Parenting Unplugged by Lalitha Ramanathan- A Book Review
Parenting Unplugged by Lalitha Ramanathan- A Book Review Image from Amazon. I picked this book up only for the author Lalitha Ramanathan, a gifted writer. She makes one laugh with her posts and I am a huge sucker for laughs. Even in mundane writings, I love a flash...
Book Review- Between the Shadow and the Soul- A book of Poetry by Sonal Singh
When something is described as sheer poetry it could denote something exceptionally beautiful or artistic or an experience evoking deep emotions. So, it makes a lot of sense when we describe a work of art or something written in exquisite language as sheer...
Sharmaji Aur Beti- Radhika Acharya- A book review
