Siddharth Rana, the Joint Director of the IB, is at his wits end attempting to unravel that mystery. Working with the blindest of clues, Siddharth has to race against time to prevent terrorists from achieving their horrific goal-an India laid low by a catastrophe of biblical proportions.
This is a story that leaps across continents, gets to the heart of convoluted terrorist plots and attacks and amazes you with its exposition of high-tech gadgetry and science. It is equally a story of breathtaking bravery, recounted at a mind-blowing pace. At its core, it is also a story about the beauty of relationships.
Relationships that are beyond national boundaries and historic enmities.

Review- "Resonance" is the excellent debut by author Ajay. Book show's the vast knowledge of author about international agencies, how they work, borders or india and pakistan. You're hooked to book from the very first page and you're hooked untill the last page.
Every chapter is ended with the question what next? You're forced by the strength of the plot and story to turn the page.

About the cover and title of book, it is perfect for the plot as the plot revolves around the scientific term Resonance   which is used  by a terrorist group to destroy a dam.

Language is simple and easily understandable, only thing which i missed is dialogues and effective writing skill. You keep missing the effective  writing which is covered by excellent plot and storyline.

There's a love angel too between Aryan and Juhi who study together in US. The thriller is peppered with high end gadgets which a story a filmy feel.

Rating-
Book Cover- 4/5
Language Justification- 3/5

So Resonance is the Must Read book for thrill and patriotic friction lovers with lot of knowledge.

Publisher-Petal Publication

Blurb- ‘The only way to get close to those glittering stars in heaven is, to look at a soldier with stars on his shoulders’ Every time, they’re around, the thing that we see is the bravery awards, medals, the pride, but what we can’t see is their heart that lies inside the iron chest, some untold stories, sacrifices, and the hardship they’ve been through. Every soldier has a story that is unique and extra ordinary
.
A tale of brotherhood & heroism, a tale of love & betrayal, ‘Heart of Bullets’, is about two best friends, Arpan & Sam, and the untold story of their friendship, untold story of their love, Shradha, but what happens when Sam gets hit by the enemy – across the border?
What will Arpan do to save his friend? Will love prevail over friendship of lifetime?

There is a decision to be made, is the life without love, and friends, better than dying to save the one we love the most?

Review- Heart of Bullets is the 3rd novel of Nikhil Kushwaha and one can easily find author's love and passion towards writing. Book title and covers gives us hint about the story. There are some awesome army scenes written by author. Story line is interesting. Language is simple and interesting and is easily understandable.

Author Name- Hyma Goparaju
Publisher- Frog Books

Price- ₹295/$12

Blurb-
A well-to-do business family, whose members are torn apart by a turbulent father-son relationship shrouded in mistrust, suspicion, and contempt for one another- a result of the vagaries of the son's mind and its maladies - suffers silently. Well-wishers fear that Badri is suffering from a mental derangement, and is on the brink of wiping away his father, Siveswara's hard-earned fame and fortune. Unaware of the boundless periphery of its affliction, descendants of the five-generation lineage are confounded with an enigmatic and stigmatizing battle of their lifetime which they have to decode and overcome in order to ensure the well-being of the ensuing generations

Review-
Then title and book cover matches with the theme and content of the book.
Language and Literature of the book is greatest strength of the book. Book shows us the Hyma ma'am love towards literature.
The Withering Banyan is narrated in two parts, present and past which emerges at the end making the end perfect.
First chapter is written so well that it increase enthusiasm of the reader to read  the next chapters.
Narration is simple and attractive.
The negative thing of the book is additional description of certain events.
Use of adjectives and adverbs in the dialogues. More description about the Schizophrenia would have avoided confusion.

Book Review- Second Spring by Sandhya Jane

Book Name- Second Spring
Author Name- Sandhya Jane
Genre- Romantic Fiction
Pages- 288

BLURB-
This is Avantika’s heartfelt journey through love and life…

As a smart, successful, thirty-eight-year-old single mother, Avantika seemingly has it all: a great career as a seasoned banking professional, respect and admiration from her peers as an able leader, fulfillment as a mother, and so many other things.

What is it, then, that drives her towards Rohan, a man six years her junior? He’s a man who ideally would not occupy much room in Avantika’s otherwise sorted mind space.

She has told herself she has no time for love. Then, why does she make the choices she makes? Is it the sameness and banality of everyday existence? Is it the emotional vacuum? A need to relive life? A feeling that life as she has truly lived and felt is passing her by?

However, as she struggles with her feelings, Avantika and Rohan part ways… only to meet again. To what end? Why does Rohan want her back… and why now?
So many questions! Very few answers!

Avantika’s journey is as spiritual as it is emotional. Can love give second chances? Join Avantika in the twists and turns of her story, through her ponderings over the mysteries and vagaries of the word “love,” the complexities of human relationships, and the reassessment of all the values she has held dear...

Review- Title and Book Cover manages to catch the attention of readers. Language is simple but intriguing. Although the story is not extra-ordinary but the narration is amazing. Story is narrated by the point of views of Avantika and Rohan, main characters of the story. Sandhya ma'am succeeded penning emotions of both the character making us (readers) turn the page after page.
Book covers the mordern topics makes the story real. The poems gives warmth to the reading.

Book Review:- Masters of Lygrenn by Arjun Pawar

Book Name- Masters of Lygrenn
Author Name- Arjun Pawar
Publisher-Frog Books
Genre- Historical Fiction
Price- ₹150/$6
Pages-211

Blurb- "In an era dominated by the saints rises a Kingdom where sins are committed regularly. A Kingdom ruled by a noble King but misled by his cruel Masters. Hamish, the cruellest Master with a dream of conquering the world, faces a challenge from an ordinary boy, who in search of his answers finds the reason for his existence. Fire God, the most powerful and loyal Master of the King, is stuck in a dilemma of whether to support the good or the bad.

A story of brutal vengeance where there is no space for the good. Will the good rise to power?

Review- Masters of Lygrenn is a historical fiction and a debut novel cannot be more better than this. Book Cover suggests about the genre and attracts the attention of the readers of all age. Blurb gives us hints about the story.
Personally i loved the conversation between Arjuna and the Witch of Oshah. Arjun has a great ability of story telling . Each and every situation is described perfectly and not in-a-detailed information about environment. For the readers who loves mytho-books, Master of Lygrenn is a must read.
