NARASIMHA


Hey Book Lovers!!
It’s been a few days since I last posted a book review.
But, I am back with the review of one of the most beautiful books and that is.....

NARASIMHA
BY KEVIN MISSAL
PUBLISHED BY: HARPER COLLINS INDIA



BLURB:
Narasimha, once a brave soldier, has left the war and lies low as a physician in a village. But a familiar face from his past seeks his help to stop the tyranny of the blind usurper Andhaka. If Narasimha refuses, the world might just end. What will he do? And why did he leave the war in the first place? Prahlad, the interim king of Kashyapuri, is torn between the ideals of his unrighteous father and his love for Lord Vishnu. Whom will he choose? Hiranyakashyap, the ruler of the Asura Empire, wants to avenge the death of his wife. To do that, he must go through the Trials and get the ultimate weapon - the Brahmastra. But the Trials have sent so many others to their death. Can Hiranyakashyap survive? Welcome to the reimagining of the fourth Avatar of Lord Vishnu by bestselling author Kevin Missal.

MY REVIEW:
First of all, I congratulate Kevin for writing such a beautiful book.
Honestly, I was not a mythology fan but, Kevin changed my mind through this book.
Talking about the COVER, it is very attractive. I loved the detailing and truly justifies the book.
All the colours used and the anger shown in Narasimha’s face feels so real.
It is just so beautiful.
Anyways, I can go on and on about the cover, so let’s move on to the next parameter which is the.... TITLE.
It justifies the plot.
PLOT: The story is divided into lives of three protagonists namely, NARASIMHA (an avatar of Vishnu), PRAHLAD (a Vishnu Bhakt) and HIRANYAKASHYAP (an Asura King).

The story goes simultaneously which makes reading the book all the more interesting.
I don’t wish to give you all any spoilers, so yeah, read this beautiful book as soon as possible.
LANGUAGE: It is easy and reader- friendly. No grammatical mistakes or errors could be found so far.
RECOMMENDED FOR:
·        New readers
·        Mythology lovers
·        Believers of Gods
MY RATINGS: 5 OUT OF 5 STARS.
Waiting for the other two parts!!

A self love letter to you, from you, Sunshine :)

Hello Sunshine, How have you been doing these past few days? I know, this is a touché topic to talk about these days but I hope things will get better real soon and we’ll all be able to forget this new normal and will get back to being out older selves with a few changed and better habits that we learned throughout this pandemic. Sunshine, it is not always easy to be our best selves in all the situations but you’ve got to start from a certain point, right? I heard you’ve been thinking that you’re turning into an emotionless being? That you have no idea what you are feeling and why. Tell me something, didn’t you smile last night when your whole family was with you last night, enjoying dinner and watching TV while talking about your childhood memories they cherish till date? Didn’t you embrace the wind you felt on your face while riding your scooter? Didn’t it make you smile? Didn’t you cry when you thought about the fact that there might be a few years left for you to live wi...

"The part I left you with" by Rahul Saini

The book goes around two pivots over a significant period of time. This story spins around three characters and manages their view of life and of adoration. This story's method of managing love is very unique to that of the majority of the other Indian love stories. The arrangements with affection as an inclination, love as an overall experience, and dropping out of adoration by and large. Every one of the three characters here goes through an excursion to find their own self and personality over the span of the novel. School life is also explored and I can undoubtedly associate with it. What I noted and loved were those interesting email addresses. The part where Ratna's father and Ratna had a significant conversation about young ladies and what are they fit for filled my heart with joy. I enjoyed the part that Ratna's father played in this entire story and how much love he gives to her. The pieces of Ronit's journal made the book more fascinating to peruse. I understo...
