If corporate life looks like a fairyland with stable earnings and shiny bubbles moving in the air – Rishi Piparaiya has cleverly burst those bubbles and brought people to reality!

Taking a rather satirical take on the corporate life that takes the honest road to dealing with the crunching office politics, confusing situations and dealing with people of different motives - Job Be Damned is a light read with interesting use of words!

A day in the life by Anjum Hasan! Short Stories that take you places #BookReview


A Day in the Life By Anjum Hasan
Publisher: Penguin Random House

Genre: Fiction
Pages: 230
Rating: 3.5/5


How about a book that takes you through a day in the life of 14 different characters and their stories?

I have always loved short stories and actually enjoy reading them because it takes a very short time to read a story while being amazed at how the writer puts in so much in just a few pages. Besides, its easier to finish a short stories book than a one story book!

A Girl Like That by Tanaz Bhathena! Unflinching story of a fearless girl! | My Plate Review


A GIRL LIKE THAT by TANAZ BHATHENA
Publisher: Penguin Random House
ISBN: 978-0-143-44301-8         
Genre: Fiction
Pages: 378
Rating: 4/5

Difficult and amazing – These are the two words I would choose for A Girl Like That by Tanaz Bhathena!

I sat down to read this pretty debut novel with an amazing cover to lookout for a badass girl character which was described as a troublemaker ~ outspoken student. The girl by all means proves to be labeled and called as being a misfit in the society. Come to read of the first scene itself and you shall be intrigued. Tanaz Bhathena – You have beautifully opened the book with a scene where the two main characters of the book are dead and describing all about it!

“True terror isn’t being scared; it’s not having a choice on the matter”

It’s hard to swallow that I just read a John Green book, finished it and can’t really put my thoughts together as yet. After the smashing hit of the TFIOS there isn’t a doubt that John Green would move me with his words but taking on an intricate subject that questions your very being was something I had not expected. This book that started with a fan moment turned into a self-evaluation, questioning and mental awareness journey which has brought me a lot into terms with myself. Least to say I am nervous putting up my words together for this review.

Teenage Diaries: The days that were by Saurabh Sharma ~ a beautiful conversation with your teen age friend! #BookReview

Teenage Diaries: The Days that were by Saurabh Sharma
Publisher: Leadstart Publishing Pvt Ltd.
ISBN: 978-93-52017-26-3
Genre: Fiction
Pages: 319
Rating: 4/5

Childhood stories and memories hold a special place in our lives. And the most interesting phase of it is the Teen age. The conversation starters, the happy laughs and finding oneself doing weirdest of things through Teenage stories indeed makes us nostalgic. Therefore, I couldn’t put this book down without having a thorough sink into the world of teenage crushes, first kisses, exams, physical explorations and a little taste of the real world but not enough to stop the drama.
