OMG!! this book is the best book if you want to dive into world of classics but you are scared of old English, this is one of the best creation of Modern English Literature. This book will help you to develop sympathy for both the protagonists and other characters, this book gave me roller coaster of emotions, and honestly this book can put you in sad phase.

I've always been somewhat critical of romance books, but this one is truly worth both time and money. It serves as a nice escape from reality.

Let me share what I appreciate about this book, which has made me enjoy the story:

1. There's no over-obsession with height differences. This aspect has been overused, and I find it refreshing that it's not a focal point here.

2. There's no obsession with the female lead being a fragile, …Read More

मुंशी प्रेमचंद एक आदर्शवादी थे, उन्होंने हमेशा अपने कार्यों के माध्यम से 20वीं सदी के भारतीय समाज की खामियों को उजागर करने का प्रयास किया।

यह कहानी अमृतराय नामक एक व्यक्ति की है जो एक सामाजिक कार्यकर्ता था और विधवा महिलाओं के लिए काम करना चाहता था, क्योंकि उस समय भारतीय समाज विधवा महिलाओं के साथ भेदभाव करता था और उन्हें अच्छा सम्मान नहीं देता था, और भले ही ब्रिटिश सरकार ने इस पर प्रतिबंध लगा दिया हो। लेकिन, उस समय सती प्रथा भ …Read More

"I’m unsure if I would recommend this drama to anyone. It’s very graphic and heart wrenching to read. But that's not a big problem as it can be helped by trigger warnings. The real issue is that it’s based on a true incident from 1982 in Santa Cruz, Bombay, and the real story is even more disturbing. Not recommending it feels like ignoring the reality, since this actually happened to someone, in front of many people who watc …Read More

I'm giving this book three stars cause I find this book bit boring, I'm not a type of person who always need ground breaking plot twist to keep going with a book, I'm okay with book with simple story-line but this book kinda bored me out, at some point I felt like not completing it, even though it's a very short one day book.

"Dead White Males" is a satirical play by David Williamson that critiques the traditional literary canon and the impact of political correctness on education. Set in a university context, the narrative follows a group of students and their professor, Grant Swain, as they grapple with the relevance of classic literature, particularly works by "dead white males" like Shakespeare.

The characters challenge Swain's views on litera …Read More

You can never go wrong with writer's like George Orwell, this is a dystopian novel, which revolves around a totalitarian government. This book is the brief description of everything Yeonmi Park tells about North Korea.

I don't know if its only me or others also feel that Murakami is witty sometime.

I love Watanabe. I guess he is actually an Ordinary guy and that what make him different from other's, but I think Midori was me at some part of my my life. I still have her somewhere in the darkness of my heart !!!

Best short classic to understand dynamics of William Shakespeare , even though the English is bit hard in comparison to what we read and speak now but this work is really 10/10 for the story telling and the use of references from other classic works , honestly for non English speakers this book can be bit hard but on the other hand it will also bring you close to the language when you try to find the meaning of words and phr …Read More

I can't even tell you how many times this book of 163 pages made me cry and tear up. I had literal breakdowns reading this book. This is the first Korean book I read, which I wanted to read for a very long time since I saw a lot of K-pop idols reading it, and now I know why this book enraged so many men's in Korea. Oh,  I'm sorry, MISOGYNISTIC MEN'S.
