth the read.

Enjoyed the book

Not good ..didn't enjoy at all.

Very good book

very good

Something really different to entertain a confirmed bookaholic like me. Kept me entertained from start to, much too early, finish.

I have now read 4 of Ms. Divakaruni's books, and hope she writes another novel soon. She has a tremendous gift to make her images come to life in your head as you are reading. I also felt again that I was being given a privileged tour of a culture different than my own, and could see my own culture through different eyes. So in addition to being entertained, I was being educated. Along with a great story comes a little magic--in that way her work reminds me of Alice Hoffman--the magic seems like a completely natural and believeable part of the world. Read this book, and then read the rest of her work!

I have enjoyed several of Chitra Divakaruni's books, "Mistress of Spices" perhaps the most. "Queen of Dreams" was an interesting portrayal of an Indian family's relationship and how they adapted to American society. For my taste, however, there is a bit too much drifting off into "dream worlds".

Have read a few of Chitra's books. This is not the best I have ever read but was quite enjoyable.
