Book Review | In Love with Simran | Kulpreet Yadav




Kulpreet Yadav’s In love with Simran is a tale of Sanjana, Simran and Nik. Simran and Sanjana are best friends. Simran falls in love with a billionaire businessman, Nik Sethi, and is murdered soon after, leaving Sanjana shocked and enraged. She (Sanjana) had an impression that Nik had killed her best friend, but after a series of twists and turns, Sanjana realized that Nik was not the culprit and ended up falling in love with him and then finding the real murderer at the end.

Ruby, Nik's mother, Rajbala, and the inspector, Khan, are some of the other characters who add to the story's suspense.

The plot is good, but the murder mystery could have been written better. 

Twists and turns in the chapters are confusing, not surprising. The book can be a quick read as it has small chapters. Though the initial pages are monotonous, it will engage you later. 

The cover of the book is not aligned with the story as it gives you an impression that the book is a love story, which it is not.

The narration is good and readers can easily visualize the characters. Overall, a good attempt to write a murder mystery. 

I give 2.5/5 to this book. 

I received this book in exchange for my honest review.

Book Review | Tied Hearts | Vikram Singh

To be honest, I haven't given much thought or reading to the unique kind of love that the LGBT community defines.So, I am neither a critic nor a praiser.
 
'Tied Hearts' is my first reading and a great opportunity to learn about the various types of love that exist.
 
This book tells the story of two guys who fall in love despite coming from different cultures and backgrounds.The book on homosexuality and love also deals with other emotions of life. This beautifully narrated story of a gay couple tells you about pain, family, love and growing up and handling the emotions and the struggles that LGBT people face today. The author has perfectly defined relationships with both ups and downs, regardless of gender.
 
Aside from the story line, the narration is flawless with an extremely attractive cover. I would definitely recommend this book, especially if you are naïve about the topic. It is an engaging read.
 
I give 3/5 to this book.
 
I have received review copy of this book from the author.
