#LITEROMA Book Review :: "Dear Russell, Yours Truly" by Avantika Debnath

Image
** Thanks to the author for gifting us a Kindle copy of the book for review. ** ** Thanks to our reviewer for reviewing the book on behalf of Literoma. ** ‘Dear Russell, Yours Truly’ is a wonderful collection of seven power-packed short stories written by a very promising writer Ms. Avantika Debnath. Ms. Debnath already created ripples of popularity in the literary domain through her debut book ‘The Bridal Pyre - Nainam Dahati Pawakah’. We’re sure her second book ‘Dear Russel, Yours Truly’ has enough power to turn that ripple into waves of popularity. The liking for the book starts with the subjects picked for the seven stories. It continues throughout for the beautiful story telling done by the author. However, what amazes the readers the most is the way the stories get concluded. Each story ends in the most unlikely way. Book cover is also good. Editing gaps are there but can be ignored keeping in mind the quality contents. Our rating of the book is 4.6*/5*. The book ticks

Book Review by #LITEROMA :: "There’s a poet in everyone" by Dr. Diwakar Pokhriyal

** Thanks to the author for gifting us a Kindle copy of the book for review. ** ** Thanks to our reviewer for reviewing the book on behalf of Literoma. ** ‘There’s a poet in everyone’ by Dr. Diwakar Pokhriyal is a very very special book in its own right. The book title tells a lot about its genre. Poetry is the most difficult form of writing and the main barrier towards writing poetry is to think of a structure in this free flowing stream of emotion. That’s where a book like ‘There’s a poet in everyone’ plays a very important role in today’s poetic realm. In a world which is going through changing dynamics, one thing that remains constant is human emotion and hence the relevance of poetry. This particular book is going to help all the persons with a flair of creativity to shape up the poets in them. Being a poet himself Dr. Diwakar does a fantastic job of analyzing the poetic psyche and builds this book around that premise. Of all the things, the book cover is the only point w

#Literoma Book Review - 'Vignettes of Life' by Sujit Dutta

Thanks to author for sharing a review copy of the book with #Literoma. Thanks to our reviewer Sneha Prakash Thakur for reviewing the book on behalf of #Literoma. "Vignettes of Life " is collection of 14 short stories. These stories revolve around human emotions and real life experiences . Each story deals with different emotions and themes. It's quite refreshing to read a collection with so many different themes. Each story is unique. I have read a book like this after long time. It will keep you hooked till end. Although I liked each story, there are few stories which I loved immensely. These are ," The mysterious Woman", which is spooky yet emotional. The few others are "The Gift of love, " lost memories " and " The pearl". Each tells a story full of emotion and really touched my heart. The language is good and engaging. The narration is crisp and to the point. My rating - 4*/5*. A must read. Read all our book reviews at

#Literoma Book Review :: Pentacles by Sabarna Roy

** Thanks to the author for gifting us an ecopy of the book for review. ** ** Thanks to our reviewer for reviewing the book on behalf of Literoma. ** I had earlier read a couple of recent titles by the same author and it was my third in a row. Though 'Pentacles' is Sabarna's first published book but the order I took it came in third. Irrespective of the chronology, this book created a very special place in my heart. Comprising of a long story (or shall I say novella) and four prosaic verses, it has somehow the perfect flavour I keep searching in a literary fiction. The New Life story plot revolves around a city very known to me, so are the characters. The descriptions are vivid enough to even imagine what my eyes did not witness in reality. There are quite a few editing errors but that can be overlooked against the author's hard works. The book's cover is average but quite self explanatory. My overall rating of the book is 4.1*/5*. Can be read during lei

#Literoma Book Review - 'Vignettes of Life' by Sujit Dutta

Thanks to author for sharing a review copy of the book with #Literoma. Thanks to our reviewer Deepti Menon for reviewing the book on behalf of #Literoma. Reading this book by Sujit Dutta is like a tour, starting with the sighting of a mysterious woman in a deserted cottage right to the fourteenth story that ends on a tantalizing note, and a rare pearl. The author lauds the magnificence of India through descriptions of his protagonists’ lives, knotted through emotions veering between hope, love, loyalty, friendship and ambition. The Army connection is palpable. The stories travel from the ice-capped Himalayas in Ladakh and the allure of Guwahati, to the “haunting whistle of the steam engine” in the Delhi Rail Museum, and lost memories in Kolkata. As the river flows silently in Puducherry, the poignancy of the loss of parents comes out in Barmer, even as a sister waits for her brother’s homecoming in Bhopal. A hopeful couple meet in a Mumbai suburban train and rise above the vicis

#Literoma Book Review - 'Vignettes of Life' by Sujit Dutta

Thanks to author for sharing a review copy of the book with #Literoma. Thanks to our reviewer Satabdi Mukherjee for reviewing the book on behalf of #Literoma. The 14 short stories in this collection span the length and breadth of the country, and even feature other countries like Sri Lanka, Australia, and Canada. It is perhaps a testament to the comprehensive life experiences of the author. No story is like another--the wide variety of themes is mind-boggling. You will read about love, separation, terrorism, supernatural encounters, natural calamities, death, familial ties, addiction, and so much more. The language is simple and easy to understand. The beauty of the tales lie in the simplicity of their storytelling. As you read each story, it seems like the author is sitting in front of you, recounting his experiences while you listen in rapt attention. I particularly liked the attractive and polished cover art. The whole look gels very well with the contents of the book. Al
