Book Review: Something I Never Told You (JustMyThoughts)

 Something I Never Told You

          -By Shravya Binder (Author)


Something I Never Told You is a novel by Shravya Binder. It is narrated by Raunak ( since people think it wasnt a great name, the  narrator called himself Ronnie ) who falls in love with the girl Adira ,who is staying aa a PG at his Nani's place and the story thereafter.

The best thing that holds a grip of you is the way it has been laid to read. The emotions are described in a so great way. Language is a way to put your feelings into words, right.!?.. You could see that happening in this one. The expressions written were so real , I felt that I could not leave the book ( Guys, I was not up to reading romance but I just couldn't leave this one, after I read The prologue and The Present.)

The tale is about his journey to win over her  and ultimately lose her in a way that he can never come back to her.  I see the story as a tale from heart and regret for all that happened. The fact that it is based on a true story is even heart-shattering.

It's easy to be in love, hard to keep it up.

The story starts when Ronnie has a  argument with the Auto-wallah in morning,  when he us late for a meeting with a new manager, not forgetting to mention that he is a fresher and and knows nothing about working . The story has a great India  feeling as the little things through out the novel when  makes you giggle at time yet , the unexpected end would be devastating.

Do let me know what you think about the book .

The Abundant Room Upstairs, No One is Allowed to enter! #1

There is an old brown dusty chair that sits in the abandoned room upstairs. I didn’t figure out who does it belongs to yet we, the family who resides here on rental basis, are forbidden for using it. Mamma says that we must not enter the room, at any cost. Yet, I trespassed this boundary yesterday, when my dearest cat went upstairs, like she usually does. I didn’t ponder upon this fact as Cookie has her favorite place to sleep upstairs. But upon her no appearing back even after opening up of its favorite food (cats are very strong at detecting smell), a doubt arose. I waited for a few more minutes and when my expectations failed too, I decided to go upstairs and check. The forbidden room was at left, so I went forward and checked the room on the right side. “Cookie” I called out. No response. I called out again, twice, yet the result was just as the first time, that is no response again. I had the bowl of cat food in my hand, whose presence would have been hard to go unnoticed, given...

What if I Owned it ?

I would love to own a bakery. I don't know why but the idea sounds really fascinating to me. Being surrounded by cakes and pastries and breads which are freshly baked or hot chocolates just out of the oven! The thought itself is mouth watering. These tempting thoughts need to be subdued otherwise all my business would run down the hill, in utter loss if I became the prime consumer for the things I intent others to consume . Oh, did I mention to forget crispy yet soft, melting cookies? Well, now I did!  I love to see happy people. Maybe it's something we all could relate and wish to be. Yet, could we  be a part of everyone's birthday celebrations, their marriage or relationship anniversary celebrations or in the moments when people reflect back at life and all they have is admiration of how things have changed for good as well as bad, yet everything they cherish. Can we be a part when friends with long-gone-being-in-touch reunite and laugh at the moments which they thought c...

That's the way I work!

 I exhaled the breath that was captured inside me, realizing that the person didn't intend to convey the news to me yet. I'll get my news.  I don't know how long that's going to take but my mind is beginning to take its troll. I just couldn't wait anymore!  Was the news even meant for me? I didn't know. All I knew was , being patient is the only option to patient.  I have been acting impulsively. Once I decide I want to finish off something, I'll do it anyway, without giving it a second thought. Once convinced, concider it's done. The whole efforts, are therefor, put into the Convincing process. It's freaking hard to convince me to do something. My friends often say, why do you think so much? Why are you so afraid of taking actions ? I don't think I am afraid or I take too much time deciding. It's just, i don't have an explanation for this. If my Gut feeling says I should do it, I'll do it or otherwise.  Following my own philosophies,...
