Of Love Deceit Pain And Self Realization (Book Review)

Book: Thank You Love
Author: Ayush Gupta
Publisher: Half Baked Beans

In this day and age, it is not uncommon to fall in and out of relationships. People get into relationship (on trial basis) if they feel things are not working out, they break up and get into a new relationship. It’s fine! It’s the norm today, majority of our younger population follow it. 

 However, what is unusual is one of the partners unable to get over the break up and move on in life. It is not very common to see somebody being unable to believe that his/her partner has moved on and so should the person as well.

This plot revolves around Rayan, who is madly and deeply in love with Akshita; however due to certain circumstances Akshita decides to break up this relationship and move on. 


Rayan is unable to accept it. Though he does nothing to ‘avenge’ this cheat, but works on himself to understand the real meaning of life.

The author Ayush, with the help of the protagonist has very subtly tried to explain that there is life beyond a girlfriend and a broken heart. He has elucidated that life is given to us to set and achieve our goals, live our dreams and love wholeheartedly without any qualms. 

The story covers all interesting aspects of life, most youngsters face these days  - love, pain and self realization. 

Although it’s bears a good advice for lovers to dwell in peace, the story lacks intensity and depth.

I received this book from Half Baked Beans against an honest and unbiased review.

My rating: 3 Stars

Of Romance And Suspense (Book Review)

Image Credit Book: The Royal Roommate (Kindle edition) Author: PG Van Life is unpredictable. We plan many things but not everything happens as planned. Infact, most of the times life has surprises in store for us. The key is to play along and play it well. This is what you will find the protagonist -Amy doing in this book. Accepting the twists and turns life throws at her and running along with the stride. This the first book of PG Van that I have had a chance to read, and hence I didn’t have any set expectations. Good!  The story is about Amy, a young intern with a law firm (oh that just doesn’t matter). Turns out her new roommate has been replaced by an irresistible, sexy, tall and handsome hunk - Sid (now that’s what is important, right). There begins a love and hate – push and pull kind of chemistry between the two. Needless to mention, lust and love (in that order) blooms in the room. Interestingly, Sid is a spy and Amy is his suspect. However, from suspe...
