Love & Curses

BLURB

When Amber meets Shardul, her heart starts doing somersaults and it seems as if her body has forgotten how to breathe. She has never been so strongly attracted to anyone before. But beneath the physical attraction, there is something else that she struggles with. Why does he seem so familiar when she is sure she has never met him before? And why has she suddenly started waking up each morning with tears running down her cheeks, haunted by the same dream every night?

Shardul has been waiting for Amber forever. But fate conspired to keep them apart. He could not forget what she could not remember. Now that he had finally found her, would she open her heart to love or would he lose her forever?

My Review:

Love and curses is a short romantic story with magic and mystery.

Love and curses is Sunita's debut novel and she has done a commendable job with this fast-paced story with the right amount of mystery and magic. Use of simple language, well-defined characters, and mention of local locales is an added advantage as it makes an instant connection to the reader.

I loved Sunita's narration style as she manages to hold the reader's curiosity and story's suspense till the very end.

Lovely and intriguing cover picture, simple use of language, reference of a local town makes an instant connection with any Mumbaikar; these are some of the plus points of the book.

Minus points, none, I would say as the story and writing is flawless and beautiful.

Love and curses is definitely a must read by all who believe in love and magic and even otherwise.

Book Review-Reshma Ranjan's Deceptive Baritone

Deceptive Baritone 
by Reshma Ranjan

BLURB

Sitara Menon is eager to meet the man for whom she has been carrying the torch since her teenage years. She hopes to rekindle their love and romance.

Giriraj Parapuram, one of the lead vocalists of the Benson Town Rock Band, considered music, their band and his friends his world. The last thing he wanted was to come face to face with the woman who had made him lose his faith in women and love.

Sitara organizes the concerts in Denver for the US tour of the Benson Town Rock Band, eager to meet Giri, mesmerized by his baritone voice, sweet memories and an unforgettable passion.

Giri is shocked to find the girl of his dreams changed into a woman who challenges him, infuriates and brings out his baser instincts.

Will their past force them apart yet again or will their desires bring them together? 

Will Sitara be able to rekindle their romance?

Will Giri be able to trust and love her again?

My Review:

A simple misunderstanding can ruin a relationship; be it between siblings or lovers. A small misunderstanding and lack of communication can create a great rift between the two individuals.

Deceptive Baritone is a fast-paced romance with a background of a music band. Sitara aka Tara and Giri are childhood sweethearts. But lack of communication, misunderstanding and other circumstances replace the love with hatred. But will they clear the air of misunderstanding and get back their love?

I liked the way Reshma has created the story plot with various layers and has no loose ends.

So if you like romance and want a quick dose of it with a hint of little mystery amongst the lovers one must read Deceptive Baritone by Reshma Ranjan.

My Honest Review:

Walking On The Path Of Indie Publishing is the second book of the toolkit series and is written by well-known Indie author and founder of the book club, Rubina Ramesh.

In this book, Rubina has explained the nitty-gritty of the marketing, before, during and after the release of your book.

The author has covered each and every aspect of marketing on social media sites and not to forget, the finer details and importance of editing, beta reading, and proofreading.

In other words, Rubina has covered each and every topic from the start (i.e. from writing) until the end (i.e. release of your book).

I really applaud Rubina, first for putting together the idea of toolkits and secondly for her writing and sharing her in-depth knowledge and her experiences, which will provide as a guiding light to all aspiring authors, who would otherwise be moving around like a headless chicken in this publishing world.


Walking On The Path Of Indie Publishing is a must buy and read by one and all current and budding writers who aspire to publish their works, as it has all the necessary details that one will need, right from editing to marketing to cover image designing.
