Book Review: I took you... To Keep You Safe (JustMyThoughts)

I  took you... To Keep You Safe, written by Kate Bradley is one of the best plot twister and page turner from all my previous reads. There were moments where I just couldn't go forward with the story, trying to process all that happened over just a few lines on the page. Within the short span, all the thought process was forced to pickup a different reality. 

Destiny, a 15 years old student of Jenni,  seems to be under theat of kidnappers who are ready to take her away. All the happenings come under the notice of Jenni and being an ex- army person, she take it to be her responsibilty to save Destiny. That was the very point where she knew too, that her life would never stay the same and , it did change, not for the better. Destiny was in danger, and needed help. Jenni did help but the things didn't turn out the way we think the ideal way they should.



Jenni wanted to save Destiny and as she goes forward with her tasks, she is met with the darker wold Destiny was a part of.  Destiny seemed to under threat, which wasn't the complete truth.  The whole thing took Jenni away from her daily job, her dad , her boss and her peace. The interference by Jenni on Destiny's life ruined the trajectory of Destiny's life in a way which wasn't appreciated by the destiny.

Was Jenni a hero or a villain in the story ?

I wish I could have spoiled the whole plot here, but that would ruin the thrill of going through the book itself.

Happy reading.

Thank you.

ANU.

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,...
