I Too Had a Love Story - By Ravinder Singh

This was the first novel I read in my life! Although it was 2013 when I read it, but I still feel the warmth of their love!

I have always believed in the magic of love since my childhood, even when I didn’t know what love is. And this book came across my life when I had just entered adulthood. When you read such stories during college; your mind takes a shift in a certain direction.

The way this book is written is so easy and the flow is so natural that you get engrossed quickly.

It’s an amazing and heartbreaking love story of Ravin and Khushi who met through Shaadi.com and that’s how their story begun.

Khushi is an ideal girl and Ravin an ideal boy and how beautifully Ravinder Singh has described Khushi, every word said about her makes you imagine her appearance!

The book starts too simply, two strangers talking, long phone calls, discovering similarities, falling in love, meeting each other’s families and planning marriage. And because it feels so ordinary, you almost forget that you’re reading a tragedy!

How beautiful this story was and then a turn breaks the entire dream they both shared once!

“She died. I survived. Because I survived, I die every day.”

How would you survive if someone who once became your entire life now gone forever!

A must read if you are romance fan!

“Tere jaane ka asar kuch aisa hua mujh par, tujhe dhoondhte dhoondhte dhoondhte maine khud ko paa liya…”

AS: Happy Reading! 😀

Madhushala - By Harivansh Rai Bachchan

“Mitti ka tan, masti ka man, kshan-bhar jeevan — mera parichay.” I think most of us have heard of Madhushala since childhood — though many may not have actually read it. I remember watching Amitabh Bachchan recite its verses on award shows, reality shows, and even on KBC. A few years ago, I finally decided to pick up a copy for myself, and to my surprise, I realised it might be the longest poem I’ve ever read — or will ever read. A true gem of Indian literature, Madhushala has 135 verses, each one as thoughtful as the next. Recently, while looking for another book on my shelf, I came across it again, read through a few pages, and felt like sharing it here. Madhushala is one of the most celebrated works in Hindi poetry, written by the legendary Harivansh Rai Bachchan. While it speaks of wine, taverns, and cups, it is not about drinking in the literal sense. These are thoughtful metaphors used to reflect on life, emotions, struggles, and dreams. For Indian readers, Madhushala holds a spe...

The Rudest Book Ever - By Shwetabh Gangwar

He argues: Many people have kids not because they are ready, but because society tells them “that’s what you do,” or because they believe a baby will suddenly make life happy and perfect. He’s clear—bringing a child into the world just to fix your own problems or to fit in is unfair to the child. His main message is simple: a child isn’t your happiness button, it’s a huge responsibility that deserves serious thought. Shwetabh uses this example to show how people often make life’s biggest choices without really thinking. I am not a fan of any self-help books, but this one surprised me with its style, and I came to know later that the genre is self help book; otherwise I might not have picked up! The book feels like a wake-up call. Author’s blunt, direct way of writing grabs your attention. He talks on topics like rejection, self-worth, avoiding society’s traps, and the difference between chasing short-term happiness and building real, lasting contentment. Reading it feels like sitting w...

Awakening the Divine Feminine (The Pancha Prakriti Goddesses) – By Adi Krsna Rama

Lately, I have been listening to a lot of spiritual podcasts on YouTube, and spirituality as a topic has always fascinated me, since childhood. Everyone defines it differently and seeks something unique through it. Maybe this ongoing curiosity led me to this book. Interestingly, this is the only book I have ever bought without any recommendation; no reviews, no prior knowledge, nothing. I just came across it while browsing books on Amazon and instantly felt attracted to it. Sometimes, energies guide you toward certain things, they speak to you, help you make choices—and this book was one of those moments. I am really glad I trusted that instinct. The book explores the divine feminine through goddesses and their energies—how each goddess resides within us, how we can awaken their energies, and how our personalities often resonate their traits. It beautifully reminds us that spirituality is everywhere—in everything we do and everything around us. All it takes is awareness and a willingne...
