My Review:
I had purchased this book a very long time ago (I think it was during my university holidays) & I remember consuming it in one go. I used to be mad about those cheeky passionate novels where the guy pursues the lady erratically & the girl shies away but eventually, both fall in love & do absurd things to be together. In brief, all's well that ends well! Now when I re-read it, I wonder, how in the world could I ever fall for such sassy romances.

I must say, this is a riveting tale. A quintessential Bollywood form, Indian show where you don't actually have to stress much on the account & feel it to be a breezy read. Priya's story-telling technique is ostentatious; she uses all her realistic accounts of her surroundings & tosses them at her readers, who can link to it directly from the very opening sentence. The lively conversations give the novel a more visual appearance to the fast-paced narrative.

The title correctly describes the plot. The book shows a funny viewpoint on weddings & dating in India. It uses creative writing in building an engaging set of characters & a storyline. Though this book befits the chick-lit style, somehow, it doesn't do full justice to it. I would suggest the work to anyone who likes reading light romance stories. It's a great effort from the author for her debut novel.

Book: Thunder On The Moor, #1 Author: Andrea Matthews Genre: Historical Fiction, Romance, Time Travel Tour: Love Book Tours Format: Mobi My Rating: 4.2 / 5 ⭐ Blurb: Maggie Armstrong grew up enchanted by her father’s tales of blood feuds and border raids. In fact, she could have easily fallen for the man portrayed in one particular image in his portrait collection. Yet when her father reveals he was himself an infamous Border reiver, she finds it a bit far-fetched—to say the least—especially when he announces his plans to return to his sixteenth century Scottish home with her in tow. Suspecting it’s just his way of getting her to accompany him on yet another archaeological dig, Maggie agrees to the expedition, only to find herself transported four hundred and fifty years into the past. Though a bit disoriented at first, she discovers her father’s world to be every bit as exciting as his stories, particularly when she’s introduced to Ian Rutherford, the charming son of a neighborin

Author: Blake Pierce Rating: 4 / 5 Stars Review: Amidst the cornfields, in the nowhere lands of Nebraska, there is a woman mercilessly assassinated and strung up on a pole, almost naked, with bruises on her body. This case is investigated by Detective Mackenzie White, a 25-year-old woman, who is not only talented, but swift, and with extraordinary zeal and smartness. She is looked down upon and not taken seriously by her co-workers as well as her immediate bosses. She is struggling to keep herself together in her male chauvinist work world, the brutal murders happening around her at an entirely startling rate.
