This book 'Pebbles'  is a beautiful anthology of poems by the author Swati Khatri . This is the first book . I have actually earlier read the second part 'Pebbles on Paper '  What I like about her poems are  ▪️First they are simple  ▪️Lucid but yet have the perfect amount of allegory which I prefer in poems. ▪️They are written in rhyme style . ▪️Heart complex affairs written in light relatable words. There are three parts in this book :  Self-love  Reflections  Some more  Wonder why the book is named Pebbles ?  According to the author :  " I think life is like the deep sea, which rests on the shore and pebbles are emotions accumulated over time."  And no doubt poems are pieces of work soaked in emotions. The self love section has poems which send message about being strong , trusting your own inner voice , owning yourself and moving forward.  Buying link :  https://amzn.to/3hXjMcS Self love is necessary we all know but sometimes we forg

It was relatable and yes at place it is giggle-worthy.  Later the section of poems is more focused on social issues like today's real face of democracy, freedom of speech and the problems faced by the explosive population growt
