About book Karachi, You're Killing Me! (2014)

A pointless jumble of words at worst, an elevated blog post in Cliftonian English at best - it turned out to be an utter waste of time - and money. I don't understand how such books even get published. It's not even good gossip, such as in Shobha De mode. I keep up my hopes high for Pakistani English fiction to mature up but I suppose it will be a long time before Pakistan produces something solid and universal in English.A novel without a story, without an idea to hold it together, without characters except cardboard cliches that looked so much alike that their only distinguishable features are their names. My expectations with this book were not very high before starting it, thanks to the reviews on Goodreads.com. The book was more of a 'daily diary' of the protagonist with no interesting inciting incident to it. The protagonist's continuous whinning about her job duties was quite annoying, keeping in mind that she maintained a regular social life which should have been enough for her not to complain too much. The drive of protagonist's motivation towards something was also missing as far as I could read the book (till 130th page).The good part is that this book portrays some of the harsh Pakistani realities. Being a debut book, it's an average effort also is a progressive step for Pakistani writers.

Do You like book Karachi, You're Killing Me! (2014)?

Plotless. Not bad though for a first try. It was entertaining though far from classic.
