Let The Game Begin - by Sandeep Sharma

Title: LET THE GAME BEGIN -Sandeep Sharma

Cover: The cover is actually beautiful , it clearly depicts and goes with the story and the plot , I love how beautifully" I "has been replaced with a beautiful chess queen and the backdrop of a old men playing chess and the troops which depict war , everything about it is actually beautiful .

Plot and Characterization: When we go with the plot , the plot is somewhat kind of a typical Bollywood horror movie past , but it keeps a person gripping , the characters have been carefully placed , be it the king Viratha , and the vyapi , the concept of immortality has also been placed carefully , once scientific judgements have not been sidelined rather appreciated and taken into consideration .

Review: This book is something that keeps one engrossed in it and not wanting to leave it in between .This book even though one finds it predictable they will not be able to leave it . I love how past and the future is kept coordinated .The characters of the present are made as fierce as the past ones and as smart as them too .The curse thing is something that gives one a mind twist and keeps one more enthusiastic about anything else.What I like the most about it is the fact that it amazing when it comes to the confusion that is caused with the modern technology and the historic past .

Positive Points:
1.Keeps you engaged

Negative Points:
1.Abrupt ending ( I am not a fan of to be continued kind of ending )
2.A Bollywood touch kind of story.

The Heart Affair by Rashi Dubey
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

“Beginning of any relationship is easy but being in it needs continuous efforts always” as rightly said by Author @rashidubey in her book THE HEART AFFAIR. Don’t we all put a lot of efforts when its the start of the relationship but as the “honeymoon period “ as it is rightly said fades we eventually lose that spark and give up on putting efforts, or sometimes one of us just starts taking things for granted? Haven’t we all taken up someone else’s help when we were in our last stages of mental breakdown and in those stages of vulnerability and emotion unavailability we have sometimes taken steps we regret till days, or we have controlled ourselves from taking any such steps which we will have to regret? We all ignore the things that we have, we are blessed with in changing things we don't have, and in that case, we often lose what we possessed and what was just ours, But does everything we lose means failure, every wrong step we take means end of the world? Aren’t there things like second chances, by which we can actually correct our mistakes?

It is a short story that deals with a relationship which is similar to all the modern relationships which we are seeing nowadays. It shows us strength love has and how sometimes it just takes little effort from both the sides to make things all right. We are no more in an era where having children will keep us bound till death do us apart marriages. We are in an era where people find love even at the age of 40, where people get divorced even after 20 years of love marriages, we are in an era where we don't forget to keep our hearts out.

But amidst all these things, don't we always just want to be with the person we love, and want that person to just notice the little efforts that we make, do those little anniversary celebrations that we decorate for, or appreciate or give compliments, don’t we all crave for such simple things.

If you are someone who is struggling with relationships, who is having a lot of problems in their marriage but those problems are related to ignorance, just check this book out, read this story maybe you can learn a little from these people, maybe you can make things alright. I am not a supporter of marriages should never end no matter how much another person is hurting you, I am just a supporter of making things right in a relationship where they can be right again.

I must say the Author Rashi Dubey’s writing style is different and it connects to the heart , she writes on issues that we all face in our daily lives , but are too ashamed to admit or talk about , because of certain veil of happiness that we have on us to maintain every relation and bond that we have in the society . I loved reading her short story a must recommended one.
