Me thinks

Would you be interested in reading a passionate and romantic novel? Is what the author asked me. The romance lover in me was already dancing reading the words passionate and romantic novel. Before she could say anything further I nodded my head to say a yes. Lo& Behold! The book was mine to review.

As you might have guessed by the name itself it is a story of hidden feelings where you are unsure of expressing them and how it all creates more confusion for you before you finally gather the courage to confess your feelings only to see that the other person was aware all this while and was actually waiting for you to say it first.

The story set in a period when the kings and the queens ruled our country. To write a period drama, the first thing that you need is a good amount of research and that is where the author scores a brownie point. The book is well researched so to speak, moreover the plot though cliché and oft repeated one has a unique freshness to it owing to the breezy narration. Just a little tighter editing would have added more grace to it.

There were many parts in the book where I reacted much more than a reader for the story had me involved in it till that extent where it began to feel as if I am a part of it, and all of it is getting unfolded before my eyes. I loved the way the author has played with characters and used emotions so heavily to depict love and romance. I like the fact that jealousy, lust, love, hatred, hurt, anger and insecurity all have been portrayed so beautifully adding a mystic charm to the narration.

A recommended read for romance lovers, this is one you will enjoy to the core.

Book Review: Palestine Wail - Poems by Yahia Lababidi

In Palestine Wail: Poems , Yahia Lababidi creates a profound and unflinching exploration of the ongoing Palestinian crisis, drawing from his own heritage and heartbreak to reflect on a political and humanitarian catastrophe that has unfolded across decades. This collection, imbued with personal history, political outrage, and spiritual contemplation, serves as both a witness to injustice and a call to humanity. The work’s origins lie deeply in Lababidi’s own roots—his Palestinian grandmother, Rabiha Dajani, was forced to flee Jerusalem at gunpoint, a traumatic event that reverberates throughout Lababidi’s poetry.  As an Arab-American writer, Lababidi is uniquely positioned to speak on the intersection of identity, politics, and human rights. His poetry, both personal and political, draws a clear line between the suffering of the Palestinian people and the complicity of global powers in perpetuating that suffering. Through his words, Lababidi eloquently counters the equation that Zioni
