You Are Mine by Miranda Rijks is a spell binding thriller which I managed to read in a span of two days. I doubt if it would have taken me even that much time, had I not been a mother of two and a little unwell. This is a story about obsessive love. Rupert, rather Sir Rupert has spent a long time, looking for a perfect woman to marry and eventually manages to find one. Now all that remains is to make her see how alike they are and make her realise that she has to love him completely with her heart, body and soul. And he will not let anything stand in the way of fulfilling his.... their destiny. You Are Mine is gripping and engaging as you really don't know what to expect rom the next few pages. I had recently seen the very brilliant series "You" on Netflix and that kind of made my imagination even more proactive in conceiving the scenes as the story progressed, though both- this book and the series (also based on a psychological thriller) are very different from each

If you are a fan of the romance genre then chances are quite high that you will recognise the name of the author of Our Song, Milan Vohra. An advertising professional, Vohra is India's first Mills & Boons author. Our Song is a love story that takes place in Bengaluru on no, not an IT campus but in the corridors, park and offices of a Pharma company. Ragini is a struggling music composer who has been hired by Andrew Arya, the young gun heading this Pharma company, to compose a song for their 25th anniversary. Their is chemistry of course, between Ragini and Andrew, and also a sort of shared past- they went to the same school where he was her senior and she had a crush on him. Andrew tries to hide the immense attraction that he feels under the guise of the need to keep an eye on Ragini and makes her come to his offices in order to interact and observe the people behind the company to be able to write the song. Ragini though feels hugely attracted to Andrew, is (at the beginnin

A fast paced thriller that is going to make your week or weekend (depending on the choice of the day you pick it up on)! So, it is well established by now that I am a thriller's fan. I have also managed to ascertain that sometimes it is destiny which leads me to read some books. This past month has been quite a thing for me. First, both my kids fell ill, taking turns at keeping me on my toes 24X7 and then a day before Diwali my husband came down with an infection which looked like a common cold but ended up being as troublesome as Pneumonia. So there I was before and through this, going from book to book and singing 'Kahin lagta nahi dil, main kya karoon'. Let me explain- I had started no less than 5 books from varying genres and wasn't feeling happy or satisfied (if you know what I mean then a virtual high-five) with any one of them. And, I had also started to spend more time than was usual on social media (hospital waiting rooms do that to you, no?) Wel

What an excellent and important this little book is! This is a book that I would gladly recommend to all the grown ups and all the children alike because everyone worries and mostly no one knows how to deal with it. The author not only addresses the many guises that often the smallest of worries dons on and comes knocking or to use a phrase from the book 'has no manners and barges in'. I loved the way the author has given everyday causes and symptoms that any child might be able to relate to, to explain what does a worry feel like, how it can manifest itself as a physical ailment or a mental block and how to conquer it. The fact that Wolff and Savitz have not only spoken about how and what causes worry-a bully, first day of school, fear of sleeping alone to name a few- but also the ways in which it can be tackled, makes the book a keeper to be reached out for when you are feeling a little lost as a parent or even as an individual. The illustrations on my Kindle probably
