My small little shopping trip

A friend of mine called me up in the evening and informed that there were some good offers on a bookstore in Sarabha nagar, near my House.Apparently the shop owner was selling some books 25 rupees per piece. At around 8 o' clock finishing my other work,i set off to the bookstore, to find sackfuls of second hand books lying in one corner of the bookstore,starting price was 25 rupees as my friend had said.But there were mostly romance and classics.ALso for teenagers there was the sweet valley twin series.
I picked up 6 books, out of which finally i dropped two crime related ones and bought these 4:
Just see because i dont know anything about them [Thats the way i shop for books.Pure instinct.]
1)Pride of place - Nicola Thorne
2) A slave to kiss - Anastasia Dubois
3)Crosswinds - Shirley S. Rohde
4) Kim - Rudyard Kipling

The funniest part was,mom opened up my shopping bag,she rarely does that,but mom dad were sitting,talking and she opened up. The book on the top was A slave to kiss [DOnt even try to imagine the Bookcover lol]
If you have any clue about any of the books do temme.

Jai Sri Ram !!!

Does India need communal parties?

I think, it was Tan's post on this blog itself, Republic Day Event, where this question was raised. My answer. YES. we need communal parties even in Independent, Secular India. Now let me take you, back to events before 1947. When India was a colony of the British Empire. The congress party, in its attempt to gain momentum for the independence movement, heavily used Hinduism, an example of which is the famous Ganesh Utsav held in Mumbai every year. Who complains? No one. But at that time, due to various policies of the congress, Muslims started feeling alienated. Jinnah, in these times, got stubborn over the need of Pakistan and he did find a lot of supporters. Congress, up till late 1940's never got bothered by it. And why should we? Who complains? No one. But there were repercussions. The way people were butchered and slaughtered during that brief time when India got partitioned, was even worse than a civil war scenario. All in the name of religion. And there indeed was cr...

Did You Ever Love Me? Book Review: Can Rithvik singh turn heartbreak into a homecoming?

Did You Ever Love Me? by Rithvik Singh is a tender contemporary poetry collection about love, heartbreak, longing, self worth and learning to let go. Its greatest strength is emotional accessibility: Singh writes directly to readers who feel intensely and care deeply. The collection offers comfort without pretending heartbreak is simple, though its simplicity may occasionally feel familiar to seasoned poetry readers. Did you Ever Love Me? Have you ever loved someone so completely that, after they left, you were left wondering whether they had ever understood what they had been given? Not merely whether they loved you, but whether they ever noticed how much you loved them, how much patience you offered, how many small things you remembered, or how often you chose to stay when leaving might have been easier. There is a particular loneliness in that question because it rarely arrives at a dramatic moment. More often, it finds you while you are doing something completely ordinary. Yo...
