BOOK REVIEW: The Diary of a Bookseller by Shaun Bythell

BOOK REVIEW: The Diary of a Bookseller by Shaun Bythell

Posted January 25, 2018 by @amanhimself in Book Reviews, Books, Reviews / 7 Comments

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.

BOOK REVIEW: Invoked – Hymns of War by Karan Bhatia

BOOK REVIEW: Invoked – Hymns of War by Karan Bhatia

Posted January 11, 2018 by @amanhimself in Book Reviews, Books, Reviews / 2 Comments

Pages: 200, Paperback Published: 2016 by Notion Press Invoked is the first book in the series of Hymns of War (a very thoughtful title, in my opinion) written by Karan Bhatia. The book is a horror thriller in the fiction genre and some of the scenes are dark and terrifying enough to give one goosebumps. The plot revolves around Krishna, a common man who is teacher at the university, and leads a simple life with his wife, daughter and his parents. An accident changes the fate of the whole family. These attacks starts like baby steps, small, as warnings but soon turn fatal and the life of Krishna becomes painful and intolerable. He then decides with the help of a […]

#BOOKSPOTLIGHT: The Assassinations – A Novel of 1984

#BOOKSPOTLIGHT: The Assassinations – A Novel of 1984

Posted January 4, 2018 by @amanhimself in Books, Spotlight/Giveaway / 0 Comments

Published: 2017 by Speaking Tiger Books Blurb To Deepa, Prem gave no hint of the churning inside him. In front of her he affected a cheery demeanour, indulging her in her plans for their honeymoon, which she kept revising. It was a welcome escape from the mayhem surrounding him. There were occasions where the pretence got to him and a voice rose inside, urging him to tell her everything. He silenced it. Deepa was a Hindu and would never understand. Until then, he had never thought of her as different.

BOOK REVIEW: Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari

BOOK REVIEW: Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari

Posted December 31, 2017 by @amanhimself in Book Reviews, Books, Reviews / 22 Comments

100,000 years ago, at least six human species inhabited the earth. Today there is just one. Us. Homo sapiens.  If you want to read at least one book in 2018, make sure you read Harari’s Sapiens. The book is recommend by many over the past few years on the Internet but few have talked about why read this book and in my opinion one of the best published work in the history of mankind. I know Harari’s work is famous and that might be a turn off for you but give me a chance in this review to let you convince to give it a shot in the coming year. Read this one book, even if you don’t have any reading […]

BOOK REVIEW: Quantum by Dean de Servienti

BOOK REVIEW: Quantum by Dean de Servienti

Posted December 27, 2017 by @amanhimself in Book Reviews, Books, Reviews / 2 Comments

Pages: 301, Kindle Edition Published: June 2017, translated version Cover Rating: 3/5 I love to find out how sci-fi novelist approach a story. The possibilities of storylines, if you are sci-fi writer, are endless but only researched sci-fi books thrive for a longer period of time and have an ability to entertain a reader. Similar is Dean de Servienti’s upcoming trilogy, Quantum.
