Posted November 26, 2017 by @amanhimself in Book Reviews, Books / 7 Comments

Pages: 624, Kindle Edition Published: 21st November 2017, by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Cover Rating: 5/5 (hint: something is in symmetry, see carefully) I get excited when I hear Tim Ferriss is going to release a new book. The guy knows what to write, or at least how to present information in terms of mere words. Last year, I spent 18 days on his Tools of Titans which came out in the month of December. I haven’t spent more than 15 days on Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace and War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy.

It is a collection where a reader has a glimpse of the writer’s beautiful imagination. The novel is not a traditional short story collection. I am surprised to find that out and really enjoyed this new form of collecting one’s writing.

BOOK REVIEW: Despite Stolen Dreams by Anita Krishan

Posted October 14, 2017 by @amanhimself in 5 Stars, Book Reviews, Books / 0 Comments

Pages: 304 Published: July 2017 by Fingerprint! Publishing Cover Rating: 5/5 Sometimes as a reader you know that you are going to like a book even when you are judging this statement just by looking at the cover and reading the blurb. My story with Despite Stolen Dreams written by Anita Krishan is similar. I loved the cover and tiny fantasies started appearing in my head as if to predict what was written inside these 300 pages.

Q. Hello and thank you for agreeing this interview and congratulations on your latest book, ‘Aryavir’. Tell me a little about yourself and your background? I’m an ex advertising person, so I think that explains a lot about my background! Advertising, especially when you spend 20 years in the profession, prepares you for a plethora of different activities, and I gravitated towards writing. Being a naval daughter, I grew up all over India and had varied experiences in different cities, including Moscow where I spent three years and learned to speak Russian.
