Review:
Short stories are always better when you don’t know what to
read next. Half pants, full pants is a great book with some very simple and
some very intricate tales which revolves around the lives of characters that
are as real as air. This book contains true accounts from a small place Shimoga
that you can find really touching and remarkable.
I loved the former stories more then the latter ones because
they had an unmatchable charm in them. You can't put the book down no matter
what. Every story takes you down the lane, make you remember the old days when
you did all those things in your childhood. You smile without being conscious
enough.
The good thing is that the author didn’t waver from his
theme and stick to what was expected from the book. And the real life tales
thing made everything much more better and warming.
Every character was special in the book, it is hard to pick
one. There was so much in everyone that things were elevated beyond normalcy.
The cover and the title also makes you smile. Every single thing
of the book is crafted in such a way that you become nostalgic. The good thing
is the variation, it was everywhere in the book.
All in all the book was a great, quick and easy read. It had
a everything which a grown up needs in this running world, to have a break and
relish some moments of happiness.
