Book Review : Winter Poems ~ Sabarna Roy

Name - Winter Poems Author - Sabarna Roy Pages - 62 pages Genre - Poetry Format - Kindle Edition As the title says itself, the book is a collection of different poems highlight various aspects of life and death. The poems are mainly inspired by the mild season that prevails in Kolkata portraying myriad shades of humans. Some of these deals with imaginations of death and home while others with the idea of loss and coming to terms with gradual wasting of life. I really loved reading this book. Every poem is different from each other yet connected with each other in an unusual way. The writer talks about everything, the valleys, winter, complex human relations and foremost important death. The way he describes death, the parting with each other, that line makes us sad but it's beautiful as well. One of the poem related to death that literally shook me was ~ "They forgot to put my body on fire, on freshly chopped logs of wood, oil crackling and boiling".

Book Review : Duorb ~ Kavya Saroja and Shanmuga Boopathy

After years I have read a Sci-fi book and I must say, this is the best beginning of 2020 with this kind of book. The blurb of this book enticed me and coaxed me to read the entire book! Title - Duorb Author - Kavya Saroja and Shanmuga Boopathy Pages - 256 pages Genre - Scientific Fiction, Suspense, Thriller Format - Kindle Ratings - ✰✰✰✰ Before telling about the review I would like to throw light on what 'Duorb' really is. It means two worlds and DuOrbian would be a person who can travel between two worlds, more like a parallel universe while sleeping. This all is created and the thought behind is of Kate's father John who is major part of the book. Talking about the blurb, the protagonist loves his job and lives life on his own terms.
