🍜💌 The Love Soup by Tanusree Biswas

Ever been in a mess so complicated…

that even your heart doesn’t know what it wants?

Welcome to The Love Soup; where love isn’t a straight line, it’s a full-blown emotional khichdi.




At the center is Anushka, smart, independent, career-focused — until a painful breakup shakes her confidence and sends her running to the quiet hills of Darjeeling for a reset.

And honestly? That’s when the real chaos begins.

Because what starts as healing time quickly turns into:
✨ a charming foreign filmmaker
✨ a perfectly arranged “mom-approved” doctor
✨ and a dangerously charismatic bestselling author

Three men.
Three very different energies.
One extremely confused heart.


What I loved most is how real Anushka feels. She’s not dramatic or filmy — she’s vulnerable, flawed, and just trying to figure life out. Her emotional mess feels relatable, not exaggerated.

The Darjeeling setting adds such cozy, cinematic vibes — misty mornings, slow conversations, chance encounters; making the romance feel soft and intimate. But at the same time, there’s tension brewing beneath it all. Especially with the mysterious, intense Rehan Rathore storyline, which adds a layer of suspense and unpredictability.

It’s not just a love triangle…
It’s a heart vs logic vs destiny situation.

Tanusree Biswas keeps the writing light, breezy, and super readable — the kind of book you pick up “for one chapter” and suddenly it’s 2 AM.


There’s romance. Banter. Emotional confusion. Career dilemmas. And that constant question:

Do we choose the safe love… the exciting love… or the one that scares us the most?

If you enjoy contemporary romances with strong female leads, multiple love interests, hill-station vibes, and a touch of drama + suspense — this one is pure comfort reading.

Because sometimes life doesn’t serve clarity…

It serves love soup — messy, hot, unpredictable… and impossible to resist. ❤️

✨📖 Bound by Belief | The Light We Carry by Shivi Sethi

Some books don’t feel like stories.

They feel like signs.

Like they were meant to find you exactly when you needed them most.

Bound by Belief is one of those rare reads that feels less like fiction… and more like a quiet conversation with your own soul.




At its heart, this is the story of a woman picking up an old book — but what unfolds is so much deeper than that. It becomes a journey through memories, forgotten truths, hidden names, and the gentle realization that life has always been guiding her somewhere.

And honestly, it felt like reading about all of us.

Because haven’t we all been there?
Feeling lost.
Questioning our purpose.
Wondering if we’re behind in life.


This book softly whispers:
You are exactly where you’re meant to be.

What I loved most is the tone — it’s not preachy motivation or loud positivity. Instead, it’s calm, reflective, almost meditative. The kind of writing that makes you pause after a page and just… think.

It talks about:
🌿 surrendering to life’s lessons
🌿 trusting your inner voice
🌿 building strength slowly
🌿 believing that the answers already exist within you

The message is simple yet powerful — magic doesn’t happen outside; it begins the moment you start believing in yourself.

The storytelling flows like shifting memories and mirrors, blurring past and present, making it feel dreamy and symbolic — like a spiritual journey wrapped in contemporary fiction.


This is the kind of book you read when you need reassurance. When life feels heavy. When you’re searching for clarity.

Not for entertainment —
but for comfort and courage.

If you love motivational, soul-searching stories about self-discovery, purpose, and inner light — this one will feel like a gentle hug.

Because sometimes, the light you’re looking for…
has been inside you all along. ✨

BOOK REVIEW : Unsent Letters From yesterday: A Story of Love and Longing by Amit Choudhari

Some love stories aren’t loud.

They don’t begin with grand confessions or dramatic moments.

 They live quietly…
in old memories, unsent letters, and the spaces between “what if” and “if only.”



Unsent Letters From Yesterday feels exactly like that — soft, nostalgic, and achingly beautiful.

Set in the familiar, comforting lanes of Pune, the story follows Sumit and Sharda, two souls who once loved deeply but were separated by life, timing, and circumstances. Years pass. Decades, even. But some feelings don’t fade — they simply wait.

And when an old, forgotten letter resurfaces after thirty years… everything changes.

What makes this book special isn’t dramatic twists;  it’s the simplicity.
The quiet emotions.
The pauses.
The unsaid words.

The handwritten letters, railway platforms, old cafés, lingering glances, every detail feels so real that you don’t just read the story, you live inside it.

It reminded me that:
✨ not all love needs closure
✨ not all connections disappear with time
✨ and sometimes, destiny works in slow, beautiful circles. 


Amit Choudhari’s writing is warm and intimate , like reading someone’s personal diary. There’s a gentle ache in every chapter, the kind that makes you smile and tear up at the same time.

This isn’t a fast-paced romance.
It’s a slow burn. A memory. A feeling.

The kind of book you read on a quiet evening with chai, when you want something that touches your heart instead of racing your mind.


If you love stories about second chances, missed timings, and love that survives distance and decades, this one will feel like home.

Because some letters may remain unsent…
but some love stories are simply meant to find their way back. 💌✨

BOOK REVIEW: Play To Kill | An Unputdownable Gripping Crime Thriller | Enter the World of Psychological Manipulation and Digital Deception by Puja Mukherjee Khattri

What if you woke up one day…

with no memory of the night before —
but your life was already ruined?



That’s the terrifying question at the heart of Play To Kill — and trust me, once you enter this world, there’s no putting the book down.

This isn’t just a crime thriller.


It’s a chilling dive into psychological manipulation, digital traps, and how dangerous the internet can really be.

ACP Karan Singh Shekhawat and his Urban Crimes team are investigating victims who are drugged and left with erased memories. No clues. No timelines. No proof. Just fear.

And then there’s Anya — a normal woman suddenly pulled into a sinister online “game” where people become pawns in someone else’s twisted plan.

But the most haunting part?
The mastermind called Mataji — a figure who promises help… but controls lives like chess pieces.


The story brilliantly captures modern-day paranoia:
⚠️ digital footprints
⚠️ online manipulation
⚠️ trust issues
⚠️ and the scary idea that someone could be watching, planning, playing you

The pacing is razor-sharp, the chapters end on mini cliffhangers, and the tension keeps building. Every time you think you’ve figured it out — the plot flips.

What I loved most is how real it feels. This isn’t fantasy danger. This feels like something that could happen in today’s Delhi, today’s world, with today’s technology.


It makes you question:
How safe are we online, really?

If you enjoy dark, fast-paced, edge-of-the-seat crime thrillers with mind games and psychological twists — this one is absolutely binge-worthy.

Because in this game…
you’re either the player —
or the target. 🎯

BOOK REVIEW : Whispers of Kalatmak by Sagarika Roy

Some journeys don’t just take you to a new place…

They take you deeper into yourself.



Whispers of Kalatmak begins like a mystery set in a forgotten Rajasthani village, but slowly unfolds into something far more profound — a spiritual and emotional awakening disguised as a haunting tale.


At the heart of the story is Aarusha, a young woman torn between society’s expectations and her inner calling to write. And honestly, that conflict itself feels so real and relatable — the battle between the life we’re told to live and the life our soul longs for.

But when she follows the whispers of Kalatmak — an abandoned village shadowed by curses, deaths, and unsettling folklore — the story turns darker, deeper, and psychological.

What I loved most is how the book blends:
✨ folklore
✨ trauma
✨ self-discovery
✨ and spirituality


It’s not just about a curse in a village — it’s about the curses we carry within us. The silences. The fears. The inherited wounds.

The eerie atmosphere keeps you hooked, but beneath the suspense lies a beautiful message: sometimes reclaiming your voice means confronting buried truths you were never ready to face.


The writing feels immersive and cinematic — you can almost feel the desert heat, the stillness, the whispers in the wind. It’s haunting, yet meaningful.

If you enjoy stories that mix spirituality with mystery and emotional depth — something that makes you think and feel — this one will stay with you long after the last page.

Because sometimes the scariest ghosts aren’t outside…
they’re the ones we’ve hidden within. 🌾✨

BOOK REVIEW: AN OAK TREE IN THE GARDEN by Narendra Murty

“Why did Bodhidharma come to China?”

“An oak tree in the garden.”

Confused?
Good.
Because that’s exactly where Zen begins.

This is my first book by Narendra Murty, and what a fascinating introduction it has been.



The book is a collection of thirty short Zen-inspired stories told from the perspective of monks and masters. But don’t expect straightforward lessons or logical answers. Instead, each story gently shakes your intellect, breaks your need for reasoning, and pushes you toward something deeper — awareness.

What I loved most is how every story feels simple on the surface, yet leaves you thinking for hours. Sometimes puzzled. Sometimes smiling. Sometimes quietly reflective.

 Zen doesn’t explain life.
It makes you experience it.

 Murty’s writing style is crisp, minimal, and beautifully fluid. There’s no unnecessary complexity, yet the meaning runs incredibly deep. The flow keeps you engaged, and just when you think you’ve understood a story, it flips your perspective.


This isn’t a book you rush through.
It’s a book you pause with.

It challenges the constant need to “figure everything out” and instead teaches you to simply be. To observe. To accept. To breathe.

If you enjoy spirituality, mindfulness, or books that question logic and open the doors to inner stillness, this one is a quiet gem.

Because sometimes, enlightenment isn’t an answer.
It’s just… an oak tree in the garden. 🌿

Connected Minds: Relationships and Communication by Dr. Mayur Jethva

In a world where conversations never stop, true connection has quietly become rare.

We speak. We scroll. We reply.
But how often do we really feel understood?




Connected Minds: Relationships and Communication by Dr. Mayur Jethva is one of those books that doesn’t shout for your attention—it gently holds it. And then slowly, it starts holding a mirror.


This book dives into the why behind our relationships—the invisible threads that shape how we bond, trust, pull away, or misunderstand each other. Blending psychology, science, and everyday human moments, it explains connection in a way that feels less clinical and more… human.

What stood out to me most is how the book decodes things we experience daily but rarely pause to question:


– Why certain people instantly feel safe
– Why some conversations go wrong despite good intentions
– How attachment styles quietly dictate adult relationships
– How unspoken biases sabotage closeness
– Why empathy isn’t just a trait, but a skill
– And how boundaries can be firm without being cruel


Each chapter flows like a conversation—with stories, examples, and practical takeaways that make complex psychology feel accessible and deeply relatable. It doesn’t just explain people; it helps you understand yourself within your relationships.

What makes Connected Minds powerful is its focus on awareness. Awareness of how we listen. How we react. How we assume. And how often connection breaks—not because of lack of love, but lack of understanding.


This isn’t a book about fixing people.
It’s about bridging gaps.
Between intention and impact.
Between speaking and being heard.
Between being around people and truly connecting with them.


If you’ve ever felt misunderstood, struggled with communication, or simply wanted deeper, more meaningful relationships—this book quietly guides you there.

Because when you understand how minds connect,
you don’t just communicate better—
you relate better.
And that changes everything.
