Book review: A Girl with five ties

Book review :

The book revolves around a protagonist Chloe, a Ph.D. student struggling to survive in a ruthless enviornment of academic bullying and exploitation.

Chloe is not a regular twenty five year old girl, she has secrets and a lot of them, the first secret being that she is dating two men at the same time and another being she hasn't eaten food properly from many years. Chloe's life is messy and she still has to get her PhD done. But with a dark past and a twisted and messy present, can Chloe's future be bright and happy?

"𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐈 𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐈 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐛𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐯𝐢𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐭 𝐟𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐩𝐨𝐞𝐦 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐬𝐨 𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐲 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐚 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐭 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐩𝐨𝐭. 𝐌𝐚𝐲𝐛𝐞 𝐈 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐝𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐬."
 

Her deepening crisis of mental and physical health and slowly uncover the traumas which lead her to develop a severe eating disorder. Can she overcome her inner demons and recover a healthy state of mind and body ? Will she find her right man?

The writing style is lucid and makes this book quite engaging to read. The way Chloe's character is written and we see the whole story from her pov, listening to her thoughts is just incredible and very effective. 

I loved reading this book. I would recommend this book to teenagers mostly because they are the ones that are in the process of growing up, and they are being exposed to the harsh cruelties of this book. And without proper guidance, they might be guided improperly. But through this book, I believe they will be able to see the dos and don'ts of life.

Happy Reading!

Taming the Turbulent Mind: Yogic Meditation and Mindfulness by Deekay

 Taming the Turbulent Mind: Yogic Meditation and Mindfulness for Combating Overthinking, Achieving Stress Relief, and Attaining Absolute Peace  Deekay | Book Review What is turbulence? Any thoughts, or have you ever tried to tame any animal? I remember watching circus shows organised once a year in the city's open area for all the locals to enjoy. There I used to cherish the person who tamed the elephants or the lion (if any). But today I thought of taming my mind. Every second our thoughts are randomly moving and giving us goosebumps. Nowadays people have so many threads of work looming in their minds that they feel like completing but fail to prioritise. To dive into a river is not easy. But only a few people have the calibre to do that. The same is true with diving in your mind. This practice needs calmness of mind and anxiety levels to be very low. I had heard about meditation and its techniques to apply in your daily routine, but when I stumbled upon this book, my myths w...
