Rating : 5/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

What a brilliant book! What a captivating read! Sarah J Maas has propelled herself into the cohort of my favorite authors with this shining jewel. Never have I been so shocked out of my wits or had my breath completely knocked out. I just couldn’t get through to the next page without gasping and my heart pounding.

Humans. Magical Faeries. Evil witches. Spellbinding potions. Ancient curses. Eternal love. Irresistible attraction and seduction. Life altering games. What is there not to like ? What is there not to swoon over? There is not a ounce of boredom in this triangle love story and battle for freedom. This is fantasy at its best!

A war almost 500 years ago between faeries and humans .. their lands segregated to east and west. Fearies are split into seven kingdoms each ruled by a high lord. A hundred years ago, they are brought through magic and trickery,under the control of a Queen. One high lord refuses her advances and to submit. He is put under a curse from which he can be rescued only by a brave human. Enter Feyre, the brave warrior human girl whom the high lord has been searching for a half century. He steals her away from her family and they both fall deeply, irrevocably in love. Then comes the moment of disclosure of his story to Feyre. The rest of the story is filled with enthralling and engrossing games to rescue his life, kingdom and the rest of the fearie race from the queen. Throw into the mix a dark, seductive, handsome high lord of darkness who helps Feyre for his own personal interests. There is danger and there is love. There is bravery and there is madness. There is magic and there are dionystic type rituals(Greek Mythology) ,Lord Krishna type romantic Raasa Leela dances(Hindu Mythology) which take one’s breath away! Highly Recommend. Never been so thrilled to reach an end. My fingers are tingling to reach for the sequel in my satchel and its nearing midnight! Know my state of mind thus! 🙂 Happy reading, fellow readers !!

The Thorn Birds by Colleen McCullough book review

The Thorn Birds By Colleen McCullough Rating 3.75/5 Genres : Australia, Vatican city, Cardinal, Romance, Generational fiction, Historical fiction Bah. I dont know. I felt this is just an ok sort of book. The only aspect that stirred me and struck a chord with me is the all encompassing, soul level love between Maggie and Father Ralph de Bricassart. Everything else - no matter how juicy,emotional or dramatic just failed to make an impact. The story covers the lives of three generations of women of the Cleary/Armstrong family line - their cherished dreams and dashed hopes, their hurts and heartbreaks over unrequited, failed loves..their finally getting what they wanted but it not being fully enough.. well, it sounds and feels like a roller coaster. And whats more..there is plenty of repeat in the events of their lives..what has happened to the mother, happens to the daughter and so on.. Coming to the story. Maggie Cleary is brought up with a bunch of brothers in a very p

Valley of the Dolls by Jacqueline Susan

Valley of the Dolls (1966) by Jacqueline Susann 510 pages (Kindle Digital Edition) Genres : Historical Fiction, Romance, Philosophical, Psychological Fiction Rating : 5/5 🥰🥰🥰 One of the best books I have ever read. :) Eerie, omnious and potent with nerve wracking energy. Cannot delineate this story into one subject - this is a concoction dealing with elements of love, romance, betrayal, loss, disillusionment, mental illness, mystery, cancer and deeply engaging,amazing writing talent of Susann. It kept me hooked through out as I traveled in the shoes of three women who bond during their struggling years for fame and success and break apart once they have reached their pinnacles of success! This story exposed the vacancy and the void felt even by the most coveted and successful people. The journey to the top is always a lonely journey and even more so when one reaches the spot. The three women main characters - Anne, Neely, Jennifer - have got what it takes t
