Some Disliked Books. (Book Review #11)
You might have observed how the list of ‘Books Read in 2015’ at the bottom of the page has increased. Right now, I have a lot of free time to read which has allowed me to read about 8 books in July alone. Amongst...
Dash & Lily’s Book of Dares. (Book Review #10)
Introduction: Dash & Lily’s Book of Dares is a story of two teenagers brought together by words. It’s an almost delightful story until 75 % of the part. I loved the idea of two bookish people getting together by communicating through a red moleskin...
We Were Liars. (Book Review #9)
Introduction: One does not simply read a book like ‘We Were Liars’ and forget about it. This book is vividly thrilling with splendid writing. What I loved most about it was the fact that it wasn’t dull. Often there were shifts in the story...
All the Bright Places. (Book Review #8)
Introduction: While I was checking out some young adult novels to read, this one kept popping up all the time. Finally, I looked it up and in its introduction was written, “‘The Fault in our Stars’ meets ‘Eleanor and Park”. That one sentence made...
When Only Love Remains. (Book Review #7)
Introduction: ‘When Only Love Remains’ is a love story by Durjoy Datta which gives the reader hope, patience and love. It’s in no way a typical love story as it crosses over the dead ends making it all the more interesting. If you...

Animal Farm. (Book Review #5)
Introduction: ‘Animal Farm’ by George Orwell is a story about a farm owned and managed by animals. It’s a mere 95 pages book which may come off as a simplistic story unless you read beyond it. As I was half way through it, I...
Gone Girl. (Book Review #4)
A couple of years ago, I read in the newspaper that ‘Gone Girl’ by Gillian Flynn is among the top 5 of the year. I had been meaning to read it ever since. Finally, I have read it and I’m not so pleased. Maybe...
‘If I Stay’ and ‘Where She Went’ (Book Review #2 #3)
You don’t just read books like ‘If I Stay’ and ‘Where She Went’ and get over them in a single day. Such books stay with you forever. They make you believe in love, tragedy and above all, in life. The story is so captivating...
Looking for Alaska. (Book Review #1)
After reading John Green’s two famous novels; ‘Looking for Alaska’ and ‘The Fault in our Stars’, there isn’t a smallest bit of doubt that I have become his fan i.e. a Nerdfighter. John Green is rich in literature and the way he portrays every...
