#BookReview ; The Three Wise Monkeys by Jeet Gian



The trio—Amar, Akbar, and Anthony—had no clue whatsoever about their goddammit indecisive-careers-and-indefinite-struggles.
And that was because they were born with the Peter Pan Syndrome and were simple enough to be tricked by anyone, including their mystifying girlfriends—Meghna, Farah, and Sarah. And as is the fate of all morons, they were drawn into

trouble—deep trouble—of hiding crores of rupees of black money in secret offshore companies.

Will their mistake of turning a blind eye to the philosophy of ‘See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil’ cost them their careers and put them in prison? 


Or 
Will Lady Luck change their fortunes forever?

The Three Wise Monkeys is the second novel of Jeet Gian. The author is a chartered accountant & founding partner of JCA Consulting Group based in Dubai (U.A.E.) , he lives there with his family.

The story is about our 3 protagonists Amar, Akbar & Anthony (don’t worry it has nothing to do with the 70’s movie) & their journey as accountants along with their girlfriends but what’s most important thing to mention about them is that they’re completely losers trying hard to make their way & in their quest to succeed they face different things which even we see in our real lives, corruption, black money, tax havens, etc. To enjoy this get it right now.

The author is a chartered accountant himself so he knows how the rich manages their unaccounted money, that’s why he has been successful in writing a story around this issue & accompanying it with humour has only elevated the plot. The witty & funny dialogues will surely keep the readers entertained. I believe the book should’ve been made a little bit more compact since readers might lose their focus in some parts of the story, also the editing could’ve been a bit better. The language used is simple while the cover & title are nice too. It surely is an enjoyable read.

#BookReview ; No Safe Zone by Adite Banerjie



Qiara Rana will do anything to save her mentor and their non-government organization from ruin. Even if it means visiting the city she had vowed never to return to. But within a few hours of landing in New Delhi, she is being chased by a gunman and is a potential suspect in the murder of a high-profile businessman. 
The only person she can turn to for help is Kabir Shorey, the man who stood her up ten years ago. Past and present collide in a deadly plot of crime and greed that moves from the cosmopolitan streets of Delhi to the bazaars and villages of Rajasthan.


No Safe Zone is the latest romantic thriller novel by Adite Banerjie, it has been published by Harlequin. The author was a bibliophile from a young age just like us & after achieving a respectable height of being a business journalist she focused on what she wanted to do for a long time. Her previous work includes 2 books published by Mills & Boons & also numerous screenplays.

Our two main characters in this story are Qiara Rana a self dependant young woman who works for a NGO Girls Rock! & Kabir Shorey a determined intelligence officer. Girls Rock! focuses on educating poor girls in remote villages of India & other countries but they come under scanner as an investigating agency suspects that the NGO turns some crook’s black money into white, on the other hand one of the girls goes missing in India who was helped by the NGO. Qiara rushes to India to find the girl as well as gather some information about the donor & save the NGO’s reputation. But destiny had other plans as she witnesses a murder & then gets chased by the killer. The person who could save her is the same guy who she wished to never meet again as he already had betrayed her once. What happens when the past catches upon Qiara & Kabir? Will they be able to get to the truth & catch the bad guys?  Read the book to know all of this & more!

This book is one hell of a roller coaster which will surprise as well as shock you. All the characters have been etched with details & which enhanced the story even more. The suspense have been so brilliantly integrated with romance that one will be glued to this book instantly. Child trafficking, scams, royal family, murder & ofcourse romance are some of the key points which should make you read this book. The language is very easy, the cover & title is spot on as well. This book should be read & recommended by every single reader as it is an example of how a mainstream book should be.

#CoverReveal ; Knitted Tales by Rubina Ramesh



RELEASING ON THE 10TH OF OCTOBER 
Knitted Tales: A Collection of Emotions 
By 
Rubina Ramesh

Every tale has a path to follow to reach its destination.. but it may not exactly be the one we should follow.

WHAT IS THE ANTHOLOGY ALL ABOUT?

What forces an innocent girl to become a sex symbol? Her desires? Or cruel fate? 

Is a lifetime enough—for avenging a betrayal? How do you hide secrets that never stopped haunting you? 

Can vengeance and secrets of your past devastate your present? How can long-buried crimes of yours suddenly raise their head? Can sinning be saving?

Is your spouse your soulmate? What if they never understood your feelings? Can you still live with them?

Lastly, does life give only two options? Live or die? What if there is a third?

In her debut anthology, Rubina Ramesh tries to find answers to these questions that are often from the heart and yet makes the mind ponder over the solution. Or is it the other way round? Either way, Knitted Tales is a bouquet of emotions that is bound to touch both your head and your heart.


WHAT INSPIRED ME TO WRITE THIS ANTHOLOGY...

Dear Friends and Aspiring Writers,

My journey as a writer started after I joined Wrimo India. It’s a group of aspiring authors where all members are challenged to write, by the NaNoWriMo ML for India region and the Founder/Admin of  Wrimo India, Sonia Rao. Along with the other admins, Neel Ina and Dola Basu Singh, she made our lives pretty tough if we did not submit on time.

Our work was critiqued, broken to pieces and then mended again by all the Wrimo members. I laugh now, whenever I reminisce about those days. We writers are so passionate about our work that even a little bit of criticism makes us want to hide our baby. But in this group, we trained ourselves to accept all types of honest criticism. We sculpted our stories and life continued. This happened around 2 years ago.

Then, one fine day I found that I had gathered around 17 stories and forgotten all about them. As I dusted away the layers of neglect, I fell in love with my own stories. I am a narcissist. :)  But then, all writers are, aren’t they? I do hope what I have written from my heart, touches you. Here are the stories of a writer who aspires to always write from her heart. With NaNoWriMo just around the corner, here’s raising a toast to inspiration!
