Book Review: Love beyond 22 Yards by Sourabh Mukherjee
Love beyond 22 Yards Author: Sourabh Mukherjee Publisher: Srishti Publishers and Distributors Rating: 3/5 Love knows no bounds; when it happens, it happens irrespective of caste, creed, status, race and religion. ‘Love beyond 22 Yards’ is a collection of short biographies of the gladiators with a bat. The connection between Bollywood and Cricket has had a timeless history and this book presents us with the love stories that brewed between the actors and the players (pun intended). Though we would have read or heard of most of the stories, yet there are certain aspects of the relationship that this book exposes well. Well-researched and well- crafted, ‘Love beyond 22 Yards’…

Book Review: For a Girl in a Star by Ratna Chandu
For a Girl in a Star Author: Ratna Chandu Publisher: Srishti Publishers Rating: 2.5/5 Life is unpredictable. It takes a lot of effort and will-power to muster courage and fight all odds and survive. Known for throwing storms at the most unexpected moments, life is that game in which it is mandatory for us to participate but winning is optional. ‘For a Girl in a Star’ is an exaggerated version of ‘Mujhse Dosti Karoge’. A clichéd plot, humdrum twists and turns, overemotional characters and bountiful grammatical errors are what define this novella. The plot revolves around Avinash, who is a braggart and blunt, and Sahas, who is diligent yet a…

Book Review: Super Couples by Prachi Garg
Super Couples Author: Prachi Garg Publisher: Srishti Publishers Rating: 3/5 With ‘Super Couples’, Srishti Publishers have neatly presented freshly brewed content- something different than the usual. It is always galvanizing to read astute stories because they have that element of hope that we all need all the time. With this book, the author has tried to project the strength of the bond shared by two completely different people. Marriage, be it arranged or love, is a sacred bond that connects two individuals spiritually and mentally. But what lies behind the façade of palmy relationship is the constant battle for adjustment and converting one’s differences into strengths. We often praise the…

Book Review: Inside the Heart of Hope by Rishabh Puri
Inside the Heart of Hope Author: Rishabh Puri Publisher: Srishti Publishers Rating: 3.5/5 “Where there is no vision, there is hope.” ― G. W. Carver The conflict between heart and mind often results in a no-win situation. Working complimentary to each other, these two often confuse and conspire against each other and lead to bad decisions. ‘In the Heart of Hope’ by Srishti Publishers is a light read that not only teaches the readers the importance of self-love but also ensures that the message sent out is vivid and clear. The story revolves around Rick, who is very ill. The disease starts to take its toll on the mind of…

Book Review: Fragrance of Rose by Chitrajit Paul
The Fragrance of Rose Author: Chitrajit Paul Publisher: Srishti Publishers Rating: 3/5 “Some people aren’t loyal to you…they are loyal to their need of you. Once their needs change, so does their loyalty.” Love is a mysterious emotion as it is ever evolving. But lust is transient. The thin line that distinguishes love from lust is indiscernible. ‘The Fragrance of Rose’ is about the turbulence faced by the protagonist in deciding between love, lust, and career. The plot of the story begins with the yearning to do better in life and later transforms into a war to salvage dignity. Read the complete review here. Buying Link: Amazon

Book Review: 37 + Grace Marks by Vishal Anand
37 + Grace Marks Author: Vishal Anand Publisher: Srishti Publishers Rating: 2.5/5 “The Illiterate of the 21st century won’t be those who can’t read and write but those who can’t learn, unlearn and relearn.” The traditional idea of being educated is to have glorious scores on the mark sheets, a good paying 9-5 job, and an ideal money-saving strategy. But with time, some perspectives have changed too. Now, people believe more in the fact that education is not learning of facts and figures but the training of the mind to think. “37+ Grace Marks” touches the same issue and narrates the story of Viraj, an engineering student, and his friends.…

Book Review: Finding Juliet by Toffee
Finding Juliet Author: Toffee Publisher: Srishti Publishers Rating: 3/5 The love during the 90s was simpler than it is today. We did not have to worry about the authenticity of the feelings and had our parents by our side to guide. Love of the Millennium has more hassles. People have lust and are avaricious rather than being smitten by the warmth of love. And when such is the case ‘Finding Juliet’ comes as a delight for the teenagers. ‘Finding Juliet’ is a mushy love tale, which revolves around the two main characters- Arjun and Anjali. The title of the book is fine but the plot is jaded. The cover page…

Book Review: Confused Bastards by Manav Vigg
Confused Bastards Author: Manav Vigg Publisher: Srishti Publishers and Distributors Rating: 3/5 TVF Play’s ‘The Pitchers’ was one of the most liked shows aired online. The first season ended last year and it ended on a confusing note as the end did not reveal the main idea of the startup the protagonists were opting for. ‘Confused Bastards’ sounds more like a sequel to this show. Three friends are fed up with their existing lifestyle and want a change. Jai, who appears to be the protagonist, has a bee in his bonnet; he wants to start a business of his own, a start-up.

Book Review: Colourful Notions- The Roadtrippers 1.0
Colourful Notions Author: Mohit Goyal Publisher: Srishti Publishers Rating: 3/5 It is rightly said that the world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page. The prowess to do something different is bestowed only upon a few, the rest follow the blind alleyway. In our field, where ‘Romance genre’ has become the new blind alleyway, something out of the box quenches our thirst for something fresh on the platter. And Mohit Goyal has successfully catered to the interest of the reader to a certain extent. Why may you ask? It is because ‘Colourful Notions’ is a book that offers an insight into the lives of…
