Review


Tum Se Mein Tak (an eternal journey) by Abha Jha is a beautifully crafted bilingual collection of poems and quotes, making this book count for a diverse audience.


Key Highlights:


  • The poems and quotes are warm hugs, embracing readers to soothe their pains and wounds.


  • From life lessons to reflections from the author's experiences, this book is a bundle of delight, offering a wholesome experience to the readers to cherish reading experience.


  • It is an annotation-worthy content. Readers who enjoy annotations will find it challenging to leave any page without annotations.


  • The poetry is not a mere recount of the author's life but a deep articulation that captures moments of joy, sorrow, love, and introspection. The quotes, scattered throughout, act as commentators that ground the reader in universal truths, offering wisdom and solace.


  • Readers will notice that the book is more than a collection of words, inviting them to connect with one's inner selves. It is more like an introduction journey of the author that will guide the readers in their lives with its powerful quotes and verses.


  • Whether you're looking for comfort, inspiration, reviving from a reading slump, or simply a moment of reflection, this book offers it all in a heartfelt and elevated manner.


  • Though for some readers the quotes and poems might feel too personal as they are from the author's personalised experiences.


Quotes I enjoyed:


  • Between "There is still time to fulfill my dreams and there is no time to fulfill my dreams," exists "Get up and get ready to do what is important now."


  • Chase is evading the experience of never having what one wants desperately.


The overall experience of reading this book is warm and pleasing. It will allow readers to soak in the author's experiences weaved as poems and quotes, reflecting on their lives. Precisely, this is a book that readers will return from time to time, each time finding new meaning in its pages.

Book Name: The Scratch and Sniff Chronicles Author: Hemangini Dutt Majumder Publisher: Olive Turtle (An imprint of Niyogi) Genre: Mystery  The Scratch and Sniff Chronicles by Hemangini Dutt Majumder is a humorous delight, mystery novel that blends Bengali tradition with a touch of Gothic literature. Review The story starts with the introduction of the protagonist, Ollie, where the author reveals how she got her name, Olympia Ghoshal Chatterjee. To begin with the life of Ollie, there is chaos, drama, an eerie atmosphere, ghostly appearances (not in real though), and the essence of the smelling sense that made her unique.

Book Review : Haadsaa

Book Name: Haadsaa Author: Vish Dhamija Publisher: Bloomsbury Genre: Mystery & Crime Fiction Haadsaa by Vish Dhamija is a novel that will make you question your guesses at every chapter you turn. It is a gripping yet complex murder mystery and crime fiction.   Review Anushka Khan, no, Anushka Anand, as she did not change her name after marriage, was brought to Max Hospital in Saket after she was found badly injured, as her head hit the mirror, crashing it down and leaving her with severe head injuries.

Book Name: My Jeans Fit Well & The Ice-Cream Didn’t Melt Author: Manali Desai Publisher: Ukiyoto Genre: Humour (Non-fiction) My Jeans Fit Well & The Ice-Cream Didn’t Melt by Manali Desai is a humorous treat to her life’s raw and unfiltered moments.   Review The book is a collection of 150+ moments and gestures from the author's life, reflecting glimpses of joy, happiness, the mundanity of her life, and little junctures that are often overlooked in the race of life. Each anecdote comes with a whimsical illustration depicting a real-life moment from the author's routine. Two things make this book stand out: the first is that readers can relate to many anecdotes, and the second is the simplicity with which each anecdote is written and portrayed with illustrations, featuring a communication bubble between the characters in the illustration and sometimes it’s just the author thinking out loud in those bubbles. However, there is one thing that can divert readers from the ...
