Book review : Who wants to marry Kai Juicewalla?

 Book review :

This book is a delightful, inspiring , bit raw with a blend of humour and heart . A complete journey of adventures , a pathway to self discovery and self love. An engrossing tale that kept me hooked up from the start till the end and I finished it in two sittings. 

The book narrates a story of Parsi girl, Kai. Her  romantic escapades , wild search for her Prince Charming apart from the fact that her show Chai with Kai is doing exceptionally well. Her unconventional approach to relationships makes her unique in her own way. Her meticulously depiction of societal judgements and expectations makes the story entertaining with a sense of depth and authencity.

The author has well penned her unique approach in quite witty and hilarious manner that it depicts the misadventures,  her feisty explorations and much more. She has poured light on the fact that to face any issue first love yourself, accept your flaws and embrace your journey you have embarked.

Overall, this book is a hilarious and entertaining that makes you feel relatable, fresh and leave a lasting impression.

I Used to be Fun

 Synopsis:

“Insightful, entertaining, and satisfying. A deliciously dishy look at a typical American family behind closed doors.” ~ USA Today Bestseller Whitney Dineen

“A life-affirming emotional rollercoaster. Perfect for fans of Where’d You Go, Bernadette!” ~ USA Today Bestseller Kate O’Keeffe

 

A richly satisfying family dramedy for any woman who has asked, “Whose life is this?”

Jessica Holloway is miserable. As mom to two ungrateful, almost-grown children and wife to one appreciative-but-needy husband, she has all-but-abandoned the extraordinary—and extraordinarily fun—woman she used to be.

She may be smiling while she volunteers at the school’s dog wash fundraiser, but inside, she’s seething. Having traded her future as a high-powered attorney for motherhood nearly two decades ago, she’s now desperate to reconnect with the woman she once was.

Pushed to her breaking point, Jessica is secretly terrified at what she might do.

Go on strike permanently?

Take the dog and run away to Mexico?

Tell her mother-in-law what she really thinks of her?

Whatever it is, it’s going to be a disaster. Because this time, Jessica will stop at nothing to get her power back – no matter the cost.

Book review : I Knew

 Book review :

This book is a unique way of depicting person's struggle against her own close ones or nearby people to accept what she actually is. A jouney to find oneself in true domain rather than given by mistake. The book is also a commentary on the exploitation of marginalized sections of society exploited in the name of societal norms, family values, or religion. 

 It is the story of Farah, who was born in Saudi Arabia. It is the story of unspoken pain and scars. She was born and raised as a female. But eventually recognises that she isn't girl rather she is a boy. From her childhood, she always felt awkward and different from her sisters and friends.  She is not only shackled by her family but also ostracized by society and religious dogma.

The author has well penned the pain behind a person who is raised as a girl and his family gets to know about his actual sex and makes him operate without his consent. And after marriage she or he gets to know the reality which embarks him on a journey of self identification. Narration of the storyline is vividly done .

I liked reading this book . Overall, the book is a testament to Farahan's unwavering spirit and his refusal to give up, no matter how difficult the journey has been.

 

Book review : A Legacy of Poison and Lies

Book review :

This book is a solid fae fantasy romance, full of  grief, the angst, the self-loathing and yearning and longing. An intriguing storyline that keeps the reader hooked up from the start till the end.

The whole mystery of who Zylahs biological family is, what she is and is capable of intrigued me a lot . All the events that happened with  Zylah is obviously upset and blames herself for all the things that happened and she feels like everything bad that happens to her she deserves. She thinks she is a monster of the worst kind. In a very realistic way you can just see her dealing with this and the path she has to go.

 The author has well weaved the storyline and characters are well plotted. Some mysteries were unraveled, communication was better and explanation about bonds was nicely done. There were couple of things that came true when I read the first book, so I was not entirely surprised when they were revealed here. 

I liked reading this book and would recommend this to all fantasy book lovers. I am thankful to @katieandbreypa for providing me this book in return of an honest review.

Happy Reading!

Blitz : Grand Gesture

Synopsis:

She will grit her teeth and smile at the snobby and suspicious CFO if it means landing the contract. But she won’t put on a dress and definitely not heels.

Event planner Jane Beckett has big dreams for her small company and is bending over backward to accommodate demanding clients. Jane doesn’t have to like them. She doesn’t have to spend her free time with them. But she wants to tease the grumpy pencil-pushing executive who always seems to be in her way, muss up his hair and show him that there’s more to life than boardrooms and bottom lines. That is, when she doesn’t want to yell at him. Or punch him.

Liam Cross believes every woman has a hidden agenda, one that involves taking advantage of big hearted, clueless billionaires like his best friend and co-worker. He’s watching Jane and her sister to ensure that party-planning is all that’s going on. Even though she manages to steal his assistant, he likes what he sees in the smart-mouthed brunette, admires her stubborn independence, and wants to help her fledgling firm succeed despite his misapprehensions.

Paintballs, punches, and sparks fly when inflated egos and miscommunication threaten relationships between friends, family, and partners.
