*SPOILER FREE REVIEW*

LANGUAGE  : ENGLISH
GENRE  : FICTION
LENGTH  : 122
PUBLISHER : Srishti publishers
PUBLISHED : 10 july 2018

DESCRIPTION  / SUMMARY  : This story revolves around Aditya, a young traveller who meets up zinnia a young maid in the house in which he resides as a PG on his tour to darjeleen. As time passes by the silence between them breaks and they turn up being best friends.

But will zinnia accept his love? In the midst of all this their life takes a tragic turn,
They stumble upon a sinful mystery.
what is it? Will they be able to live the life they wanted to?

OVERVIEW  / MY OPINION : This book was very well written. The starting itself got me intruged into it. The descriptions of the characters and places was done perfectly, there was not any  kind of info dumping anywhere in it. The cover design was appropriately chosen.
Also this is not like any other stories that I find in Indian novels. The plot was fresh and neat.  The writing style was good. The magic happened when the story took a twist & it was the I-DIDN'T-EXPECT-THAT-TO-COME, Kinda movement. The only part wherein this book disappointed me a bit was when the twist didn't last long, it felt as if the author hurried a lot to finish the story. If only the latter part of the book could have been longer , it would create the perfect environment of mystery and thriller.
But overall the book was a good, light and a quick read.  Definitely recommended if you're a beginner and also if you're looking for a fresh and easy going read.

MY RATING : 3.5/5

BOOK REVIEW: SEDUCTIVE AFFAIR by Rishab puri







Title  : Seductive Affair 
Author: Rishab puri
Language : English
Publisher: Srishti publishers
Published: 10 July 2018
Book length: 176


DESCRIPTION/ SUMMARY:

Prisha Khatri is a regular college graduate, focused on her career, desperate to finally move out of her parents’ house and freshly dumped by her successful fiancรฉ. When she lands a job at a prestigious media house, she’s glad to have something to take her mind off her heartbreak. What she doesn’t expect is to be landed on a business trip with a famously fiery reporter Rajesh Lagheri. He’s travelling to a business conference for a story and doesn’t seem impressed by her involvement. But as soon as they’re out of the office, things change and it becomes clear that there is more to Rajesh’s trip than meets the eye. As Prisha is drawn into the story he’s trying to hide from their editor, their hunt for the story grows more intense and she finds herself growing closer to Rajesh. As their chemistry threatens to overwhelm them and Prisha is pulled deeper into the Seductive Affair, she must decide what matters most to her matters of the head or of the heart.[sic]





OVERVIEW/ MY OPINION: Firstly, before starting with my review over this book I'd like to clear it out that this is solely my overview about this book. Please don't be offended by it.
In case you still get offended, I owe you an apology for it. But let's just consider the fact that everyone has a different liking towards certain things, the things that are loved by me will be hated by you and vice versa.  I respect your opinion & expect the same from your part.๐Ÿ™‚

This book was a serious disappointment, honestly after reading "Flying without wings" by Rishabh puri , I was really excited about this book, but however it didn't just match up with my expectations and the reason for which is quite obvious. The title and the summary just did not do justice to the content inside, the summary seemed to be like a women empowerment cum belive in hope kinda read  and the title as a Thriller + Romance but the content inside was a plain , boring and a normal bollywood clichรฉ for which the ending was quite expected . However I like the narration of this book. The writing style was average, But still  it just didn't work out for me.

MY RATING : 2/5

In case you wish to give this book a try

BOOK REVIEW : LOVE A LITTLE STRONGER by PREETI SHENOY










Does anyone of you maintain a diary? Or has attempted to maintain one?
If yes, then you'll surely know the feeling of nostalgia that you get while you go through it after a few days, months or even years !
And what say about the feeling we get while reading someone else's diary !;-p but what if you're caught, you're doomed ๐Ÿ˜‚. Apart from all this it's sometimes beneficial and sometimes not.  Now I know, you'll might be wondering why I'm I suddenly talking about diaries? Well it's because today's review is to some extent related to it.  Because it's about the book Love A Little Stronger by Preeti Shenoy .

LANGUAGE: English
GENRE: Non fiction, memoir
PAGES/LENGTH: 164
PUBLISHER :  SRISHTI PUBLISHERS

DESCRIPTION : Life is a collection of moments, some memorable and some mundane. Often it is the tiniest things that bring the greatest joy, even though at that time, we have no idea that what we are witnessing may be magical, something that we will talk about and laugh over after many years.
Packed with her hilarious narratives, poignant observations and a writing style loved by millions across the world, this book is certain to strike a chord with anybody who has children or who has been a child, themselves.[Sic..]


ABOUT THE AUTHOR: 

Preeti Shenoy is the bestselling author of Life is What You Make It and nine other titles. Her books have been translated into several Indian and foreign languages. She is among the highest selling authors in India. She is also a speaker, columnist, and artist. Preeti has been featured on BBC, Conde Nast, Verve, India Today and all other major media.[Sic..]

OVERVIEW/ MY OPINION:  I had an amazing time reading this book and now a really hard time reviewing it, can you describe things that speak and are attached to your soul? Not always right? Initially this book seemed like a really easy and quick read, honestly I thought that reading 164 pgs is not a  big deal, but as I started off with my journey through this book, I  realised how wrong I was. Believe me, once you start reading it, you might not want to put it down, however after every couple of chapters I found myself shutting the book and think about whatever this author has to speak about.(ps. That's why I'm so late to review it)
Every chapter teaches you a different life lesson. I found that this book changed my way of perceiving certain things for the good.
I got this book just exactly at the right time in my life.  I never found myself laughing out so much at any book. Secondly, what can I say about the writing style? Do I even need to describe it? It's something that's loved my thousands across the globe.  There's no plot as such in this book because it contains short stories/ anecdotes from the author’s life.
For all those who have ready 36 bubblegum and Candies, this book is just an updated version of it. This book is a must read for everyone, even if you hate reading. I bet it's not gonna disappoint you.

MY RATING5/5


I'm pretty sure that you'd like to give this book a try now, so here you go:

Book Review : Flying Without Wings by Rishabh Puri

How far would you take optimism in your life?
How far would you go for the promise of true love ?
How long are you agreeing to walk with someone through all their good & bad times?
Are you willing to be the kind of person who gives others are reason to live?
A reason to fly? A reason to believe that true love does exists ?
Hello there peeps, hope you'll are doing well.
Firstly I'd like to apologize for not being able to post for about 2 weeks the reason being that I was really caught up with college & book reviews. However I'm back today with another book review titled Flying without wings by Rishab Puri
 LANGUAGE: English
GENRE : YA romance
PAGES: 190
PUBLISHED: 2017
PUBLISHER: Harpercollins


SUMMARY/ PLOT: 

This story revolves around Milli bajwa a common girl from chandigarh who works at an airport and Karan singhania a young millionaire.  They both have their own set of burdens to bear and face off.
Milli, is burdened by her family & financial  troubles, karan has his heart broken is many ways (from illness to failed relationships)
They happen to meet on an online dating site and from there begins their adventure, but there's something that keeps bothering milli,
Karan has never revealed his identity to her.
What is it that keeps holding him back?



OVERVIEW/ MY OPINION:   I had mixed feelings while reading this book.
 Firstly there are certain scenes in this book that confused me a little while reading.
However there were many things that I totally loved in this book. Firstly the writing style, I have honestly never been so impressed by any author's writing style !
Rishab puri really has a fantastic flair in writing, he has tackled the modern day romance and has guided it towards the path of commitment, hope , trust and loyalty.
My favourite character in this book is definitely karan singhania ;-) he is the kind of person anyone would like to be friends with.
Secondly most of conversation between milli and Karan is in the form of messages,  which makes it a really effervescent read !
Overall this was a very pleasant and easy going  quick  read  with short chapters.
And honestly I feel that this book is so important in today's world where among a few masses,  love is just a quote, affection has been replaced by attractions and feelings are just  not considered real.
 I'd recommend this book to anyone who wants to read a simple  light hearted &  yet a heartwarming romance.


MY RATING: 4/5
