The perfect way to tell the one you love "My Mind is Made Up, I'm Afraid its You"

Every page is filled with laughter and joy or with the anticipation of laughter and joy.

'My Mind is Made up, I'm Afraid it's You!', by Aditha Dissanayake is a book for everyone who has known love, who is in love or who is about to fall in love.

The fifteen stories deal with love in its best form - when it is fresh and innocent - when it is as pure as a drop of dew. They are, to quote from the back cover, enticing stories for those who are at that stage of life when a touch of a hand or a glance of an eye could awaken the tender emotions of love into life.

Written in a simple, yet breathtaking style, in the story titled 'Gravel', a young monk tries to grapple with forbidden emotions. In 'SL 3685', a Professor determined to stay a bachelor for the rest of his life, finds himself falling in love with an unseen student. But not all the stories are as simple as they seem. In 'Petals on a Wet Black Bough', Akeshi, a thirteen year old girl who has just attained age, begins to be aware of the sexual differences between herself and her neighbour, Mahela Aiya. All of a sudden he turns into a different person - she notices his short cropped hair, his broad shoulders. She wonders if he would instinctively know of the change that had occurred within her when they next meet.


The book is the ideal gift to tell the one you love 'My Mind is Made Up, I'm Afraid It's You!'
