"On the occasion of rakhi"
From tushar
So, this book,a hard bound edition was gifted by myself to my sister[ she gifted it back to my collection] On the occasion of rakhi.I never read much secret seven,but the whole feel of the book, encouraged me to gift it to her. The book is Enid Blyton's Three cheers,Secret seven.

Genre - fiction, children books[ well,adults can read it too],adventure

Age factor- Anyone and everyone who knows how to read English. Ideal for children between,8 to 16 years of age.But those who have caught up reading late in your life ,or are not so voracious readers,or find adult books a little complex to read
even if you are a adult,grab it.

The book
The Secret Seven consists of Peter, Janet , Jack, Barbara, George, Pam, Colin, and Scamper.
This revolves around a model aeroplane which falls into the garden of an empty house.These children suspect someone is living there,and start investigating...
Well,the book that we have in my library has illustrations too,so a good read.

Gifting ideas
1 perfect gift for children.Very popular series of our times.It should be easily available on almost every good bookstore.

A thought worth sharing
Books let us into their souls and lay open to us the secrets of our own. ~William Hazlitt

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...

Adopt what is right.....

I see that many people of my age group adopt certain western cultures. School students and college goers are often seen buying friendship bands and valentine cards. I feel its not right. You may think I am traditional and don't keep up to date views. But if you think a little maturely you will find out its not modern to wear friendship bands. Its rather pure pride. Now as I am talking about western culture I should tell you that I'm not against it in fact I find some of the western values very much followable like dignity of work, civic sense, accountability etc. We have to maturely decide what to adopt from the westerners and what not to adopt. Why should we go after them when we have a culture of such great versatility? -Priya Joyce

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...
