This book is about Pippa, an A grade student who goes to solve a closed murder case. Andie Bell was murdered five years ago — by Sal Singh and everyone in Little Kilton knows that. But Pippa isn't so sure and chooses the case as the topic for her final-year project. She soon starts to uncover secrets.

This one was such a great crime thriller. (Its the first book of the trilogy)

The plot , as well as the character development . It was a long book and was worth it. Its definitely a page-turner and the twists and turns were shocking and exciting to read.

Characters I loved:

Pippa, Ravi(Sal's brother), Cara(her friend), her family, her dog Barney.

Opening part of the book:

Pip knew where they lived.

Everyone in Little Kilton knew where they lived.

Their home was like the town's own haunted house; people's footsteps quickened as they walked by and their words strangled and died in their throats. Shrieking children would gather on their walk home from school, daring one another to run up and touch the front gate.

But it wasn't haunted by ghosts, just three sad people trying to live their lives as before. A house not haunted by flickering lights or spectral falling chairs, but by dark spray-painted letters of Scum Family and stone-shattered windows.

Pip had always wondered why they didn't move. Not that they had to; they hadn't done anything wrong. But she didn't know how they lived like that.

"The Diary of a Young Girl" is a book about a young Jewish girl named Anne Frank who lived in the Netherlands during World War II. The book is actually Anne's diary, where she wrote about her experiences and thoughts while hiding with her family from the Nazis.

In 1942, Anne's sister Margot received a call-up notice to report to a Nazi "work camp," which was really a concentration camp. Fearing the worst, Anne's father, Otto Frank, prepared a secret hiding place in the building where he worked. The family, including Anne, her parents, and her sister, went into hiding on July 6, 1942.

For two years, they lived in a small attic space above the building, with another family, the Van Pels, and a dentist, Fritz Pfeffer. They had to be extremely quiet during the day to avoid detection by the Nazis and their collaborators.

Anne's diary chronicles her daily life in hiding, including her hopes, fears, and struggles. She writes about the cramped quarters, the lack of privacy, and the constant fear of being discovered. She also writes about her dreams, her love of writing, and her desire to become a famous author one day.

Through her diary, Anne shares her experiences with the reader, including the struggles of living in hiding, the importance of hope and courage, and the horrors of the Holocaust. Unfortunately, Anne's story ends tragically. The Nazis discovered the secret hiding place on August 4, 1944, and Anne, her family, and the others in hiding were arrested and sent to concentration camps. Anne died in the Bergen-Belsen camp in February 1945, just a few months before the camp was liberated by allies

Santiago set off on an adventure to Egypt, but along the way, he met various people who taught him valuable lessons. He learned about the importance of listening to his heart and trusting in the universe. He also fell in love with a woman named Fatima, who taught him about the power of love and intuition.

As Santiago continued his journey, he faced many challenges and obstacles. He was robbed and attacked, but he never gave up. He met an alchemist who taught him about the art of transforming lead into gold, which was a metaphor for spiritual transformation.

Finally, after many trials and tribulations, Santiago reached the pyramids, but he didn't find the treasure he was expecting. Instead, he discovered that the treasure was within him all along. He realized that his journey was not about finding physical treasure, but about discovering his own spiritual treasure and fulfilling his Personal Legend.

The Diary Of A Young Girl by Anne Frank is an intimate account of a Jewish teenager's life in hiding during World War II, revealing her thoughts and emotions. The Diary Of A Young Girl is the real diary of a teenage girl that begins on Anne’s 13th birthday (12 June 1942) when she gets a diary. It tells the story of her family who live in Frankfurt, Germany and suddenly have to go into hiding as a result of Hitler and the Nazi Party’s treatment of Jews in Europe during the second world war. They escape to Amsterdam where they go into hiding with other Jews. The diary ends suddenly on 1 August 1944.

There are many important messages in this book, but the most important message is that all people have the right to live in freedom.

I liked that Anne was a really happy and cheerful person even though she and her family were in an awful situation. Anne enjoyed writing and describing others. She was talkative and inquisitive and could be selfish. She was a typical teenage girl and she didn’t always understand how difficult life was for her mother and the other adults around her. She commented on the people who shared their hiding space. Sometimes this wasn’t very nice, but it shows how everybody’s life was challenging because they had to be quiet and not bring attention to themselves.

കാൻസർ വാർഡിലെ ചിരി (Laughter in the Cancer Ward) - Innocent 

# data[].attributes.body
This book is a memoir by Innocent (late actor) narrating his experiences while undergoing treatment for cancer.

The book was filled with themes of humour, sadness, hope and courage.

I think the book would be highly motivating to anybody suffering from a major illness (like cancer) and also for the family or — anyone to understand how to actually treat and behave with a patient.

Some parts were funny while some were thought provoking and emotional.

Some excerpts from the book:

പരേതൻ്റെ മുന്നിൽവെച്ച് പുരോഹിതൻ ചെയ്‌ത പ്രാർഥനയിൽ ഇത്തവണ എനിക്ക് എന്തോ ഒരു പന്തികേടുതോന്നി. ഞാൻ ആ വാചകങ്ങൾ ഒന്നുംകൂടി മനസ്സുകൊണ്ട് ഉരുവിട്ടു. പെട്ടെന്നാണ് കൺമുന്നിലേക്ക് സെബസ്റ്റ്യാനോസ് പുണ്യാളൻ്റെ കപ്പേള കടന്നുവന്നത്. ഞാനാ കപ്പേളയിലേക്ക് നോക്കി നന്നായി ഒന്ന് കൊഞ്ഞനം കാണിച്ചു. കപ്പേള കണ്ണിൽനിന്ന് മറയുന്നതുവരെ കൊഞ്ഞനംകാണിക്കൽ തുടർന്നു. ആലീസിന് ഒന്നും മനസ്സിലായില്ല. അവൾ അല്‌പം പരിഭ്രാന്തിയോടെ

ചോദിച്ചു:

'നിങ്ങൾഎന്തായീ കാണിക്കുന്നത് ?' ദൈവകോപത്തിന്റെ പേടി അവളുടെ വാക്കുകളിലും ഭാവങ്ങളിലുമുണ്ടായിരുന്നു.

ഞാൻ ആലീസിനോട് പറഞ്ഞു:

'നീ കേട്ടില്ലേ മരിച്ച വീട്ടിലെ പ്രാർഥന? എങ്ങിനെയാ അത് അവസാ നിക്കുന്നത്? 'ദൈവത്തിന് ഏറ്റവും ഇഷ്ടമുള്ളവരെ ദൈവം നേരത്ത വിളിക്കും' എന്ന്. എൻ്റെ പൊന്നാലീസേ, അല്ലെങ്കിത്തന്നെ എനിക്ക് കാൻസറാണ്. ഇനി ദൈവത്തിന് എന്നോട് ഇഷ്ടംകൂടുകയും കൂടിച്ചേർന്നാൽ എന്തായിരിക്കും അവസ്ഥ! നമ്മളോട് ദൈവത്തിന് കൊറച്ചു ദേഷ്യം കെടന്നോട്ടെ എന്ന് കരുതി ചെയ്തതാ.'

അതുകേട്ട് ആലീസ് എൻ്റെ കണ്ണിലേക്കുതന്നെ നോക്കിയിരുന്നു.

അല്പം കഴിഞ്ഞപ്പോ കൊച്ചുത്രേസ്യാപുണ്യാളത്തിയുടെ കപ്പേള വന്നു. അപ്പോൾ, എന്നെ അദ്ഭുതപ്പെടുത്തിക്കൊണ്ട് അതിനെ നോക്കി ആലീസും കൊഞ്ഞനംകുത്തുന്നു! അത് കണ്ടപ്പോൾ ഒരു കാര്യം എനിക്കു മനസ്സിലായി. പറുദീസയിൽ എന്തൊക്കെ കാത്തിരിക്കുന്നു എന്നു പറഞ്ഞാലും മനുഷ്യൻ മരണത്തെ പേടിക്കുന്നു, ഈ ഭൂമിയിലെ ജീവിതത്തെ സ്നേഹിക്കുന്നു.

Translation:

This time, I felt something wrong with the priest's prayer in front of the deceased. I repeated those words in my mind. Suddenly, the chapel of Saint Sebastianos came into view. I looked at the chapel and gave a good look. The chanting continued until the chapel was out of sight. Alice didn't understand anything. She asked with a little nervousness:

'What are you doing?' The fear of God's wrath was in her words and expressions.

I said to Alice:

'Haven't you heard the prayer in the house of the dead? How does it end? That 'God will call first those whom God loves best'. My dear Alice, I have cancer. Now what will happen if God likes me and joins me! I did it thinking that God would be a little angry with us.

'Hearing that, Alice looked into my eyes. After a little while, the chapel of Kochu Thresyapunyalithi came. Then, to my surprise, Alice looks at it and mocks! When I saw it, I realized one thing. No matter what awaits in paradise, man fears death and loves life on earth.

ഹൃദ്രോഗം വന്ന് എനിക്ക് സ്റ്റെന്റ്റ് ഇട്ട സമയം. എനിക്ക് നേരിയ പരിചയമുള്ള ഒരാൾ കാണാൻ വന്നു. അയാളും സ്റ്റെൻ്റ് ഇട്ടിട്ടുണ്ട്. സംസാരത്തിനിടെ അദ്ദേഹം ചോദിച്ചു:

'നിങ്ങളിട്ട സ്റ്റെന്റിന് എന്ത് ചെലവായി?'

'നിങ്ങളുടേതിന് എന്ത് ചെലവായി?' ഞാൻ ഒരു മറുചോദ്യം ചോദിച്ചു.

ഇരുപതിനായിരം രൂപ,' അയാൾ പറഞ്ഞു.

'എൻ്റേതിന് ഒരു ലക്ഷത്തി ഇരുപത്തയ്യായിരം,' ഞാൻ പറഞ്ഞു. അയാൾ അമ്പരന്നു. ഇത്രയും തുകയോ? അതായിരുന്നു അയാളുടെ അദ്ഭുതം. അപ്പോൾ ഞാൻ പറഞ്ഞു:

“അതേയ് ഞാൻ നമ്മടെ റോഡിലൂടെ ഒരുപാട് യാത്രചെയ്യുന്ന ആളാ. അപ്പം വാഹനാപകടം ഉണ്ടാവാനൊക്കെ ഒരുപാട് സാധ്യതയുണ്ട്. അപകടത്തിൽപ്പെട്ടാൽ ചിലപ്പോ എൻ്റെ ഹാർട്ട് പുറത്തു വരും. അത് കൊറേനേരം അങ്ങിനെ റോഡിൽ കിടക്കും. ഒരുപാട് പേര് വന്ന് നോക്കി നില്ക്കും. അക്കൂട്ടത്തിൽ ചെലപ്പോ ഡോക്ടർമാരുമുണ്ടാകും. അപ്പൊ അവര് കാണും ഇരുപതിനായിരം രൂപ കൊടുത്ത് ഞാൻ വാങ്ങിയിട്ട സ്റ്റെന്റ്റ്. അപ്പോ അവര് തമ്മീത്തമ്മിൽപ്പറയും, "അയ്യേ, ഇയാള് വല്യ നടനായിര്ന്നില്ലേ? അമ്മേടെ പ്രസിഡണ്ടുമായിരുന്നൂത്രേ. എന്നിട്ട് ഇര്പതി നായിരം രൂപേടെ സ്റ്റെൻ്റാ വാങ്ങിയിട്ടിരിക്കുന്നത്. കഷ്ടം.' അത് എന്റെ മകന് നാണക്കേടാണ്. അതോണ്ട് ഞാൻ നല്ല പൈസേടെ ഒന്ന് തന്നെ വാങ്ങിയിട്ടു.'

അത് കേട്ട് അയാൾ എൻ്റെ മുഖത്തേക്ക് തന്നെ കുറെ നേരം നോക്കിയിരുന്നു. ആ നോട്ടത്തിൽ എന്നോടുള്ള ചെറിയ ബഹുമാനമുണ്ടോ എന്ന് എനിക്ക് തോന്നി. മരിക്കാൻ കിടക്കുമ്പോഴും പത്രാസ് കൈവിടാൻ മനുഷ്യൻ ഒരുക്കമല്ല.

Translation :

The time I had a heart attack and a stent. A person I barely knew came to see me. He also has a stent. During the talk he asked:

'How much did your stent cost?'

'What did yours cost?' I asked a counter question.

Twenty thousand rupees,' he said.

'One hundred and twenty-five thousand for me,' I said.

He was surprised. This much amount? That was his surprise.

Then I said:

“Yes, I am a person who travels a lot on the road. It is very likely to have a car accident. My heart may come out while an accident. It will lie on the road for a long time. Many people will come and watch.Doctors may be among them. Then they will see the stent I bought for twenty thousand rupees. Then they would say among them, "Oh, wasn't he a great actor? He was the president of the Amma(association). And he bought a stent for twenty thousand rupees. Too bad." It's a shame for my son, so I bought a costly one for myself.'

Hearing that, he looked at my face for a long time. I felt that there was little respect for me in that look. Man is not ready to give up ostentation even when he is about to die.

The Diary Of A Young Girl" by Anne Frank is not a mere teenage girl's diary entry, but is way more deep than that. This book is the personal account of the author, Anne Frank, maintained by her during her hiding in the 'secret annex' at the time of World War II. It will not be right to perceive it as an account of childish rambles and whines, but rather it is a wonderful literary piece, depicting the beauty and significant potential of the human mind. As you turn through the pages of this book, you get to read about the author's opinions, thoughts and ideas on various subjects including matters of war, religion, philosophy, human relationships and desires etc, which are truly fascinating. The readers also get an idea about the instability and fragility in a teenager's life which is quite relatable. Anne has an interesting personality and perspective towards life and the way she keeps an understanding of herself and everyone around her is intriguing. She is a courageous young lady who aspires to be a writer or a journalist on growing up and dwells on various modern-day ideas. It is absolutely enchanting to see how a girl so young has her own opinions on great topics such as world politics and how her creativity and powerful imagination are beautifully described in her own words.

The Fault in Our Stars is a fabulous book about a young teenage girl who has been diagnosed with lung cancer and who attends a cancer support group.

Hazel grace Lancaster, the main character is 16 and she is quite reluctant to go to the support group, but she soon realizes that it was a good idea. Hazel meets a young boy named Augustus Waters. He is portrayed as a very charming and witty personality. Augustus has had osteosarcoma, a rare form of bone cancer, where his lower part of one leg is removed and is replaced with a steel rod so that he can walk. Hazel and Augustus embark on a roller coaster ride of emotions, including love, sadness and romance. They travel to Amsterdam while searching for the author of their favorite book. The author of the book is peter van hauten and the book is called as an imperial affliction. While on their trip Augustus breaks some heartbreaking news to Hazel and both of their worlds fall apart around them.

This book actually feels like an experience which takes us and showcases us about the life of cancerous patients and how their parents and family feel about them .This book is an emotional rollercoaster and it makes us cry about how she has to struggle about her cancer. John green was able to put what people feel (when they're sad, scared, or sometimes just so hurt, whether it's physically or emotionally) into words

Their love story is showcased really beautifully as agustus falls in love with hazel.

The best thing about John Green’s writings is that he keeps his point in a very subtle but in a substantial way. They make a point strong enough to leave an impact. In this book he has explained the very meaning of life in a simple way. So I think John Green’s writing is very realistic rather than being surrealistic, he is able to find magic in the most ordinary simple things.

The only thing I kind of disliked about this book is that they don’t have a happily ever after and her boyfriend Augustus dies and she is left completely broken This book always gets me and makes me emotional. I would have enjoyed the book more if it had an happy ending where both hazel and Augustus live happily ever after... the author john green has done a great job of portraying hazels life so mesmerizingly that sometimes I wish to read this book first time again and experience the emotional rollercoaster again for the first time.

I really recommend reading this book.

Novel by Colleen McCullough
Honestly one of the best books I've ever read, and I can say that with confidence. This book is so much more than just the story of Ralph and Meggie's romance. It's about the way everyone and everything is connected, and how we knowingly sabotage ourselves as a sacrifice for something we love. The writing in this book is beautiful, in a way which sometimes seems objective and stoic (when it needs to), although very often can evoke an emotion in the reader, no matter the tone of the author or narrator. To see Meggie change throughout the course of this book, to see her life pan out and her suffering cast a cloud over her and her joy shine a light on her is amazing, and I was captivated by every word. Glad I found this laying around my house.

The Canterville Ghost is about an American family in the late 19th century that moves into Lord Canterville's large and old home. However, the large house is haunted by Canterville's ancestor who tries to frighten the family away, or even to death! But his family isn't to be scared away by a ghost, and is even intrigued by the historical mysteries it still carries. According to me, when I first read the title of the book I thought it might be a scary ghost story like others But when I actually read the book I found it intresting and not at all scary. I like the way the author Oscar pragmatically moulded the story into horror-comic. I basically like the ending of the story it was quite touching, before the death of Simon the ghost he has a friend who'll pray for his peace. This story is funny, imaginative and so easy to read I recommend young readers as well as adults to read this book at least once. Maybe some of us do not believe in ghosts but there is something around us which we can't see.

This book is about Jane McGill - a medical intern who feels she is in hell going through her first month of internship.

Sleepless nights during calls, drug-addict patients and her senior resident Alyssa Morgan (determined to make Jane work harder for her incompetence), are making it worse for her.

This book is a short comedic novel, focusing on the medical field, providing insight into the lives of people working and pursuing a medical career.

I listened to this as an audiobook and the narration was great.

I think it can be entertaining to anyone interested or working in the field, since it is written by a doctor.

It was interesting to know some of the things happening in the background of a hospital—the struggles of doctors and medical interns,etc.

Even though it was nice, the ending was too sudden, which made me feel that the story is incomplete. (There's a sequel, but the story has taken a turn)

Some parts were not justified, like the reason for Alyssa and Julia's (her roommate ) weird behaviour with Jane.

This book is a psychological thriller and is fast-paced.

This one is the first book from 'The Housemaid series' (includes 3 books)

I listened to this as an audiobook and I loved the narration.

The ending was somewhat predictable and the twist was not only at the end to wait and guess. Throughout the story, several surprises and twists came up.

The plot was great, though the character development was poor to say whether I like or hate some characters completely.

The tagline on the cover, 'From behind closed doors, she sees everything ' was irrelevant to the story.

Overall, this book was great even though some portions were quite unrealistic.

The way the children's emotions were expressed was what caught me,

All the three children who are already facing through harsh surviving conditions are met with a terrible situation.

The children's thinking and cooperation made me realise what all we could achieve by simply cooperating and calmly using our mind in a dire situations just like how they did. I didn't expect that the situation of the train about to have an accident and three little children trying to save the lives of people could be that overwhelming,it was until I read the perspective of the child 'Bobbie' and I pretty much felt her way of taking in situations. The book shows each side of a child's mind.

Simple yet complex,worth a read,

Thank you

The Warrior knows that he is free to choose his desires, and he makes these decisions with courage, detachment, and-sometimes with just a touch of madness.

My thought on this book

It was boring for me

A  boy meets a young woman on the beach. She tells him about a temple in the island nearby, and the sound of the bells of the temple. He tried his best to hear the sounds of bells. But he couldn't.
A fisherman there, tells him that the temple was drown in the sea due to an earthquake. He makes up his mind to become a fisherman, so that he can hear the sound of the bells while he's in the sea. Years later he grows up and meets the same women.

Despite meeting after so many years, nothing has changed in her.  She had a notebook in her hand.  It was handed to him.  He was asked to write the book.  The title of the book was Manual of the Warriors of Light.  She says everyone is a Warriors of light.  The author Paulo Coelho lists a number of advices and reasons that validate it.  Only those who like his writings will like this book as well.

The author of this book is Kelly Barnhill.

Kelly Barnhill is an American author of children's literature, fantasy, and science fiction. Her novel The Girl Who Drank the Moon was awarded the 2017 Newbery Medal. She was born on 7 December 1973 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States.

The main characters are in this book is Luna the witch named Xan and So much more

There is magic in starlight, of course. This is well known. Moonlight, however. That is a different story. Moonlight is magic. Ask anyone you like.

Every year the people of the Protectorate leave a baby as a sacrifice to the witch who lives in the forest. But the witch, Xan, is a kind one. She rescues the children and delivers them to welcoming families on the other side of the forest, nourishing the babies with starlight on the journey.

But one year, Xan accidentally feeds a baby moonlight instead of starlight, filling the ordinary child with extraordinary magic. Xan decides she must raise this girl, whom she calls Luna, as her own. As Luna's thirteenth birthday approaches, her magic begins to emerge - with dangerous and thrilling consequences...

My thought on this book

It's an inventive, loveable story that's completely original. I've never heard a fairy tale quite like it, and for that, I adore it. Amazing world-building. It's a beautiful combination of dystopia and fantasy.

Plenty of twists and turns to keep things interesting. The time skips surprisingly work. I usually hate them and find them confusing, but in this book it keeps the plot flowing.

I love all the characters and am rooting for them the whole time. Each one is unique and has a separate struggle in life. Xan in caring for the ones she loves. Luna in finding her identity. Fyrian, the "Perfectly Tiny Dragon," is so loveable! All the characters are intriguing in their own, special way.

Of course, there are flaws. For all its uniqueness, the plot can be confusing. The ending was a bit hard to read through. Slightly dull for a climax, yet still heartwarming.

Overall, I loved this story. Great read. I see how its simple writing could be dull for some people, but it's still descriptive and lets you visualize the world clearly. The mystery keeps you hooked. It's the kind of novel which you can go for when you want to quickly read something beautiful, magical yet interesting.

VERY INTERESTING BOOK.

I loved the book. The book is filled with adventures, it shows the power of having good friends who don't leave you in your bad times and teaches you not to interfere with natural processes like aging.I also found some chapters funny in this book, especially the part where Alfie and Aiden come up with an embarrassing idea to extinguish fire in their school. The book also teaches children not to give up.It has some inspiring quotes like "You are the strongest when you are at your weakest......". The book is well written and I came across many new words, while reading. The first 5 chapters in the book were a bit boring, so I didn't read the book for a few days,and kept it in my cupboard but later when I kept reading, I found that, it was one of the most interesting books,I had come across.

It’s strange to say that I’m disappointed in a auto/biography, but here we are, and to be fair, this is a failure of expectations more than a failure of the book itself, because it was published in 1903, and what I was curious about didn’t happen until well after.

This is very much a story in progress despite it being used to describe her as a whole. It’s a shame, because it seems like in penning this book, she inadvertently gave people permission to celebrate her ability to learn to communicate while ignoring the lifetime she spent using that voice to fight for peace and equality. It gives us a hero in her teacher Miss Sullivan, but doesn’t show the strength Keller had in being the sole breadwinner for the both of them as Miss Sullivan aged. But if nothing else, it is a story of overcoming almost insurmountable odds, and a reminder that just because we see the world one way today doesn’t mean we aren’t capable of evolving.

The time machine is a science fiction novel by H. G. Wells. Wells is generally credited with the popularization of the concept of time travel by using a vehicle that allows an operator to travel purposely and selectively forward or backwards in time. The term 'time machine 'coined by Wells, is now almost universally used to refer to such a vehicle.
