Book Review-What the Pandemic learned from me

Book Review 

Title : What the Pandemic learned from me
Author: Anindita Das 
Publication: Evincepub Publishing 



‘A hilarious antidote to the pain that Corona dealt us’- sums up the genre of the read.


Almost 2 years down the line and we all are now used to the unprecedented effects of the pandemic.Sanitizers and Masks,Online shopping,work from home,lockdowns have become a new norm which we all have adapted to.


This book is written in an open letter format where the author had shared the aspects of the new practices and routines we are dealing with... (Say Gardening,Baking,Blogging...and a lots)


Inspite of the warm narration,the disturbing effects of the pandemic are also mentioned in each chapter. Importance of mental health and role of social media were explained neatly.


A very short and interesting genre of read.


Rating: 4/5


Best wishes to the author👍

Book Review - The Henna Artist

 THE HENNA ARTIST  Author : Alka Joshi  Publication : Harper Collins A recent favourite of most bookstagrammers ‘The Henna Artist’ is the first part of the Jaipur trilogy by Ms.Alka Joshi. Set in Post-independence India of 1950s, the protagonist Lakshmi Shastri is a prolific henna artist serving the elite section of the Jaipur city.Lakshmi’s grief ridden past life and a younger sister Radha (whom she wasn’t aware of) suddenly creates an imbalance in her seamless stream of life.Does she fall prey to the circumstances?  Shaping a bold and fierce character like Lakshmi in the times of 1950s (an age where most women were underprivileged and discriminated ) is not an easy task. Kudos to the author for framing the characterisation of Lakshmi a resistant personality.I also loved the vivid narration which fed my visual imagination. Best Wishes to the author  👍🏼
