Wow! You read so amazing books (and in the list I saw so favourite ones! )
Did you ever try Joe Abercrombie? 🙂
Thanks 🙂 No I haven’t read him. How is he?
Well, he writes fantasy and his “The First Law” trilogy is really good. He has unique style and creates worlds, which are enchanting 🙂
Sounds interesting. I pick it up his book soon.
Hello Aman, I just read your review of my novel, ‘The Truth, the Whole Truth and Nothing but the Truth, So Help Me God’, on Amazon. Thank you for your wonderful review and feedback!!
I have noted your constructive comments regarding certain characters in my novel and will take them into consideration for my next literary venture. Happy reading and God bless!!
Manisha M. Wagh
Hi Manisha, thank you so much for visiting my blog.
I am glad you took it constructively. I am looking forward to your next work. Good luck! You have an excellent skill of story-telling 🙂
Hi Aman,
I was just wondering how you actually got to know about my book. Did someone recommend it or did you just happen to come across it on some online site?
I have been trying to increase the reader base but since its only available online right now, it hasn’t been so easy as many people prefer buying from bookstores and are sceptical about ordering online.
I hope you recommend it to your contacts, followers and fellow bloggers. Thanks, Manisha
Your publisher contacted me. Sure, I will be recommendinh it to suitable readers.
Ohk, thanks for that info.
I would appreciate it if you could elaborate more about the areas in my novel that I need to work on. Your expert comments will really be useful to me in future.
Btw, if I may ask, do you review as a profession or as a hobby? Your list is impressive!!🙏🤗
Regards,
Manisha
It started as a hobby and still is. Though I am putting efforts for it to be a part of my professional experience.
Sure, I’ll be happy to help. I think it will be better if we discuss it on the email. You can drop me a blank email or something on my id: amandeepmittal@live.com for that.
Thank you.
Yes, I too think that’s a much better idea. I will definitely drop you an email.
Thanks.
You are most welcome 🙂
Hello my friend –
Based on your current reviews and what I believe your path to be, I have a recommendation:
Peak Performance: Elevate Your Game, Avoid Burnout, and Thrive with the New Science of Success
The book basically distills many key principles which are worth noting for productivity and mental clarity. I think you will really like it, and I also believe the readers will love your review of it. It’s a fun read and provides a newer and condensed guideline for optimal ways of living.
Best of luck!
-Kaleb
Thank you so much Kaleb. I will definitely read this one. 😃
Thanks for the follow. I’m looking forward to reading a few of the books you’ve reviewed (or rereading).
You’re welcome. 😄
