⭐ Review:

"Iron Man: Extremis" by Warren Ellis is a bold and modern reimagining of Tony Stark’s story, and one of the most influential Iron Man arcs in the Marvel Universe. Set in a post-9/11 world, the story dives deep into the ethics of technology, terrorism, and the consequences of human enhancement.

The plot revolves around a dangerous nanotech serum called Extremis, which falls into the wrong hands. Tony Stark is forced to confront both external threats and his own vulnerabilities, eventually using the Extremis technology on himself, fundamentally upgrading what it means to be Iron Man. This arc served as a major inspiration for the 2013 film Iron Man 3.

Warren Ellis brings a sharp, philosophical edge to the character, pushing Stark from a traditional superhero toward a transhumanist figure. Adi Granov's digital art is sleek and cinematic, perfectly fitting the tone and tech-heavy t

⭐ Review:

"Akbar and Birbal" by Amita Sarin is a delightful collection of timeless tales showcasing the wit, wisdom, and humor of Birbal, the clever courtier in Emperor Akbar's court. Designed for young readers, the stories are short, engaging, and filled with moral lessons delivered through clever plots and lighthearted banter.

Sarin does a great job simplifying the language without diluting the charm of the classic folk tales. The book captures the cultural richness of Mughal India and the legendary friendship between the emperor and his favorite advisor. The illustrations (in some editions) enhance the storytelling, making it even more appealing for children.

While it is primarily aimed at younger readers (ages 8–12), adults can also appreciate the wit and layered meanings in the anecdotes.

Book Review: Tenali Ramakrishna: The Birbal of the South

# data[].attributes.body
Author: C. L. L. Jayaprada

Genre: Historical Fiction / Folklore

Recommended Age: 8+

Review:

Tenali Ramakrishna: The Birbal of the South is a delightful collection of stories centered around the legendary poet, scholar, and jester Tenali Ramakrishna, who served in the court of King Krishnadevaraya of the Vijayanagara Empire. Known for his wit, intelligence, and quick problem-solving, Tenali Rama is often compared to Birbal, the famous advisor in Emperor Akbar’s court.

Author C. L. L. Jayaprada brings the folk tales of Tenali Ramakrishna to life with a lively narrative style that is both humorous and educational. The stories are written in simple, engaging language, making them perfect for young readers while still being enjoyable for adults. Each tale showcases Tenali's cleverness as he solves complex problems using humor and wisdom, often outsmarting greedy officials, arrogant scholars, or foreign visitors.

Jayaprada also weaves in cultural and historical context that adds depth to the storytelling without overwhelming younger readers. The vivid descriptions of life in the royal court, combined with Tenali’s antics, create a vibrant picture of South India during the 16th century.

What makes the book stand out is its moral undercurrent—each story subtly teaches values like honesty, clever thinking, humility, and justice, without sounding preachy. The book encourages readers to value intelligence and kindness over brute strength or status.

Overall, this book is a wonderful introduction to Indian folklore and history. It’s an excellent read for children, educators, and anyone interested in classic tales of wisdom and humor from India’s rich storytelling tradition.

Rating: ★★★★☆ (4.5/5)

📘 It Ends with Us – Review

Author: Colleen Hoover

During the summer I read the book “The Kite Runner” by Khaled Hosseini, and it really changed my point of view on life. It’s about a boy named Amir who grew up in Afghanistan , and how one day he made a terrible mistake that still haunts him. The other character who caught my eye was Hassan, everything about him reminded me of qualities of a gentleman. He was loyal, kind and had a heart of gold. The book captures the image of Afghanistan before and after the Taliban took over. The author’s writing was out of this world and eye opening. I would recommend this book to people who liked Half of a Yellow Sun by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.

Rating:5/5

I liked reading "The Hidden Oracle" by Rick Riordan. As a fan of mythology, I was excited to dive into the world of Apollo, and the author didn't disappoint.

The story follows Apollo, the Greek god of music, poetry, and prophecy, as he's turned into a mortal and forced to navigate the human world. With his mortal self, Apollo embarks on a quest to regain his divine form and prevent the evil Triumvirate from unleashing a monster that could destroy the world.

Riordan's writing is engaging, and full of clever references to Greek mythology. The characters are very likeable.

The story runs fast, with plenty of twists and turns. Riordan seamlessly binds together mythology, magic, and modern-day themes, making the story feel both familiar and fresh.

Overall, "The Hidden Oracle" is an exciting and entertaining read that's perfect for fans of mythology and adventure.

The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath is a deep and moving book that I really liked. It tells the story of Esther Greenwood, a young woman who seems to have everything going for her but slowly starts to fall apart inside. The way Plath writes about mental illness feels very real and honest, and I found myself really connecting with Esther’s thoughts and struggles. Some parts of the book were a bit slow, and a few of the side characters didn’t feel very real, but overall the story was strong and emotional. It made me think a lot about pressure, identity, and what it means to be “normal.” I would recommend this book to people who liked The Catcher in the Rye or My Year of Rest and Relaxation. I’d give it 4 out of 5 stars.

I read a book called The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel. This book is about how people think and feel about money. It teaches us that being good with money is not always about being smart. It's more about how we behave.

The author uses simple and real-life stories to explain how money works. That made it very easy to understand. One part I really liked was called "Luck & Risk." It shows that sometimes people become rich not just because they worked hard, but also because they were lucky. And sometimes, bad things happen even if you do everything right, because of risk.

This book helped me understand that money is not just about numbers. It's also about our choices, our habits, and our emotions.

I enjoyed this book a lot and I think everyone should read it to learn how to think better about money.

"Veronika Decides to Die" by Paulo Coelho is a book that really made me think about life in a totally different way. It’s about a girl named Veronika who seems to have everything but she feels super empty inside and decides to end her life. But then she survives the attempt and ends up in a mental hospital and she gets to know that she don't have much time left to live  in this world .

At first I thought it was going to be sad and depressing, but it actually made me realize that everyone has struggles, even if they don’t show it. The story starts to get more interesting as we get introduced to other patients and about their lives and struggles they had to face. They all had their own problems, which made me realize nobody’s perfect. The story is deep but it makes us get into and think about.

If you like books that make you think about what really matters in life, I think you’d enjoy this. It’s different from most books I’ve read, but I think everyone should read it at least once to see life in a new way.

Overall, I liked it a lot. It’s a book that stays with you and makes you think about your own life and choices.

This is the first ever book I took in 9th because of the front cover and back context after I had red this book Geronimo stilton became my all time fav author then I have read almost all of Thea stilton's book from then on. Thea Stilton and the Mountain of Fire is an exciting, fast-paced mystery that takes readers deep into the heart of the Australian Outback. The Thea Sisters—five brave and smart mouselets—team up to solve the mystery of a missing scientist, facing wild animals, hidden traps, and an active volcano.

One of the book's strongest points is its emphasis on teamwork and friendship. Each Thea Sister brings her own unique strengths, showing how different personalities can work together to solve problems. The setting is vivid and educational, with fun facts about Australia, animals, and volcanoes sprinkled throughout the story.

The illustrations and colorful text make the reading experience lively and enjoyable, perfect for young readers who love adventure and learning new things. The suspense is age-appropriate—just enough to keep kids hooked without being too scary.

I loved this book and the author is because of the adventures they have been to and the thrilling storys. And I love the bond between the Thea sisters I always wanted a sister or a friend like that too so reading this book made me feel good . I recommend this book to anyone who loves adventure and little mystery this is a great choice you will love it

J.J.R Tolkien's book, the Lord of the Rings is a very interesting story about a creature called a hobbit. The book was extremely captivating as I was always anxious to know what was going to happen after any page.

The story starts with a young hobbit called Bilbo Baggins finding a ring in a cave and brings it back to his village. He didn't know

the fact that the ring he brought was forged by the dark lord Sauron and contained its evilness. He later passes it on to a different young hobbit called Frodo Baggins after Bilbo starts getting old. Frodo realises the evil power of the ring and sets on a mission to destroy it. Initially he sets off with only one companion : Sam Gamgee, another young hobbit but later he has a group of 9 people. eventually they get attacked and the whole group gets split up.

The book stops at a critical stage and left me wondering what will happen next and how will Frodo destroy the ring...

One of Us Is Lying by Karen M. McManus is a gripping mystery novel that follows four high school students Bronwyn, Nate, Cooper, and Addy who become suspects after a classmate, Simon, dies during detention.

Simon was known for running a gossip app that revealed secrets about his peers, and he was about to expose damaging information about each of the four students.

As the investigation unfolds, each character is forced to confront their hidden truths and navigate the suspicion surrounding them. The novel explores themes of identity, trust, and the impact of secrets, ultimately revealing that Simon’s death was not as straightforward as it seemed.

Through twists and emotional growth, the story highlights how appearances can be deceiving and how truth can bring both pain and freedom.

I found One of Us Is Lying deeply engaging and thought-provoking, as it offers a realistic portrayal of the pressures and insecurities faced by teenagers.

Through the perspectives of the main characters, it explores themes like identity, trust, and the weight of secrets, making it a powerful and relatable read for anyone trying to find their place in a world full of expectations and judgment.

I highly recommend One of Us Is Lying to any teenager facing the pressure to fit in or hide their true self.

The story’s multi-perspective narrative and emotionally complex characters make it an essential read for young adults, parents, and educators, offering powerful insights into identity, the impact of secrets, and the struggle to be seen for who we really are.

The Girl on the Train is a collection of short stories by Ruskin Bond that begins with a charming tale about a blind man’s encounter with an intriguing young girl on a train. Through his leisurely paced narratives, Bond transports readers to picturesque hill stations and sleepy towns, often introducing protagonists who forge new friendships or romances while visiting these locales.

The collection comprises 12 stories, and the most memorable for me was the fifth tale, Time Stops at Shamli. It follows an author’s impromptu trip to Shamli, an obscure little town, after his train is delayed at the station. Instead of waiting for the journey to resume, he decides to explore the town. In Shamli, he lodges at a near-empty hotel but encounters curious locals who keep him amused, including a surprising meeting with a beautiful married woman.

While some stories are entertaining, others feel repetitive in theme and execution, making the book a mixed experience. For instance, the penultimate tale, The Night Train at Deoli, starts similarly to the Shamli story, with the protagonist crossing a station and wondering about the town’s mysteries. Several stories center on an author-protagonist meeting and becoming infatuated with a woman he has just encountered.

The final story, Bus Stop, Pipalnagar, is the longest in the collection and, unfortunately, the most mundane. However, it stands out for its refreshing focus on a writer’s friendship with an orphaned street seller. Both dream of saving money and moving to Delhi for a better life. Until then, they share small-town adventures, including cooking chicken together and cycling in the rain.

Reading The Boy in the Striped Pajamas was a very touching and emotional experience for me. The story of Bruno and Shmuel really moved me. Even though they were separated by a fence and came from completely different worlds, their innocent friendship grew stronger every day.

As I read the book, I felt sad for Shmuel and the people in the camp. Bruno didn’t fully understand what was happening, and that made the story even more heartbreaking. The ending was very tragic and left a deep impact on me.

This book made me think about how cruel war and hatred can be. But it also showed me how pure and honest a child’s heart can be. It reminded me that true friendship has no boundaries. Reading this book was a powerful and unforgettable experience

Holly Jackson, known for her twisty mysteries, delivers another gripping story in The Reappearance of Rachel Price.

This book had me hooked from the start. It’s about a girl named Bel whose mom disappeared when she was little-and then suddenly comes back 16 years later. But something about it feels off, and Bel starts questioning everything.

I liked how the mystery slowly unfolded and how you could feel Bel’s confusion and doubt. The story had a lot of twists but also showed how complicated family can be. It wasn’t just about solving a mystery,it made me think about trust and how well we really know the people around us.

As I was reading the book, I found myself a bit puzzled by the author's view. But as I continued reading, things started making sense. I had attempted to read this book before but never made it to the end. Now, I finally did!

The story begins with a guy named Gregor, who seems just like any other average guy, working hard to support his family. But then, one day, everything changes dramatically. He wakes up to find that he’s turned into an insect, and suddenly, his family feels completely disconnected from him. They start looking for jobs since Gregor can no longer provide for them after his transformation. Usually, while Gregor is out there working long hours, his mother and sister are busy buying pretty dresses, and his father does no job. Now, they have to take care of Gregor, but it’s clear they don’t care about him at all. As time goes on, he stops eating and slowly fades away .The story wraps up with Gregor's death, and surprisingly, his family feels relieved, finally free from the burden of having to deal with him.

The author has a strong point of view. The story shows us a harsh reality of life. People often value others only for what they can provide, not for who they are. It’s a story about isolation, lack of empathy, and how society can treat people as less than human when they no longer fit in or are "useful."

This book really surprised me. The setup is so unique — a murder happens during a bridge game, and the suspects are all people who might have gotten away with murder before. I loved how Poirot uses psychology instead of clues to solve the mystery. The story kept me guessing the whole time. I liked the clever structure, and the ending totally caught me off guard. Christie nailed it again with a very different kind of mystery.

A Wrinkle in Time is a unique blend of science fiction, fantasy, and heartfelt emotion. The story follows Meg Murry, a girl who feels awkward and out of place in the world, as she searches for her missing father. Alongside her brilliant younger brother Charles Wallace and her friend Calvin, Meg travels through space and time using a concept called “tessering,” which feels like a magical shortcut through the universe. Their adventure leads them to the mysterious planet Camazotz, ruled by an evil force called IT, which threatens to crush free will and individuality.What makes this story memorable is how it focuses on Meg’s personal growth rather than action alone. As she struggles with her fears and insecurities, Meg learns to trust herself and discovers that love, loyalty, and compassion are stronger than any weapon. Mrs. Whatsit, Mrs. Who, and Mrs. Which add a touch of whimsy and wisdom, making the journey feel like a mix of science and magic. The writing might feel a bit old-fashioned at times, but its themes of courage, family, and standing up for what’s right are timeless and resonate with readers of all ages.

"The Secret Garden"

Review:

"The Secret Garden" is a heartwarming and transformative story about Mary Lennox, a spoiled and lonely girl who is sent to live with her reclusive uncle in a large, gloomy estate. While exploring the estate, she discovers a hidden, locked garden that has been abandoned for years. As she begins to tend to the garden, she not only helps the garden bloom but also heals herself and others around her.

The beauty of the novel lies in its simplicity and the way it celebrates nature, friendship, and personal growth. Through Mary’s journey, we see how kindness, effort, and a positive outlook can bring about meaningful change. The characters are all richly developed, and the setting—especially the garden—becomes almost a character in itself, representing hope and renewal.

Atomic habits - small changes matter in life 

# data[].attributes.body
Atomic Habits is a helpful book. It shows how small changes in life can make a big difference. The author, explains that we don’t need big changes to improve,getting a little better every day is enough.

There are four key points to build good habits in the book that I would like to share ,

•Make the habit clear

•Make it interesting

•Make it easy

•Make it satisfying

There is a good quote in this book which says that ,''You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems.''

I agree with this that it's good to have goals but habits are also important which can creates changes in the process.

This books reaches us the reality that small things that we do matter and it's will bring changes in your life , I liked the book and I guess everyone should try reading this book

Author: Agatha Christie

One day, when I was in the school library, I was looking for new books that I had never read before. I saw the book Sleeping Murder by Agatha Christie and found the first page image very interesting, so I picked it up. That was the first time I ever read a book by Agatha Christie, and I really enjoyed it.

On the same day, by coincidence, my sister also brought home a book by Agatha Christie called The Unexpected Guest. After I finished Sleeping Murder, I exchanged books with my sister and started reading The Unexpected Guest.

The story begins with a man who enters a house during a foggy night and finds a dead body. A woman is standing next to it with a gun. At first, it seems like she is guilty, but the mystery slowly unfolds with many twists and turns.

I liked the story because it was full of suspense and kept me guessing until the end. The characters were interesting, and the ending was surprising. Agatha Christie’s writing made it easy to imagine everything like a movie in my head.

This book made me like mystery stories even more, and I will surely read more books by Agatha Christie. I recommend it to anyone who enjoys detective or crime stories.

This is a great story for people who love fantasy. It has a decent amount of violence throughout the story.Even with the violence this story has a great lesson.It's a pretty good book, much like Harry Potter in some ways, but extremely different in others, and is definitely an interesting series, although there is some cursing and romanticscenes, which I don't like MacHale’s book delivers many messages to adolescents to help them through a difficult time in their lives and does it in a way that captures the minds of the readers and keeps their interest.

This series has many fantasy aspects to it, similar to books like Harry Potter. However, these books are shorter and written to appeal more to the teenage mind.This shows adolescent readers that it is all right to be scared, but that doing the right thing is a part of growing up and transitioning into adulthood. This book is a must-read for any pre-teen or teenage reader who loves adventure and fantasy.

After reading A Good Girl's Guide to Murder, I became interested in reading the rest of Holly Jackson's books. Five Survive is a standalone book. While reading it, I couldn't put it down because the story was truly thrilling.

From the moment the six friends were stuck in their RV with a sniper outside, to the very end, it kept me glued to the book. Even though some of the twists and turns were quite predictable for me, I still found it to be a very good read.

I am now in a state where I don't know what to do because that book was a standalone, and there isn't any continuation for it.

The story centers on the protagonist, Red, who, with her friends, is going to attend a reunion with her other classmates.

Each character has their own secrets and motivations, which are revealed layer by layer. The tension is thick, and all the characters represent relatable human behavior. In any situation, the characters think about themselves or the people they care about, which felt quite realistic.

Now I'm interested in reading Jackson's next book, The Reappearance of Rachel Price.

Around the World in 80 Days is an enjoyable read by all means, and I was certainly entertained throughout and excited to read further. But it cannot be ignored that repetition and a cheap plot device held much of this story together. Suspending your imagination slightly, this book is a great read, but remember that you may feel as if you’re at the same timeline on several occasions.

When Phileas Fogg arrives in a new place, some unusual or frankly bizarre interruption delays them, they get out of the situation, and are able to pay to get back on track. There were too many situations where the solution was simply to offer a reward or pay an insurmountable sum to escape the problems faced,which I felt that it could be replaced by anything more creative

Whereas Phileas Fogg, despite being the main character, is not particularly explored in much depth, his servant Passepartout leaves readers thoroughly happy. Whereas not blundering by any means, the accidents that he gets into along the journey are no less than originally comedic and in many cases, you cannot help but feel sorry for this gentleman, especially when considering the blame he later on places on himself for this.

"The Complete Novels of Sherlock Holmes" is a mind blowing masterpiece! With thrilling crime stories and a masterful mind to track upon the right scent, this is a fantastic book and I absolutely enjoyed it! Authored by Arthur Conan Doyle, this book is a collection of four novels - "A Study in Scarlet", "The Sign of the Four", "The Hound of the Baskervilles" and "The Valley of Fear". Sherlock Holmes is described as an eccentric detective whose queer methods can solve the most complicated cases. The stories are narrated by Dr Watson, his best companion. They're both my favourite characters. Keen observation and precise deduction are the exceptional qualities of Sherlock Holmes. Reading the book makes us realise that even the tiniest details that one may tend to overlook are of greatest importance. Holmes can deduce the character or profession of a person by taking a look at his face, watch, or even a stick! He knows a great deal of chemistry and the annals of crimes. He knows the methods to calculate the height of a person by his stride, methods to distinguish between soil types and between poisons! All these make him an excellent detective when it comes to a crime scene. In the first novel, "A Study in Scarlet", Dr Watson is introduced to Sherlock Holmes. A case is presented before them in which they have to track the murderer of Enoch J. Drebber. My favourite character from this story is Jefferson Hope who has a tragic past and devotes his life to vengeance. The second novel, "The Sign of the Four" begins with a mysterious incident concerning Mary Morstan. The case then takes quite a different turn and Holmes and Watson constantly works to solve the case. "The Hound of the Baskervilles" is the third novel and my favourite among the four. There is a superstitious legend which tells that every heir of the Baskerville family meets their dreadful end by a ghastly hound. The legend becomes concerning after the mysterious death of Sir Charles Baskerville. The next heir, Henry Baskerville must remain on his guard. Sherlock Holmes, a practical man, doesn't take interest in such a legend. But a lot of puzzling incidents follow and they're confirmed that a criminal is involved. There are lots of twists and turns in the story and we tend to suspect a lot of characters. The fourth and final novel, "The Valley of Fear" presents a case in which a man named Douglas is murdered. In the end, there is a very unexpected twist which gives rise to a masterful foe and a fine rival to our detective. This book consists of 536 pages and it took me a while to complete it. There are a few instances from the book which show the friendship between Dr Watson and Sherlock Holmes. And that's really warming. Reading this book was really entertaining and I'd recommend to anyone who's eager for thrillers!

The Catcher in the Rye is a wonderful book I've read it tells about the story of Holden Caulfield, a 16-year-old boy from a wealthy family who has just been expelled from his boarding school, due to poor academic performance. Disappointed with the world around him, Holden leaves school early and decides to spend a few days alone in New York City before returning home to face his parents.

Throughout his journey in the city, He struggles with deep feelings of loneliness, confusion, and depression. He interacts with various people, including former teachers, old girlfriends, strangers, and even his younger sister, but finds most of them disappointing. His constant critique of the adult world stems from his fear of growing up and losing innocence.

Holden’s fantasy of becoming the "catcher in the rye" represents his desire to save children from falling into the corrupt adult world he imagines himself standing in a field of rye, catching children before they fall off a cliff, a metaphor for losing innocence and becoming an adult.

His mental state worsens as the days go by. He becomes physically and emotionally exhausted, and after a series of failed attempts to connect with others, he sneaks into his family’s apartment to see Phoebe his sister . She tries to convince him to stay, but he plans to run away and live in isolation. However, when he takes Phoebe to the zoo and watches her ride a carousel, he experiences a moment of happiness and acceptance, realizing that he cannot protect children from growing up.

By the end of the novel, Holden tells the story from a rest home or mental institution, where he is recovering. He expresses some hope for the future but remains uncertain about what lies ahead.

Through Holden Caulfield's raw and honest journey, the author  captures the struggles, fears, and contradictions of adolescence, making the novel both deeply relatable and thought-provoking.

I found this novel deeply relatable and reflective, as it offers an authentic glimpse into the emotional struggles of adolescence. Through Holden's experiences, it provides powerful insights into identity, loneliness, and the search for belonging, making it a meaningful read for anyone navigating the complex path to adulthood.

I highly recommend The Catcher in the Rye to any teenager feeling lost or misunderstood. Holden Caulfield's raw honesty and relatable struggles make this novel an essential read for young adults, parents, and educators, providing powerful insights into teenage angst, identity, and the search for belonging.

This psychological thriller centres onAlicia Berenson . The story is narrated by Theo Faber, a psychotherapist who becomes obsessed with uncovering Alicia's silence and the truth behind the murder.

This book has some real twists, and it is deeply satisfying. Michaelides knows how to set up red herrings and flip the script so the reveals are both surprising and logical at one time. I was speechless after that final twist—serious moments of just sitting to process it!

How Michaelides gets into the psyches of his characters is simply amazing. Obsession with Alicia's case by Theo, and at the same time, her enigmatic silence, creates complex psychological depth. It is interesting to get inside their minds and see exactly how their pasts work on their present actions.

There are moments where some developments in the plot may seem a bit familiar if you have been a seasoned reader of thrillers, but honestly, the skilful way Michaelides weaves them together makes up for it.

When I first picked up Ikigai, I wasn't sure what to expect. The cover said it was about the Japanese secret to a long and happy life, but as a teenager, I wasn’t exactly thinking about longevity. I was more interested in understanding what makes life meaningful and Ikigai gave me a lot to think about.The book introduces the concept of "ikigai," a Japanese word that means "a reason for being." It’s the idea that everyone has something that gives them a reason to wake up each morning.What I loved most was how the book mixes philosophy with real-life stories. The authors visited a small village in Okinawa where many people live past 100, and they explored the simple, active, and happy lives these people lead. It made me think that maybe happiness isn’t about success or money, but about doing things you love, staying connected with others, and living in the moment.Some parts of the book were a bit boring to me. But overall, it felt like a gentle reminder to enjoy life, find what I love.It made me think about my "ikigai" even if I haven't found it yet.

Schindler's Ark, is a novel which made me understand the agonizing lives of the jewish people, in German occupied Poland during the second world war.

The novel revolves around, Oskar Schindler, a German industrialist who was a part of the Nazi Party, but was a savior for the Jews whom he employed to save them from the holocaust.

The grim lives of the Jews, during that particular era is displayed wonderfully in this novel, and the efforts of Schindler to rescue them, though his motive at first was self interest but ultimately, we can see him changing his motives to actually choose humanity over profits and saving lives of the innocent people.

This novel, has also been made to a movie called the Schindler's List, which is something, I haven't watched, but am eager to watch it after reading this particular novel!

•As the title suggest 'Good Vibes, Good Life' the book too is filled with all positive thoughts in it. Vex King is an amazing author and has written this book very beautifully by keeping today's social trends in mind.

•Vex explains each chapter brilliantly by giving his own life experiences on how one should live their life, how can you improve and manifest your goals in your life.

•He initially starts by explaining about prioritising ourselves (self love) and how law of attraction works. Law of attraction works only if we are surrounded by good frequency of vibration (vibe) and think/be positive.

•He eventually shares his life experiences, lifestyles and his family background. Most importantly how his life changed after having a positive environment.

•My most favourite and memorable lines goes like this, "The feeling we project are returned on a like-for-like basis through our experiences". My understanding on this line is about the karma we faces through our experiences in our life.

To conclude, he sum up all vital values about life in this book where we can relate to his life experiences and we can try to improve by taking his suggestion as explained in this book.

"THAT NIGHT": Four Friends. Twenty Years. One Haunting Secret.

It was the night that began with a bottle of whisky and a game of Ouija but ended with the death of Sania, their hostel mate. The friends vowed never to discuss that fateful night, a pact that had kept their friendship and guilt dormant for the last twenty years. But things take a huge turn when someone tries to bring back the incidents of that terrific night by giving few glimpses of that night to all the four friends through internet. These four friends, who live in the corners of the world try to figure out who the person is and the reason why he chose to do all these things after twenty years.

This story signifies the importance of trust in friendship. I would rate this book a 4/5, because as we get closer to the climax, the story tends to slow down..

# data[].attributes.body
'Several People's Are Typing' by Calvin Kasulke is a novel highlighting the digital development, online interaction and the blurred lines between reality and virtual reality.

The story follows Gerald, a mediocre employee, as he navigates the petty trials and supernatural tribulations of his co-workers.

The novel is a satire that pokes fun at modern corporate culture, highlighting the absurdities and frustrations of working in a 9-5 job.

One of the standout feature of this book is its use of language. Calvin Kasulke cleverly uses internet slang, emojis and chatbot phrases to create a distinct clever narrative voice. We can also relative so much that we get invested in the story so easily. The humour is dry, making it a thought-provoking and entertaining read.

The author acknowledges the challenges and pitfalls of online interactions while also highlighting the potential benifits and opportunities for growth.

This book is a must-read for anyone who's interested in the understanding of the impact of technology on human relationships and society, someone who's simply curious about the digital world.

Overall 'Several People's Are Typing' is a great read. Its a book that will make you laugh, cringe and nod your head in recognition as it is so relatable. I can strongly say that this book is highly entertaining and will keep you invested in the story. I honestly enjoyed and got to know several informations.

Pretty, single, 24-year-old Veronika decides to die for two reasons, both of them phony: one, because she realizes she will one day be old; and two, because a lot of things are wrong in this world. She then takes a lot of sleeping pills. While waiting to die.

Unfortunately, I cannot really go into much detail without spoiling much of the book's content, so I'm just going to say that those few who decide to read it may find in it a beautiful profoundly moving story, about life, and death.

Veronika is one of those characters that, despite all circumstances, you cannot but find her tragically adorable.

Safiyyah’s War by Hiba Noor Khan, and it left a deep impact on me. The story is set during World War II in Nazi-occupied Paris and follows a 13-year-old Muslim girl named Safiyyah who lives in the Grand Mosque with her father, the imam. When the Nazis arrive, Safiyyah learns that the mosque is secretly helping Jewish families escape from danger. As she uncovers more about her father's quiet resistance, she finds the courage to take action herself.

What really touched me was Safiyyah’s bravery and the way she stood up for what was right, even when it was dangerous. The book shows how even a young person can make a big difference. It also made me think about the importance of compassion, unity, and standing against injustice, no matter who it affects.

I found the story both inspiring and emotional, and I would definitely recommend it to others, especially those interested in history, human values, and stories of courage.

Nights at the Circus by Angela Carter Is one of my favourite books I've read so far this book  is a magical realist novel blends fantasy, feminism, and postmodernism.

The story follows Fevvers, a six-foot-two winged woman who performs as an aerialist in a turn-of-the-century circus. She claims to be part-swan, born in a London brothel and raised among eccentric characters. American journalist Jack Walser becomes fascinated by her and joins the circus, hoping to uncover the truth behind her wings and her mysterious life.

As the circus travels from London to St. Petersburg and then to Siberia, Fevvers and Walser encounter a surreal cast of performers and bizarre events. Walser's journey becomes one of transformation as he grapples with reality, identity, and gender norms.

The novel explores themes of feminism, illusion vs. reality, bodily autonomy, and the power of storytelling, with Fevvers symbolizing a defiant and ambiguous version of womanhood.

Book Review: A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder by Holly Jackson

# data[].attributes.body
For my book review, I chose A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder by Holly Jackson, and honestly, I couldn’t put it down. This was one of those stories where I told myself I’d read “just one more chapter” and then ended up finishing like 100 pages. It’s a mystery/thriller that follows a high school student named Pippa Fitz-Amobi, who decides to investigate a murder in her town for her final year project. Everyone thinks a boy named Sal Singh killed his girlfriend, Andie Bell, and then took his own life—but Pip isn’t so sure and as she uncovers the mystery things get waymore intense than she expected.

One of the things I liked most about this book is how it’s written. It’s not just regular chapters—there are interview transcripts, notes from Pip’s project, messages, and more. It made the story feel more real and fast-paced, like I was solving the case with her. There were so many twists that I kept changing my mind about who I thought the real killer was. Just when I thought I had it figured out, something new would happen.

Pip is a great main character. She’s really smart and determined, but also makes mistakes like any real person would. I liked how the book showed the pressure she felt to do the right thing, and how not everyone wanted her digging into the past. The story also brings up serious topics like racism and how people can be unfairly judged based on assumptions.

If you’re into true crime, murder mysteries, or just books that keep you guessing, this one’s definitely for you. I couldn’t put it down, and I already want to read the sequel.

The plot was full of suspense and kept me guessing until the end. I liked how the author added twists and turns that made the mystery more interesting. Poirot’s clever thinking and calm attitude impressed me, and I learned how small details can make a big difference in solving a case.

The book kept me hooked from start to finish. I never felt bored while reading it. Because of this book, I have become more interested in detective and mystery novels. Now, I want to read more books by Agatha Christie and explore this genre further.

"Sherlock Holmes: A Study in Scarlet" is the book in which the greatest fictional detective,Sherlock Holmes,was introduced by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. In this novel,Holmes solves a mysterious murder case that took place in an abandoned house on Brixton Road. The victim, Enoch Drebber, was found dead in the house with no visible injuries, and there were no signs of robbery in the area. The case becomes even more intriguing when the word "RACHE" is discovered written on the wall in blood. Holmes, with his keen observation skills and clever deductions, solves the case that the other two detectives, Lestrade and Gregson, of Scotland Yard, failed to crack. I loved this novel for its suspense, curiosity, and unexpected plot twists. Overall, it's engaging.

When I read Little Women, I didn’t expect it to hit this hard. I thought it would be soft and slow, all tea and dresses—but it was deeper than that. It felt like watching real girls grow into women, each one so different and yet tied together like threads in the same cloth.

Jo, obviously, was my favorite. Loud, wild, smart, and stubborn. I saw myself in her—wanting to write, to be free, to not be told how a girl “should” be. But Meg, Beth, and Amy had their moments too. They weren’t perfect, and that made them feel real.

Some parts dragged, sure. It’s not a fast book. But it’s honest. It talks about dreams, family, loss, growing up. About how life doesn’t always go the way you want—but it still means something.

It’s a quiet book, but not a weak one. It left a little ache in my chest, the kind you get when a story knows you better than you expect.

The Girl Who Drank The Moon

This book felt different from the start. Not loud or fast, but soft and glowing, like moonlight. I didn’t expect to love it, but the writing pulled me in—it was simple, yet it said so much.

I liked how nothing was exactly what it seemed. The “evil witch” wasn’t evil. The “good” town wasn’t good. Even the magic was more emotional than flashy—it came from love, sorrow, and memory.

Luna, Glerk, Fyrian… they were strange, but warm. They made me feel like magic could exist if you just looked at the world the right way.

It wasn’t a twisty, action-packed story, but it made me think. About stories, fear, truth—and how people believe what they’re told because they’re too scared to ask questions.

It’s the kind of book that stays in your chest long after you finish it. Quiet, but powerful.

My Reading Experience – The Kane Chronicles

I actually read The Kane Chronicles before Percy Jackson, so it was my first peek into Rick Riordan’s world. At first, I thought it would just be some ancient Egypt story with curses and pyramids—but it turned out to be so much more.

Sadie and Carter felt real to me. Sadie’s sarcasm? Loved it. Carter’s calm but serious vibe? Balanced it out. The way they told the story together, switching between chapters, made it fun and fast-paced.

I didn’t know much about Egyptian mythology before reading it, so everything felt new. The gods were wild and dangerous, not just powerful. And the idea that magic comes from words and symbols—that stayed in my head for a while.

Some parts felt a bit rushed, like the story wanted to end quickly. But I still remember the feeling it gave me—that families are messy, magic is everywhere, and you don’t have to be perfect to do something important.

It wasn’t just a book. It was an escape.
