Who will cry when you die ? By Robin Sharma | Book Summary and Review

In this article im going to give you a short book summary One of the best self-help book I've ever read named               " Who Will Cry When You Die ? "                                             By Robin Sharma  I've always thought this particular genre as not-so-interesting, but I've never actually tried it before 😑....I'm definitely not prone to prejudice! Anyway, I really really liked this one. There are 101 chapters or as the blurb says "101 simple solutions to life's most complex problems". I agree! Its been a while since I read it but I find myself thinking about this book every now and then and subconsciously trying to follow what it says. I even try to wake up early. 😃 So it definitely impacted me. Lesson 36 is to read "Tuesdays With Morrie" so I'll be trying that one next. This book provides advice on how to be the best version of yourself and lead a full and generous life, and when you die your loved ones will cry n

#13 "THE SHADOWS" By Alex North | BOOK SUMMARY & REVIEW By A Book Monk

In this article im going to give you details about the book summary of  " THE SHADOWS " by ALEX NORTH   ⁣ SYNOPSIS:⁣ ⁣ Twenty-five years ago, Charlie Crabtree, a dark and sinister kid always lurking on the outside of the group of teenage friends, committed a shocking murder that lived on in dark corners of the internet and fascinated more than one copy cat killer. ⁣ Paul Adams remembers the case all too well, as Crabtree and his victims were Paul’s friends. Despite his efforts to put his dark past behind him, Paul is brought back to his hometown after his mother’s health has taken a turn for the worse. ⁣ It’s not long after arriving back in town before things start to go wrong.

#12 Shiva Trilogy part 3 "THE OATH OF VAYUPUTRAS" By Amish Tripathi | Summary and Review by A Book Monk

Shiva Trilogy part 3 " THE OATH OF VAYUPUTRAS " By Amish Tripathi    It becomes quite difficult to see each book as an individual piece of work when you have read the entire series. I honestly didn't know what I was signing up for when I began reading 'The Immortals of Meluha'. It was a trap worth falling in. If you're familiar with Hindu Mythology, you anticipate the next move Amish will make, being thoroughly surprised with each revelation. But even if you don't know the story beforehand, it makes for a good fantasy read. You feel invested so much so that the story becomes yours and the characters become people you know and cherish. There's a love story, there's action, there's a mystery, there's a hero and a heroine and the life they make for themselves, there's family, there's manipulation, there's power, there's good and there's evil. I really don't think you will be disappointed to immerse yourself in this stor

#11 SHIVA TRILOGY PART 2 "THE SECRET OF NAGAS " By Amish Tripathi | Summary and Review

SHIVA TRILOGY PART -2 " THE SECRETS OF THE NAGAS  " " It's not always about peace. Many times, it's about war." - Amish Tripathi. I always prefer mythology over any other genre. I know they are fictional but authors like Amish make them serious page turners. The Sun dynasty of Meluha easily defeated the Moon dynasty of Swadweep and became the ruler of Meluha. He was anointed as the Emperor of South India. But according to Dakshan's direction, Lord Shiva who tries to train the immoral lunar clans, the righteous and the moral life of the Sun Dwellers, recognizes that the Swadvipars are not evil and their way of life is different. Scholars of the Vasudeva tribe realize that his real mission to Neelakanta, who thought that evil had been slayed, was not to correct the lives of the Chandravamsis, but to find the right evil. Shiva, who thinks that his real target is the ugly Nagas who killed his brother Brihaspati in an attack on the Mandara mountain and tried

#8 "PURPLE HIBISCUS" by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie | Book Summary and Review

This time iam going to review one of the Best Book -   " PURPLE HIBISCUS "  by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie  • This may be an unpopular opinion, because like many, I really admire Adichie, I’ve posted about her many times and even chose her for my first ‘Wednesday’s Women’ highlight; she is tenacious yet graceful and I’ve loved everything she’s written..... I just didn’t love this one 😬. Have you read this? Is it just me!? • Adichie has set the bar for herself so high - this was her first novel published in 2003, and for me is another example of an author who we can see getting better and better throughout their career. • This is the story of a Nigerian family living under the firm hand of their father and his dominating, indoctrinating, abusive beliefs. It’s also a coming of age tale, told through the eyes of 15 year old Kambili, who is often unaware of the exact nature of the tragedies she’s exposing to the reader.                         PURPLE HIBISCUS This is an

#3 A BURNING - Megha Mujumdar | Book summary & Review

So worth the hype. " A BURNING " by Megha Majumdar is very political, very real. The tale is told through the lives of three characters - Jivan, a Muslim girl who dreams of becoming 'middle class' but lands up in jail because of a Facebook Post criticizing the government (ahem, rings a bell?); PT sir, whose adventures with a political party bring him ever so close to power; and Lovely - the true-spirited and honest aspiring actress who has to battle with the society on the account of being a transwoman.  The book picks up after the first few pages, and actually got me out of my reading slump after weeks! I enjoyed Megha Majumdar's writing style, she tells the story compellingly, without the use of jargon. I especially appreciate the way females have reclaimed all positions of power in this book - Sonali Khan is the popular actress who holds enough power to make people stars, Bimala Pal is the head of the political party, etc. Whenever the
