Book Review: When Only Love Remains ( JustMyThoughts)

 When Only Love Remains

       -By Durjoy Dutta ( Author)


When Only Love Remains is a light hearted story which becomes really, really very serious as the end of the book approaches. It will leave you in tears but as you move further with the book, a little smile will spread in your face.

The story have the main characters as Avanti , a girl ( or lady, I must say) aspiring to be an Airhostess and Devrat, a musician.  Avanti loves all the music videos by Devrat on youtube .When Avanti , being an Airhostess , travels to Kolkata,  she witnesses Devrat performing live at a hotel called Insomnia . That's how the encounter of Avanti and Devrat begins. They fall in love with each other eventually and after almost one year of their relationship,  destiny hits them hard. Devrat suffers from an accident and gets hospitalized , not for days or weeks,  but for 7 months  to be precise .

That time, its description was the hardest to go thorough in the book. It was hurting to read everything Avanti have gone through in that time. It would have been hard. It made me feel how week we could be at times , yet it's our family amd loved ones who are there to support us . The people with us are our Biggest Treasure. Every problem would be little when we have huge  ,unconditional support.

The ending section of the book is really engaging and it compels you to read forward and our emotions ranges from highs to lows in just the course of few pages.

A heart touching story by the Author Durjoy Dutta.

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...

Fading in, Fading Out

  I fade in and out of my thoughts. I oscillate between the thoughts snatching my attention and later, liberating me to drift back to the soothing sleep which says that nothing else matters. My thought leaves my side when my sleep drifts me away with it and I come back to my never-ceasing-to-think brain with another dream. Everyone else in the home is asleep in their own imaginatory world that belongs just, just to them. As I open my eyes, nothing is visible to me. Darkness engulfs everything. No even ones shadow is spared from it. I open the window a bit more, to let in the moonlight shining and dancing outside. It enlightens the room a bit but not all the nook and corners of it. Stepping out from the bed, I turned on a little torch and searched for mirrors (I couldn’t turn on the lights as I don’t want to break the spell casted in the moment by the night).Now, by placing the mirrors the way I want them to be , I could direct the moonlight to the place I want it to glimmer arounds...
I have the same sequence of thoughts. I think about work, what is it taking out of me and where will it take me, and during the process, I'll either end up scrolling or sleeping, expressing my mental physical tiredness. I don't know how my friends are managing this internship and taking out consistent time to study and prepare for the competitive exams and with their instagram stories revealing that they are not missing out on fun! And, about the internship- I try to finish the tasks I have been given; I try to do a little more, learn a little more, try something beyond the regular stuff till the time I am tired. I try imagining where exactly, out of the places I have been posted, would I like to be working. but till now, I have not been able to reach to a conclusion. Give me a few free hours and I will either sleep or read novels. Recently the latest books I have read are- The Bastard of Istanbul , The –Perfect– Marriage and right now, its Girls Burn Brighter - all these nove...
