BOOK REVIEW: Mountains to Manhattan by Pinakie Kansabanik

The stories that explore harsh realities always fascinate me. Mountains to Manhattan is a book about Tibetan immigrants to India after the invasion of Red Army. What more fascinated me about this book is that the author has narrated the whole story by opting the opposite gender. The plot revolves around a young, and smart Tenzin Lhamo who was labeled as a refugee before she was born. After the invasion of Red Army her mother, aunt and grandmother had to leave Tibet and settled in India. But did the Indian government did not grant them citizenships and there was a...

An Australian engineer, Jane Kelly, is on a verge of providing electricity in remote villages of central Punjab through installing solar panels. A ruthless landowner uses terrorism to frame her for...

It is sort of a skill plus lifestyle that you have to create, build around and live. Though after picking up this book, I can say, there are some inspiring moments mentioned in this book.

BOOK REVIEW: Based on Lies – It Begins by Debarshi Kanjilal

Based on Lies: It Begins is the first in a series of two novellas published in 2017.  The main element used in this novel is of psychological thriller following the life of Anuraag Sanyal, the protagonist of the novella.

The plot starts with the protagonist sitting in the middle of the night, suffering from insomnia writing in his notepad about the event of his past life. The storyline somewhat follows this pattern and a reader gets to see the Anuraag’s present too. He is having a troubled marriage  for...

BOOK REVIEW: The Diary of a Bookseller by Shaun Bythell

Pages: 315, Kindle Edition Published: September, 2017 by Profile Books Cover Rating: 5/5 I have always loved books about books or booksellers. I find booksellers are one heck of an interesting personalities and more, they get observe equally interesting ones. Interesting personality, a bookseller? Why? ‘Cause they read books that no one else reads or majority of people do not and sometimes they write about their observations of customers/bibliophiles in their shops. The whole concept is a bit funny too.
