Book Review | The Heaviest Brick| Avinash Dubey

In the middle of chapter 31, I was a cynic about how the author would justify the plot and the title of the book, but I was wrong by the time I reached chapter 40.

Protagonist Abhimanyu Kaul was among those army officers who never praised his bravery. The book tells the story of his rise to the rank of Major in the Indian Army.While on his way to his destination, he met the love of his life - Alisha, and, like most love stories, they were separated first and then met again. So..

How did they meet and why were they separated?What happened when they met and how did Abhimanyu do justice to his duty as well as the love of his life? To find all of the factual answers to these questions, you must read the book, and believe me, you will not be disappointed.

You can’t guess the climax till you read the epilogue (that doesn’t mean you go straight and read the epilogue:D).

The writer has really flawlessly narrated the story. This simple yet captivating fiction is a must-read because it keeps you engrossed. The Heaviest Brick is a light read and you will enjoy the suspense before the author finally reveals it.

I give 4/5 stars to this book.

I have received review copy of this book from Write India.

My Ten Favorite Quotes From Anne Frank Diary

I knew her when I was a child. But I really don’t remember at which age, or in which class I was in, when I first got to know my favorite ‘chatterbox’. I recall having a few pages of Anne Frank's diary as our English lesson, which told about her teacher, Mr. Keesing, who was upset with her because she talked too much in class and thus gave her extra homework by writing an essay on the topic "A Chatterbox."

Before meeting Anne, I wasn't much of a writer; in fact, I'd never tried to put my thoughts and emotions on paper.It happened only after a line from her diary got stuck in my head, and as a result, I began writing down my feelings and beliefs.The line was,"Paper has more patience than people".

I am still awestruck by this line. I am surprised how one can be so sensible and full of thought-provoking emotions at this age.

Here, I am putting down all those amazing thoughts from her diary, a book that always makes me feel blissful after reading them.

Let’s start with my favorite one.
