Not a bad read, but not exactly a great book either. Urban Shots stands somewhere in between. An average book, it is a compilation of short stories by Indian authors. The theme suits the metro and cosmopolitan crowd of today. Some of the stories are really worth reading and nicely put down. Others don't exactly make sense. I didn't quite understand how a few end. What I thought was that the stories under 'Friendship' were more like love stories and those under 'Love' were predominantly based show more on extra- marital affairs. But that's my opinion completely.
Overall, I'd say that this is an excellent initiative by Indian authors, and I have the whole collection of Urban Shots on my shelf. Best part is, being an anthology, you can read it any way, anytime and anyhow. I'm looking forward to reading the others. A huge round of applause for all the authors who contributed their stories.
As for recommendation, I'd say you can read it. The stories are short and sweet. It won't take up much time. But it might leave you a little disappointed.
