small wins BIG SUCCESS : A handbook for exemplary success in post Covid19 Outbreak Era by Abhishek Ratna. This book cover is looking very simple but the inside content is really meaningful. This is just not some random motivation book which we read. In this book, I find the real way of getting the success which is setting up the mind. The important lines are mentioned in the Italic letters which make us easy to read and for the future reference too. In this book, the author gave the title for the content and each content has one story either a normal story or about the celebrity and in between or at the end of the story the ' small wins to look for ' will be given, which is basically a one or two line quotes but it matches the given story and very useful. To know what the author written in the small wins for please do read the book. I really loved this book, somehow it speaks the truth and really shows the real way for success. I felt so happy that I read this book and it re...

'Swipe Left' written by Himanshu Goel. It is a very short read. I find the title little innovative and little modern as well. The story is very, cute, little, simple, sweet and suspense, thriller etc. The story starts with the girl Naina who was using the latest trending dating app and in the app, she found the person then the started to chat so do the suspense of the story too. Since its a very small story with seventeen lines I can't say more. This is not a soft romantic story, this one is the thriller and after she knew him only the story will start its thill (so do read the book to know further). I complete this book with fifteen minutes. Each penny I spend on this book is worth it. I never thought how can a thriller with the suspense the author can give within these little pages, but the author nailed it. The langue is very simple to read. I like this book and I enjoy reading it.

Sunshine Town  written by Maniissh Aroraa . This book is specially crafted for Teenagers. Once I read this book I wanted to make my cousin try this book and this was his first book read.

'The Metro-Maniac Chronicles: Through the Eyes of an Obsessive-Compulsive Metro-Maniac' written by Jasveer Singh Dangi. When I choose this book I felt that the cover of this book is very simple and it will be very simple read but the book got something great into it. This book is mainly based on the Delhi Metro. The author narrated the story as his experience, his feelings and all which he got in his Metro travel. The author travels every day for 45 minutes in the Delhi metro and all his experiences were seen in this book. The author speaks about each and every detail which he found and experienced in Metro travel. The book mainly focuses on the different types of people and their attitude in a very funny and a humorous way. The author has explained all the detail about the metro journey in this simple book. My review: This book is very simple and easy to read. The book is small and can be read quickly and the language is too simple as well. While reading this book I felt like...

"Cross Connection" written by Preety Praveen. This book has a simple title and a sweet cover. Most of us think writing the love story is easy for an author but I personally feel it is tuff because making others to feel the same emotion as us with the words is not an easy work. In this book, the author nailed it. About the story: The story too had a cross connection in it. The main protagonists are Simar who is a Punjabi girl, Naveen a Kerala boy studying engineering. There were also many important characters as Inder, Roop, Harjeet, Ridhi. Simar is a normal Punjabi girl she completes her 12th and due to their parent's dream, she came to Salem for her BDS studies. She had many best friends but somehow they all left her one time and at last, she becomes close with her roommate Ridhi.  When Simar was doing her BDS she met a Naveen, with whom she always had a flight in the beginning but later the fight turns into love (as it justifies the title). She was happy a...

'Mahanbharata' written by NS RAVI. I wanted to try this book that is based on Indian mythology (I guessed before buying the book). If you watch closely the title is not Mahabharatha its 'Mahanbharata'. So if you are looking for the traditional epic Mahabharatha you are wrong because this one is a fictional modern story with the little Mahabharatha touch. There are two stories which were present in this book, both are fictional and said and presented at the same time (which I felt like the different attempt). In both the stories, there is one thing in common which is both are women's revenge story. In the first story, the revenge was narrated by the Bhishma and it happened in the epic and the women want to destroy the kingdom Hastinapura. In the second story, the character Badra takes revenge on the congress party. Both are the two different stories and in the second story the 1919 Muslim act, the Hindu Muslim issue and all...

A Myna Flies by Sidharth Kanattil. I like the title a unique title though. I like how the author created this story in such a way that we cannot assume the story outline or the end (in many books I do figure it out) of the book. By reading a few pages you can not get the full taste of the book and once you have tasted you can not leave the book unread in the middle. I really love this kind of writing from the debut writer. About the story:    The book is set up in an early East India company period.  The main characters are Amar Singh Chaudhry a wealthy landlord (who is staying in Shahjahanabad and family connection in Calcutta) his children Golu and Radha also, Rana the chief rifleman of Amar Chaudhry and his son Ratan Rana. All were staying and living together. There was also the tribal people who are living and many wants and tries to get their land. One day suddenly due to some mistake of Amar Chaudhry...

'Spies, Lies & Red Tape" written by Amit Bagaria.The tile and the cover are very apt for this book. I was recently introduced to this thriller/suspense genre (due to this lockdown) but I am very glad that I choose this genre and this book. This book made me forget me all the quarantine issue and I am at the edge of my seat while reading this book. I never thought that the book can give us thriller experience as watching the movie. About the story: This book is full of Indian politics, spies, military and fight hijack. The story starts as Indian PM Neelima Gupta was travelling from Islamabad to Delhi but her aircraft was missed from the radar signal and was Hijacked and the radar shows as the flight going towards south. Why her flight is hijacked? Who is behind the highjack? and to know more read the book My review: This book is wonderfully presented. I like how the author created the characters (I can relate it to some of the curre...

Sniper’s Debt written by Mainak Dhar. Since this book is about the flight hijack I wanted to try it and I gave this book a try. Yes, it is worth the try and for a few minutes after complete reading the book I have forgotten that where I was? While I am reading. The book is so interesting and worth the time it consumed and spend on reading it. About the story: The main protagonist of the story is Aaditya who is the ex paramilitary major.  Aaditya travels to Paris with him his wife Zoya and his son. The fate was not pleasant for them, the flight which they were travelling got hijacked. After they hijacked they landed the flight onto Afganistan and they were turned out to be Daesh.   When the hero tries to rescue he is getting the help of the sniper 'Aman' and along with him, the story moves on. Why they are hijacked? How this Aman joined in this rescue mission of Aaditya? What are their demands? Who has been captive as the hostage? Will the hero su...

Always With You: Short Romantic Read by Nivedita Vedurla this book is a short love story. We can finish this book soon like within an hour if we are fast reader without any distraction. I like the creativity of the author on the Dedication page. From the dedication to till the end, I like it a lot.  The main characters are Sahil, Tania and Smriti. Its a love story of course and the title is apt for this book and we all we know the reason for the title once we read this book. There is no number of characters or clumsy storyline. The simple and clear story even a beginner can find this book easy to read because this book is written on such a " clear like crystal". The one thing I like most is the ending it's not too filmy it is natural and acceptable. I have read many stories but this explains love as the way where we can accept as the existing reality. The beauty of this book is the whole love which a girl needs and also expects in her life from her partner is said...

Kids and Story Sharing is Caring: Book 2 Short Moral Story Illustrated for kids by Nivedita Vedurla. This book is full and full dedicated to kids. For the time of this quarantine, I bought this book for my sister kids. They love it. My sister son like the picture and after reading the story now he is giving a sharing a small part of his biscuits and chocolates to me. It becomes their bedtime story for the past three days. P.S Good gift option too. I would recommend this will be the best gift option for the toddlers and the school going kids because they can read and also can share and teach the story to their siblings so that there will be a bond between them along with the sharing moral.
