Attraction by Nikhil Patel

Attraction by Nikhil Patel | Book review

Book review:

Attraction or love is a bit difficult topic to decide. Many times women or girls fail to find the reason behind someone stalking them or they find someone attractive. In this book, one gets to know the basic difference between attraction and love. I appreciate the way the author poured light on decision-making at the correct timing and the consequences of not taking any stand.

The story follows the story of a young, beautiful and single child of her parents, Priya. She is given complete freedom to make her decisions and her parents struggle hard to feed her. But only taking good care is enough? Certainly not, there are so many other things that are essential for the parent-child relationship. Her journey of feeling attraction starts in 9th grade. Its frequency changes from Priyanshu, Chetan, Gaurang Sir, Dhruv and then finally she got married to Ketan.

Priya's parents expect the best for her and marry her to Ketan. But life is not full of roses. Neither everyone receives everything. So she gets love from her husband but a trivial family. Later on the urge, Ketan departs from his family and decides to live separately. They have a beautiful daughter but financially they are limited to sources. They live a simple life. It is intriguing to read about her haunting past, her traumas, her longing urge for sex or a reliable partner and a luxurious life. Will her decisions get her in any trouble? Will she ever repent or realise her deeds?

The author has meticulously woven a storyline depicting the flaws of not restricting children for their wrong deeds. He sheds light on the consequences of the wrong decisions of Priya and the right decisions of leaving Priya as a friend by Bhumika. The language and narrative are intriguing and evocative. I do not prefer the fact of only showing her negative or wrong decisions.

Overall, "Attraction" is a thought-provoking read. However, it highlights the negative impact of wrong decisions. It's a compelling read, do grab it!

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...

The Psychology of Marketing: How Marketers Trick Us Into Buying More by Harinder Singh Pelia | Book Review Marketing is such an in-depth concept that it always transitions according to consumer preferences. The extent to which marketers go to sell their products will blow our minds away, as money comes first rather than people's needs.

This relentless pursuit of profit can lead to practices that prioritise persuasive tactics over transparency, leaving consumers feeling manipulated rather than empowered. sales. How to make money might be in our control, but how money goes out of our pocket might not be, as psychology is in cohesion with marketing.
