When The Devil whispers ( By Ajinkya Bhasme ) : Book Review

Today I will talk about a book whose cover will not fail to catch your eyes at the very first sight ! And of course the title is suspenseful and absoluteky quirky. Author : Ajinkya Bhasme Book Length : 254 pages Price : 290/- Publisher : Notion Press Genre : Fiction - Crime Thriller The mysterious events start from the very first page where a lady is trapped in a wet , dark , isolated dungeon. The torture is gruesome. The very mention of the fact that this story is inspired by real life events made it a more engaging read . Either she is in her dream or she is having hallucination of some kind with a brutal supernatural type of force in her vicinity. It seems first like a horror story but then the plot twists into something different , intriguing with thrilling and bone chilling crime mystery. The characters are described well by author Ajinkya Bhasme with the backdrops and situations of investigation and search by police are aptly narrated. The narration style is actually commendab...

Definitely we all need motivation in our lives ! QOtd : What do you do when you need motivation ? When I feel down I try to watch some inspiring videos , read uplifting books and quotes and talk to close people. Author Arun Malik has published such 8 books. Two of them I am writing my thoughts on. Book 1 : Reflections This book has plethora of quotes.It talks about importance of inspiring and motivating others.

Bad language even if said in anger without real intentions can be get stored in someone's memory in a misunderstood way that can bring them pain.We need to be thoughtful what we deliver in our speech as it is powerful.Similarly the importance of thoughtful parenting is unfathomable. People with good strong sel...

Who Wants to Marry a Mamma's Boy and other stories - Book review

I like short stories. Authored by Mrs.Manjula Pal this book with a satirical title and artistic cover is a collection of total 8 short stories. Priced at 195/- within 118 pages they are about different women who act contrastingly in similar situations. Human emotions are complex and actions taken differ from person to person. The stories revolve around love , guilt , friendship , marriage , family life , age related gender bias , relationships along with one's life's choices in arenas of academics and career . Many a times in dilemma , few women compromise hugely due to societal pressure but again few stubbornly move forward caring about nothing. Let me talk about two stories My first love affair revolves around the dilemma of a woman who even after several years of arranged marriage quitting her job , remembers her first love. She still keeps those memories of how unrequited love felt and those sudden twists came in her early life , intact in her memories and in a diary . ...

Who Wants to Marry a Mamma's Boy ( Book Review )

I like short stories. Authored by Mrs.Manjula Pal this book with a satirical title and artistic cover is a collection of total 8 short stories within 118 pages telling about different women who act contrastingly in similar situations. Human emotions are complex and actions differ from person to person. The stories revolve around love , guilt , friendship , marriage , family life , relationships along with one's life's own choices in arenas of academics and career . Many a times in dilemma , few women compromise hugely but again few stubbornly move forward caring about nothing.Vivid emotions of not only women but also men are shown focusing on how few gender differentiating cultural beliefs shape a women's lifestyle and that ends tragically . Narration is flawless , a light read and good for beginners. The plots are nothing extraordinary but realistic and revolve around very relatable situations. My Rate : 3.8/5 Price - 195/- Published by Rupa Publishers.

From Vedanta to Whatsapp ( Book Review )

This book exceeded my expectations. I thought it would be a normal non fiction that would talk about how life is changing with the proceeding of the years. But this book has lot of things to offer via short stories with life's amazing lessons. These stories are real life stories of world's most famous people who were from Victorian era to present day successful people which tell us believing in ourselves is the best thing we can do by changing perception that we donot need to think in a rigid way conventionally most people think do. Positive thinking , being persistent in what you love , understanding your strengths and weaknesses , accepting rejection but still walking forward with a creative mindset can let us achieve success . The stories are really beautifully compiled. A must read. The real life stories of such eminent people who failed , got rejected , society put them into defined cages but they kept hope , abd they did what they wanted to do, passion matters. These wil...
