Review of Cafe Latte- Eighteen Unusual Stories






About Author:

Amit Shankar, author of three bestselling novels: Flight of the Hilsa, Chapter 11 & Love is Vodka- A Shot Ain’t Enough, has now presented wonderful collection of eighteen awesome stories in ‘Café Latte’.

Writing Style: 5/5

 ‘Café Latte’ is a collection of eighteen unusual stories woven around our daily life. Different from the stereotype stories describing teenage love or idiotic stuff, which seems difficult to digest. ‘Café Latte’ comes a s a gush of fresh wind for those who are fade up with fictional yet non fictional biographies of IITans or Management students. Life bearing characters of Café Latte’s stories belong to different status, occupation and different mentality. The themes of the stories to vary from story to story. No single genre is focused here and that’s the most wonderful fact about this collection. It seemed to me like a Gujarati Thali, which contains all the taste in one single platter. The feature which attracts me the most is vulgarity of language is nowhere to be seen. No unnecessary description of love making scenes, which makes it really a best work. Guys, if you start these stories reading once, you won’t be able to put down the book until you have finished it. The moment I started reading it, I was traveling to Chandigarh around 11:30. Once I started reading it, I could not distract myself to anything else. I could not sleep a blink as the stories and characters had totally engulfed me. I loved each and every story from deep of my heart. Each and every story has such an effective touch that will leave you affected for a long time. I read it first time on 15th August and till this date I read it again and again as I feel kind of connection with the stories. This collection is not a popular fiction but piece of literature.   
    
My overall rating for this work is 5/5.

Review of Mother Sparsh Baby Body Wash

Hey beautiful ladies out there!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Thanks to my darling Jisha I rarely get time to review products. But I must say with her arrival in my life I have also got an opportunity to review baby products. Being new mommy I was curious about using chemical laden products on my tiny angel. So I searched a bit about Ayurvedic baby products. As I searched a bit , came across many brands but a brand named Mother Sparsh grabbed my attention.  I got whole kit of Mother Sparsh's all products. The kit in which I got all the products is quite spacious and bigger one. Every time I travel, I use same kit to carry my baby's medicines and other toiletries.  Now let's come to the product which I will be reviewing today. It's Mother Sparsh baby body wash.  Key ingredients:  All ayurvedic Ingredients like Aloe vera leaves, Neem bark, Holy basil leaves, Olive oil, Turmeric,   Product claims:  It claims to clean the skin, retains moisture ...

She is Mardaani

मैं हूँ वो तोहफा ईश्वर का, जो जन्मा एक हड्डी के टुकड़े से. मैं हूँ वो ठंडी सी हवा, जो आँधी भी बन सकती हे. मैं हूँ वो छोटा सा ज़रना, जो बाढ़ भी बन सकता हे, मैं हूँ वो हलकी सी बौछार, जो अतिवृष्टि भी बन सकती हे. मैं हूँ वो बिखरने वाली लहर, जो सुनामी बन सकती हे. मैं हूँ वो अबला नारी, जो जरुरत पड़ने पे मर्दानी भी बन सकती हे. From the moment God decided to create Eve from rib of Adam, He gave a kind of authority to Man , to rule and mistreat Woman. From the primitive age Woman is considered as the  weaker sex and always considered as a “Creature created by God to entertain, to serve, to please Man.” These few words represent the mentality of Man for Woman and throws light on the ‘dark corners of the stage, where woman cries, when away from stage’, applies extra make up to hide the wounds and to be called a fashionable Diva. Everything has got certain limitations in this world and whenever this limitation is crossed the unexpected happens. Same is the case with Wo...

Holi skincare tips with Cocodew Cold pressed Coconut Oil

Image
Ask me which festival is my favourite and I will choose Holi over any festival. Colourful faces beaming with joy is everything to me.  After arrival of Jisha I took break from Holi for 2 years because of my fear of harmful chemicals affecting her delicate skin.  She loves Holi but I made her play with water and she would ask why can't we play with colours. So after bit of research and tricks last year I discovered one trick that would let us play Holi without fear of damaging our skin or hair. To play Holi without getting affected by harmful chemicals You need 2 things.  1. Cold pressed Virgin Coconut Oil. 2. Good Sunscreen Lotion. Market is flooded with various brands claiming to sell Cold pressed coconut oil but very few actually stand by their claim. Recently I got this Cold pressed coconut oil from brand named Cocodew.  Decided to use this for Jishu's skin and loved the way it made her skin softer and shinier. I have made it our routine to...
