<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b><u>Review:</u></b> Shamsuddin's Grave is a story told with lots of emotions and love. It is a story which deals with the plight of homeless people in the north east state of Assam. The story deals with people and their emotions and it is what caught my attention first which made me to read the book.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The story shows how caste and religion matters when it comes to extremely poor people and how are they used and abused by people with power in their hands. Shamsuddin is a person who has lost everything in floods and tries extremely hard to make ends meet. His only dream is to own a house and unite with his family. On the other hand, Latika is a woman with modern thoughts, battling her own setbacks. The two meet and a bond develops between them over time. A case of teenage rape victim comes across Latika and the NGO she works for and she is determined to solve the case and help the victim with Shamsuddin's help.</span></div>

<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The story feels real. It shows what is exactly happening in some interiors of our country. It depicts the sad state of affairs when it comes to homeless people. The two characters, Shamsuddin and Latika are poles apart when it comes to thinking and education, and they are nicely brought out. This contrasting characters is what made me hooked to the book. Also, I loved the ending. The simple narration hits hard at the right places and pinches you.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Although, the narration is good, it could have been tight. At times, I felt the lack of editing hamper a good narration and the story. Elimination of few typos, grammar and editing check could have helped the story, but it still is a wonderful one time read. I say one time because of the heaviness of the topic.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b><u>Overall:</u></b> Shamsuddin's Grave is a brave attempt by the author to put forth the plight of homeless people and the author succeeds at it. </span></div>

<div style="height: 450px; overflow: auto; padding: 5px; width: 650px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 48px;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">It was 2.00 a.m. in the morning and Kalapahar woke up to the cries of people. People didn’t know what was going on. There was no electricity and all they heard were the cries of women, children and men for help. Stampede of people running across the roads towards the uphill area shouting for help. </span></span><br />
<span style="line-height: 48px;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> Latika too woke up hearing the cries. She switched on her night lamp but there was no electricity. She stepped down from her bed and landed into knee deep water soaking her pyjamas. Terrified, she reached for the torch on the night table and switched it on. She was traumatized to find her room flooded. The water level almost reached her bed wetting the mattress. She didn’t waste time and waded through the water to check on her father’s room. It was similar situation there too, with the only difference that the old man was sound asleep due to medication. She woke him up and went to check the other rooms. </span></span><br />
<span style="line-height: 48px;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">It was similar sight all around. Dining chairs, gas cylinder, utensils, tables everything floating across the rooms. She turned off all the switches and whatever valuables she could lay her hand upon, she collected in a bag. Then she pulled a chair on top of her father’s bed and made the old man sit on it with the bag. She checked the water level outside through the glass window with the hope of evacuating the house. But it was worse and riskier to wander out with an old man in flood water at night. She knew she could not make it. </span></span><br />
<span style="line-height: 48px;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Help was unreachable as of now, as everyone was fending for themselves. She heard the neighbors crying for help but no one listened. Even the cell phone network was jammed. She knew she could not do anything but wait. At last she pulled a chair on the bed and sat down beside her father clenching his hands in hers. Both prayed eagerly for all this to be over. </span></span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Stuti loves being a mother to her triplets, but it can be a harrowing routine. She's even more submerged in the craziness when she takes them and her mom-in-law for a trip to Rajasthan, the land of the erstwhile Thar desert royals and their palaces. After the passing away of her husband, she feels she owes it to her mil to take her to her favourite holiday. In the Amber Palace, her reckless toddler rushes onto a modelling shoot. As she picks up her daughter who has tripped over a gorgeous zardozi sari, her gaze clashes with that of the man she'd hoped never to set eyes on again in her life. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Summerita Rhayne writes contemporary and historical romance with lots of emotional conflict. She first got published in 2013 and has won contests with prestigious publishers such as Harlequin and Harper Collins India. Her pet belief is, if the inspiration is strong enough, the story characters will find a way to make the writer pen them down, even when writing time is in short supply. When cerebrally confronted with the sizzling interaction of two Alpha characters, the only way to get peace is write their book!</span></div>

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<div style="height: 450px; overflow: auto; padding: 5px; width: 650px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 48px;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">It was 2.00 a.m. in the morning and Kalapahar woke up to the cries of people. People didn’t know what was going on. There was no electricity and all they heard were the cries of women, children and men for help. Stampede of people running across the roads towards the uphill area shouting for help. </span></span><br />
<span style="line-height: 48px;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> Latika too woke up hearing the cries. She switched on her night lamp but there was no electricity. She stepped down from her bed and landed into knee deep water soaking her pyjamas. Terrified, she reached for the torch on the night table and switched it on. She was traumatized to find her room flooded. The water level almost reached her bed wetting the mattress. She didn’t waste time and waded through the water to check on her father’s room. It was similar situation there too, with the only difference that the old man was sound asleep due to medication. She woke him up and went to check the other rooms. </span></span><br />
<span style="line-height: 48px;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">It was similar sight all around. Dining chairs, gas cylinder, utensils, tables everything floating across the rooms. She turned off all the switches and whatever valuables she could lay her hand upon, she collected in a bag. Then she pulled a chair on top of her father’s bed and made the old man sit on it with the bag. She checked the water level outside through the glass window with the hope of evacuating the house. But it was worse and riskier to wander out with an old man in flood water at night. She knew she could not make it. </span></span><br />
<span style="line-height: 48px;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Help was unreachable as of now, as everyone was fending for themselves. She heard the neighbors crying for help but no one listened. Even the cell phone network was jammed. She knew she could not do anything but wait. At last she pulled a chair on the bed and sat down beside her father clenching his hands in hers. Both prayed eagerly for all this to be over. </span></span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;">TEA!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;">Just the name itself is enough to bring back so many wonderful memories. And not to forget the lovely aroma that fills the nostrils as you bring the piping hot glass of tea near to the lips.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;">Tea is my constant support and a companion. That hot cup of tea is the witness to all my struggles, pains, agony and also a witness to all the happiness, joy and laughter.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;">Right from my school days, burning the midnight oil for the board exams till the present, Tea has seen me in my good and bad days. And so do those friends with whom I have had the pleasure to share my cup of tea with. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;">I would stretch my back, take a sip of the tea and get back to preparing myself for both, tenth and twelfth board exams. During those days, tea was my bread and butter, and probably it still is. The high that tea gives me, no other drink ever can.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;">When in college, I clearly remember that the tea at the corner of the road was much better than the tea at my college canteen. So, I along with my two friends would sip tea, talk about anything under the sun, but studies. We would talk about politics in general, our dreams, listen to songs and mingle around watching others pass by, holding the glass of tea in our hands. And occasionally, very occasionally talk about girls. Yes, we were like that. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;">But, this bunch got separated after the completion of our graduation as we embarked on different journeys. The days of my MBA was no different. The mornings were spent in the classroom and the afternoons in the canteen, sipping hot cups of <i>ginger</i> and <i>masala</i> tea. I clearly remember, that spilled tea on our important project note, those moments when we had our arguments on projects and joyances upon scoring good marks, which we celebrated first by having our cups of tea. "<i>Bore ho raha hain, chal chai peke aate hain</i>", used to be our staple line when we had nothing, yet everything to do during the post graduation.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;">Even today, sitting on my desk, glued to the computer screen, Tea still is the silent witness to all that is going on my mind. For that fresh idea to come flying across, for that important review meeting or for that matter, some important grapevine to be shared. There are numerous times when I along with my colleague would venture out towards that tea stall behind my office premises and simply enjoy the tea, in all silence. Sometimes, I along with my team would gang up at the canteen floor, holding the tea cups in our hand and chatting like we used to in our college days.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;">So here's raising a toast to all my dear friends, with our hands up in the air, holding that glass of tea, with all smiles and creating some good memories.</span></div>

</xml><![endif]--><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Dancing with Demons is a love story of a sportsman. What
kept me intrigued is the lovely book cover to start with and then the amazing
plot.
</span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The story is about Karan Pratap Singh who is touted to be
the next big thing in the boxing world. But, things <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">went</span> wrong during his biggest
match. He los<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">t</span> the match and even g<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">ot</span> a four year ban from
boxing. Here, the chemistry between the coach and the protégé is brilliantly
brought up and somewhere I could feel the pain of his coach, Jerry.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Sonia who has her past and Karan who has his demons to fight
are put together, as she turns up as a paying guest in his apartment. Life is
not easy for both of them as they somehow strive hard to earn a living and make
ends meet. Here, the love –hate relationship between them is very nicely
brought out and it is one of the factors that kept me turning pages. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Subsequently, both of them decide to face their demons and
set ahead in life with right foot forward. </span></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The plot is superbly etched and each and every character is
so nicely brought out that it had a lasting impression on me. I could easily
visualize everything right from the start and it shows how good the narration
and plot is. I could not find even a single dull moment in the book. The other interesting thi<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">ng</span> is that, the book
will soon be made into a motion picture.</span></span></span></div>

and all and especially to those who love reading romantic fiction.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Love is in the air again…this time it’s steamy, bold and manipulative!</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Gayatri and Viraj both are products of childhood trauma. Yet they were able to survive, one because of her shrewdness and the other because of his genius.

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">To Viraj, Gayatri, is the epitome of all that he despises, shallow, manipulative and the kind who uses her beauty as a weapon. <i>Or is she?<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><b>Excerpt from #RWWR</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<div style="height: 450px; line-height: 3em; overflow: auto; padding: 5px; width: 650px;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
‘I can do this, I can do this, I can...’ Gayatri wound her fingers tightly around her cellphone as she made her way to the cubbyhole Viraj called his office. <i>I did not expect a freaking hug, but a polite ‘how are you’ wouldn’t kill that man.</i> She rapped her knuckles on the door.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Viraj swung the door open. ‘What?’ His brows were furrowed and his lips, pursed.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Gayatri remembered what Nikhil had said to her once. <i>Dr Viraj owns and runs this lab. He was the only one you needed to impress!</i> ‘It’s my first day here!’ Gayatri could hear her voice shake. ‘Could you tell me<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;">...</span></span>’</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Gayatri scuttled out of Viraj’s way as he leaned out. ‘Find an empty room, do your work there. You are free to leave any time you want. You are free to come or to not come.’ The door shut on her face.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Flabbergasted, Gayatri kept staring at the door. <i>What just happened?</i> She cleared her throat. <i>I should not piss him off anymore.</i> ‘Thank you for this…this job.’ Her voice was as uncertain as the look on her face.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Viraj tugged the door open again. Gayatri flashed a smile at him and opened her mouth to speak but he stopped her short. ‘I don’t like talking. Find a room and stay there.’ He shut the door on her again.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<i>Asshole!</i> Gayatri fisted her hands and retreated. <i>I can do this! I am doing this! Bigger picture, please!</i> Gayatri paused and peeped inside the first lab that she stumbled upon. The place was quiet except for a low hum of machines. Gayatri pushed the doors open and walked inside the lab. It was empty. ‘Does anyone else work here besides the mad scientist?’ She leaned against one of the steel racks. The door flew open behind her. With a big grin she turned to greet the person coming in. ‘Hi! I<span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">—</span>’ she froze. It was the mad scientist with a bunch of papers in his hand.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Viraj noticed Gayatri at the same time. A familiar irritation flashed in his eyes. ‘Not this room. Not my lab! Find another room!’ He spoke with cool authority.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
‘I was just looking!’ Gayatri smoothed her ponytail trying to mask her nervousness. He had her in knots.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Giving an indifferent shrug, Viraj walked past her. Gayatri got a whiff of his aftershave; it smelled clean and crisp, like water with a twist of lemon. <i>At least he doesn’t stink like his manners! </i>Gayatri stood there quiet and confused.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
A loose paper slipped from Viraj’s hand and landed on the floor.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
‘You dropped some paper!’ Gayatri said, her voice friendly. <i><o:p></o:p></i></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
‘Ignore it. Like you, it is not going anywhere.’ Viraj pulled a portable stool and took a seat in front of an electronic panel fixed to a bigger panel.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Gayatri gritted her teeth and grinned with the ferocity of a wild animal that could pounce any moment.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Unknown to her, Viraj gave a similar smile except his was more like the wild animal that had pounced and won.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
‘I’ll go and find a room. Thank you!’ Swiveling on her heel, Gayatri headed for the door.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Something stopped her<span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">—</span>her father’s face and the realization that two weeks ago she had physically fought for herself, and now she had to fight again but with her mind instead of hands. <i>I have to win over Mr Madness. Maybe I could wear a beaker over my head and tattoo the periodic table on my arms! </i></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
‘If you are trying to open the door telepathically, let me be the first to tell you it is not working!’ </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Gayatri exhaled noisily. <i>Scathing and sarcastic, what more could a woman ask for?</i> Taking a few calming breaths, she slowly pivoted to face Viraj, specifically his back as he sat hunched fiddling with the panel in front of him.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
‘I’m sorry if I have offended you somehow. I really need this job. And also, I’m qualified for it. I can show you my degrees. I can really make a difference here.’</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Hearing Gayatri’s words and her apologetic tone, something melted inside Viraj...again. But to keep up appearances, he turned rude. ‘I’m busy!’ he barked.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
‘Please Mr Viraj, give me<span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">—</span>’ Just then, without warning, someone swung the door open. Gayatri wasn’t prepared for the push. ‘Ouch!’ She toppled. Her desperate hands grabbed the first thing in the vicinity<span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">—</span>a steel rack. The rack shuddered violently and some of its contents landed on the floor.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
‘What the hell!’ Viraj bellowed jumping to his feet.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Gayatri winced. A large electrical component had crashed into her hand ‘The door just opened, pushing me in,’ she said shaking her arm in pain.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Viraj glared at the door. He instantly lost the frown and his mouth eased at the ends. ‘Oh it’s you! Come inside!’</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<i>Huh, Hyde turns Jekyll!</i> Gayatri spun around.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
A timid, bespectacled, five-foot-nothing girl, her long hair in a tight braid, clad in a pastel-coloured salwaar kameez, stood at the door. Her skin was smooth and her hands kept tugging at the dupatta around her neck ‘Sorry to interrupt! Dr Kalra wanted to show you some tests he is about to run in lab 2.’ She then glanced at Gayatri. ‘I’m sorry if I hurt you. It was an accident.’</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Gayatri was about to speak but Viraj cut her off. ‘She’s fine. Let’s go!’</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Viraj went out with the girl, not even sparing a glance at Gayatri.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Astounded, Gayatri watched them leave.</div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<i>Urghh…the shit-faced scientist actually smiled and that too at </i>that<i> girl!</i> Gayatri kicked the steel rack. It shuddered again! <i>Shoot!</i> Before anything else would fall on her, Gayatri went after the scientist and the simpleton.</div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">All he had was three things: A dragon tattoo, a black
spectacle, a silver trinklet.</span></div>

was occupied and cramped for space. </span></div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">She was sitting on the bar stool, at the
bar, sipping her drink while her eyes kept scanning for two things. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">He entered the pub and stood silently at one of the corners,
his eyes scanning for the required details. Having a rich experience, he
quickly took a glance at the bar. He found the three things for what he was
looking for. With a smile, he took to the dance floor.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Convinced, he walked towards the bar at the bar stool and placed
a small gun at the back of her head.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Immediately, with a swift of her right hand, she injected
the vial on his right thigh before he could pull the trigger.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>

and Wife, as the assassin in her took over her soul. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">After almost six hours since she had sent the messages, the

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The flight departed from Heathrow airport. Once everyone had
settled in, reading, sleeping or watching movies, he quickly started working on
the plan. They had to act first.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">He gave a nod to his fellow partners to meet at the galley
for a quick last minute briefing. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">They dispersed off quickly, one towards business class, one
towards the economy class and the remaining one towards the tail. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">She occupied the front row seat, right in the </span>center<span style="font-family: inherit;">, from
where things can be captured easily. Amidst exchange of cheek kissing, jealous
smiles and attitude throwing celebs, she stood out as a famous fashion
designer. </span></span></div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: inherit;">The lights faded off and all the focus was on the show. One
by one, the models burned the floor with their stunning looks, showcasing the
spring summer collection. It was time for the showstopper to showcase the
design created by the front row occupant designer. The model came out with a
thunderous round of applause and a couple of steps later, disaster occurred- Wardrobe
Malfunction.</span></div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: inherit;">Both of them were dancing to the choreographer’s steps.
Suddenly, her eyes widened which was not captured on the screen. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: inherit;">A thunderous roar followed the claps, as the director
screamed ‘cut’.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: inherit;">Both continued looking into each other’s eyes as if
something was brewing between them. The crew members, the director and each and
everyone present of the set was in a bit of a puzzle as there was no news of
the two ‘going on’ in the market. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: inherit;">Suddenly she pushed him a little away from her, lifted her
right hand and swinged it as fast she could to land right between his legs. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: inherit;">He got a stinging message then and there, ‘Not to take undue
advantage’.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><u>Review:</u></b> Poems are a way to express the inner most feelings and bring out those feelings and emotions like an aroma of a freshly brewed coffee. In the book 'Aerogramme and other Poems', the author Nivedita N, has brought out such feelings and emotions through some wonderful poems. The feeling after reading the poems stays for a time and this shows how the choice of words and writing has an affect on the reader. Poems such as 'We Never Knew' and 'The Refugee' made me nostalgic, remembering the old days whereas 'Two Cane Chairs' and 'Aerogramme' hit me hard. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><u>Overall:</u></b> I would recommend Aerogramme and other Poems to each and every aspiring poet and also readers in general. This breezy poetry book will have a lingering effect once you have finished reading it.</span></div>

<span style="color: #444444;"><br /></span>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;">Half year is still left for the 2016 to come to an end and the first half has just gone by. Over the years of my blogging journey, I have never used it as a means to do some rant over any subject, but for the first time I feel compelled to do so. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;">Many of us go through life's trials and tribulations, setbacks and try working on them and bring lives back to normalcy, back to how it used to be. My life is going through something of that sort. Not many people know about it, apart from the close few. For past few years things have been not so good, not as I would have wished for, but it is. This has given a rise to many pent up emotions in me, which at times becomes difficult for me to express, to share. Hence, I am writing it through this poem, expressing about a few beautiful moments which I seek and cherish for life. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;">Through this ongoing period of distress, I have come to know a lot more about relationships, values, trust and lot more on how people's behaviour change in times of distress. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444;">So here is a poem which I have penned with a heavy heart and a small thank you to the Almighty for bringing the little bundle of happiness in my life.</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">

</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #444444;">As I worry to sleep</span></div>
</div>

<span style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #444444;">But one moment devoted to playing with the kiddo</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #444444;">And life is worth living for the happiness</span></div>
</div>

<span style="color: #444444;">The funny antics of mine </span></div>

<b>Review-</b> We all have some ideal characteristics that define us. It is these characteristics that take us long in this journey of life. But, there comes a time when our ideals, our characteristic is put to test by the life's various challenges and situations. It is our behaviour during the distressed time, that truly define us. This behaviour stems from the ideal characteristics that define us. The book 'Human Being' details those very characteristics in present life situations.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85098); font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 23.8px; margin-bottom: 1.6em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline; word-break: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">
So characteristics such as 'Acceptance', 'Boastful', 'Insouciant', 'Nonjudgmental', 'Quaint' and many more which we at most times fail to exercise, the author brings them to limelight. The author uses short stories to explain the importance of such characteristics and in a way brings them to life which had been left far behind in this journey of life.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85098); font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 23.8px; margin-bottom: 1.6em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline; word-break: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">
The author rightly puts the need for being human not by words, but by character. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #a00015;"><span style="line-height: 23.8px;">Review- Got Me For Life is a collection of 26 short stories where the protagonist is a woman in each story. Women play an important part in our lives and the small things which they do rarely gets noticed. Along with that, her dreams, her aspirations, her wishes also gets suppressed in the male dominated society. However, the author through her stories has brought back the dreams, the aspirations, the wishes of thousand's of women. Stories such as Beauty With Purpose', 'Dreams', 'Half Past Thirty Five' Isn't It Ironic' and many others bring out the hidden pain and hidden wishes which dwells within a woman.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #a00015;"><span style="line-height: 23.8px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #a00015;"><span style="line-height: 23.8px;">While reading the book, it felt as if the author has lived through some of the situations, if not all while penning the stories. Or as it is said on the jacket, 'dont be surprised if you see someone you know in there'. The stories took me through the realities of life and the way we as human beings mold ourselves accordingly. Some of the stories are so simple yet hard hitting whereas some of the stories will make you think.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #a00015;"><span style="line-height: 23.8px;">Overall: I enjoyed reading the book 'Got Me For Life' for the wonderful stories which it has in store. I would recommend this book to each and everyone who loves reading.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">It is up to Pradyumna to try and reverse the dire prediction. To journey into terrifying realms, confront Yama and Shiva, and to vanquish the Kali demon. In order to do so, he must shed all that holds a mortal back—his arrogance, his fears, his baser instincts… He must lead his people out of the swirling vortex of greed, disease and misery. And there is one powerful weapon still…the secret surrounding Pradyumna’s origin. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b><u>Review:</u></b> I choose to pick up this book after finding the blurb interesting and different from some of the books that I have come across. Initially, the story hold me through, as I simply kept on turning the pages with more eagerness to what will happen next. To start with, I found the story intriguing as I was eager to know what the story will lead to. And finally, I came to know the story is about reincarnation, life cycles, chakra and all things which most of us do not believe into.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I decided to give it a read at one go. I found the first person narration helping me to understand better from each and everyone's perspective about the story, about the life of Ananya and what is it that is troubling her so much. After flipping the pages, the author lets us to the another world, the world of astrology, chakra etc. The author tells us that there are some things, some solutions to inner problems which only can be cured with the help of occult sciences. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">To some extent, the author has done a fair job in explaining it to the readers. I went with the flow, as the narration style and the plot kept me hooked. I felt that a thorough research has been done on this subject. But, somewhere it became an information overdose for me. I felt it too repetitive to my understanding with respect to the story. But, that is fine as long as the book kept me entertained.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I did not find any proof reading errors as such and the writing style is pretty simple for everyone to understand the story.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b><u>Overall:</u></b> I would suggest to pick 'Ananya- A Journey Towards Light' for it brings to the table a fresh story told in a different perspective. So grab your copy now!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><b>Inderjit Kaur</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Inderjit Kaur is an author, motivator with a powerful voice of spreading positive words through her writings. A highly influential blogger and inspirational guide who with her tag line ‘Keep smiling, keep shining’, has brewed up with the original concept of living through her books of A living series.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><u style="font-weight: bold;">Review:</u> There are plenty of self help books in the market that helps us in various topics but there are only a few that helps in bringing positivity in our lives and that too with some lovely stories to start with. The book is divided into 2 parts; Part A: Rainbow and Part B: Contrast and Hues. What amazes me is the author's capability to bring positivity, motivation and colours together to explain things that can help us to stay positive when the chips are down. </span><br />
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The author chooses the colours of rainbow to bring to us seven wonderful stories with a dash of hope and positive outlook towards life. Along with that, the stories have an undercurrent of plenty of emotions with fizz that are waiting to spilled out, just as the reader starts reading the book. </span><br />
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The Part B can be summed up as an ultimate guide to look up to when you are in search of some motivation and positivity in life. I started reading quickly but then decided to go slow, absorb what the author has to say, and only when I am sure that I have understood it correctly and brought some things into practice, I started reading further. Along with motivation and loads of positivity, the Part B also teaches us things to do, to stay committed and focused on the goals.</span><br />
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">So what I liked in the book is:</span><br />
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">1) Giving hope to the readers that no situation will stay the same. Things will take a turn for the good. So all you have to do is stay afloat and wait to see the light at the end of the tunnel.</span><br />
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">2) The way the author has put across all that she had to say by comparing the colours of rainbow to stay optimistic and positive, along with a mini guide on staying motivated is commendable.</span><br />
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">3) Using some simple stories that speak about strength, positive outlook and having a lovely quote at the end is what I could easily connect with.</span><br />
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The only thing that some may not like is that there is way too much of positivity and motivation throughout the book. So, my advice will be to read slowly, imbibe what the author has to say and then move forward.</span><br />
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Also, I did find some proof reading errors but that in no way takes away the charm of reading this lovely self help book.</span><br />
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b><u>Overall:</u></b> I liked reading this book and will come back time and again to help me stay motivated in some difficult situations and trying times.</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Hey! I’m Zayaan Khan—Zai to my friends. I have two younger
sisters and a mother, and we live in London. I’ve come to Carmel-by-the-Sea to
be with Nirvaan and also to finish my dissertation in Islamic studies.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span style="font-family: inherit;">You’re a nerd, huh. Then,
this question is perfect for you: If you could do something dangerous just once
with no risk, what would you do?<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Zai: Nirvaan and I have pretty much covered all the risky
and dangerous things men can do. As of this moment, I’d try any risky
experimental medical procedure on Nirvaan to rid his head of tumors once and
for all.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span style="font-family: inherit;">What’s the biggest
lie you told in childhood?<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Zai: That I love my brother. That he was redeemable in
Allah’s eyes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<b><span style="font-family: inherit;">Which of your

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Zai: My eight-times great grandfather who was a Sufi saint.
I’d love to meet him and discuss philosophy.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span style="font-family: inherit;">Is it more essential
to develop beliefs or gain knowledge?<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Zai: Gain knowledge, of course. Belief without knowledge is
a waste and an error. Knowledge is reason. Belief can be unreasonable.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Zai: My—our—fifteenth birthday party. It was at Dandi Beach
back home in Gujarat. It’s where we—Nirvaan and I—met Simi. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b><u>Review:</u></b> I am reading Sumana Khan for the first time and I was left spell bound after reading Encounters - Someone's Always Waiting. There are very few authors which you read for the first time and fall in love with the writings and Sumana Khan is one such author. </span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The book is a collection of five different short stories revolving around the themes of fantasy and paranormal themes and each one of them are unique in their own ways. Everything right from the stories, the characterization, the narrative and the climax with superb twists, left me spellbound. </span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The author has narrated the story from the first person perspective which has provided that edge in all the stories. I, for once felt as if, I, myself am narrating the story and floating through the various characters mentioned in the stories.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">All the five stories somewhere has managed to touch my emotions and that shows how wonderful the stories are. 'First Love' left me enthralled, 'The Storyteller' gave me goosebumps, 'Reminiscence' and 'Happiness Clinic' filled me with lots of emotions which did not subside easily and finally 'Best Friends' made me feel happy. Usually the readers tend to forget the story but with Encounters it is different as I simply cannot forget the stories, They are so nicely written. Kudos to the author for that.</span></div>

<br />
Sumana was born and raised in Bengaluru, Karnataka, where she went on to graduate with a BSc in Electronics, much to the surprise of her teachers, and relief of her parents. In what can only be described as a quirk of fate, she ended up as an IT consultant - a role she essayed for more than a decade. She then moved to the UK where she quit her job and pursued academic and literary interests. The result of this pursuit has been two Masters, one published book, quite a few manuscript drafts, and above all, being stone-broke perpetually.<br />
<br />
She currently lives in the UK with her husband and several books. </div>
