Bouquet Of Emotions (Book Review)

Book: Love in the Time of WhatsApp

Author: Multiple

Publication: Juggernaut

Love in the Time of WhataApp by Juggernaut is a collection of 12 short stories on love and relationship in today’s time. It is amazing to see how 12 different thoughts come together to create something so simple, relatable yet edgy.

Every author has a different style to highlight the speck of life (or fantasy) they have chosen to.

Some of the stories are simple but focuses on how conventional perspective puts our minds into play – Love in the Time of WhatsApp, My Cousin Sahil, Rent a Husband, TTYL -Talk to you Later;

While others though appear to be simple, but leave the readers with appalling twist – iLove Story, Wi-Fi Love, Mrs. Good Luck;

Others shows the face of hypocrisy that is our reality today - The Girl on the Road;

Another set of stories offer a soft and subtle warmth to readers – Chrysanthemums in Springtime, Summer with Vijay, Leather Ball, Cosco Ball.

Overall the stories are to the point, not lagging at any point, and good comfort reads. So keep you phone aside and pick up this book 😊

My ratings: 4 out of 5.

I received a review copy of the book in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.

A Soul Stirring Journey! (Book Review)

Image Source Book: The Seeker Author: Karan Bajaj The climax of the book is just unexpected. Well that's not how you would expect me to begin a review, but it's simply not what I had anticipated. In fact with the twists and turns I actually had no idea how the book will end. Had completely given up all my presumptions. I'll be honest, first few pages were a little boring for me. Perhaps, because the beginning is slow or maybe because I thought this packing your stuff and going away is a 'very guy' thing. Alright, the fact is I was jealous of Max, that he could just walk away from his corporate life towards a different life...... However, I continued to read; I was curious to know how far does Max go in order to reach that state where he feels detached from the world yet one with every tiny bit of the universe. And boy what a journey that was! I enjoyed it :)

The Drowning: Dark and Distrubing

The Drowning , authored by Nidhi Upadhyay published by Penguin Random House , is a dark psychological thriller that subverts expectations. What starts as a seemingly straightforward story soon spirals into something far more sinister—so dark that it may not be for the faint-hearted. The story follows Viji, a grieving mother who loses her twins under mysterious circumstances. As she desperately searches for answers, she finds herself accused of causing the death of her friend’s toddler. Enter Inspector Kanika, the determined protagonist, who is not only investigating the case but also grappling with her own personal loss after losing her unborn. As the investigation unfolds, what seemed like a tragic accident takes a chilling turn, leading to an unexpected and unsettling conclusion.

A Gripping Mystery That Doesn't Fool Around (Book Review)

Image Source Book : Fool Me Once Author : Harlan Coben Publisher : Random House If I have to sum up the story, I would say it in a phrase (from a Bollywood song), 'shikari khud yahan shikar ho gaya'. I had lost the number of count I encountered twists in this tale. The story begins with the funeral of the protagonist Maya's husband, who was (or is) a rich businessman and one of the heirs to a wealthy and affluent family. His murder, witnessed by Maya alone, is supposedly an unthought-of act by random robbers; however we know that there has to be something more to this death (and the story). It’s all going fine, when one day Maya sees her dead husband in her house, with her daughter in the nanny cam. Now this gets her started (and me too) in search of the truth. In the process we come across plenty of elements that may not be connected to the murder mystery - family secrets, business secrets and Maya's past to name a few. Did I mention that abou...
