Book review: Cant Quarantine Our Love ( JustMyThoughts)

 CAN'T QUARANTINE OUR LOVE           _ By Sudeep Nagarkar Can't quarantine Our Love is a sweet and emotional novel which  traces the budding of love between Avni and Sidhart, the two main protagonists of the story. The story happens to take place in the 4 year of Engineering college which they attend. Well,  the whole thing wasnt easy and it is never that easy to accomplish all the dreams , be it in the professional life or personal life. Nevertheless, both Avni and Sidharth leave no stone unturned to support each other in the time of need.  The novel had been penned down by Sudeep Nagarkar and this gives the novel the Indian touch which, I personally connect very well to. There are always little lifestyle things we find ourselves familiar with and that makes me more glued to the story. I mean it isn't fun unless you have to sneak out from the whole world to accomplish your little celebration mission. Talking about the characters,  ...

Building a Castle is Slow and at times, Hidden.

 I want my Castle to be Strong and High, On the moonless , puffy textured sky. Let this, in solitude, be expressive to shine  And make the moment Worthy and divine. Like everyone,  I had this quest of having a unique identity to be recognized with. I  wanted a Castel to be the ruler of.  How to do make that happen? All I knew was I won't be "Gifted" with it ,nor it was going to be as easy as walking down a already laid Red-carpet pathway to take you to Get-what-you -want. I walked into the jungle. Yep, that was hard with the sky Grey and uninviting into the night of hardships. It's not the corporate ladder but yeah A jungle ( I did read this concept in a book) . The building of a Castel would start with a single brick yet, with a Strong Foundation. It won't be noticed by anyone initially, I knew , as it was hidden under the trees of the jungle.  The leaves spread  on the top of the tress and the surrounding will protect it at its initial stage. No busy...

Face -off or Sit Back ?

 There are butterflies in my stomach and things have gone terribly wrong and all I could have done at this moment was to  pretend as if I was the coolest and calmest person ( externally)  in the surrounding  amd fight my feelings and urges and thoughts  and sought a solution internally. I took a few deep breaths and tried to shift my focus on the book screaming in front of me to catch my attention ( well, I should have been doing that and catching and literally helping downtown he book content, but nevermind. Let's move on). I kept following the words blindly, without giving a second thought to the important concerns it wanted to convey and I found my brain replaying the past day events involuntarily and perfectly chronologically. How to get out of the situation? What have you or someone else would have done? Can I ask someone ?  Had the whole thing be the part of a thriller novel, I might have skipped the intervening parts and read at my best pace to know ...
