This is the next book from those three books which I am currently reading. I came across this book when I was searching PDF books for my friend in Afghanistan. Then I searched it on google, rating was good and also 96% people have liked it already, So I thought what the hell! just read it. This book has been written by my two favorite Indian Novelists Durjoy Datta and the beautiful Nikita Singh. Last year I had read their another shared Novel. It was #Some_one_Like_you, which was incredible. I really loved it. 

Also It's been a long time for me since I read a romantic Novel. Right now I am in page 45. I liked the story let's see what will happen next. I might write the short version of it later on here. Now let's go back to book....

  I finished the book

I short I loved the book, it was worth reading. This was entirely about true and selfless love. It was about a couple of young adults. The story teller in this book is Deb. who is boyfriend of Avantika and hopelessly in love with her. Deb has also a best friend and working partner in their publishing house; Shrey. Shrey is a  complete and confident playboy who used to date and break with beautiful girls all the time but through the story he dates an eighteen years old beautiful and bright girl whose name is Tiya.

   So story begins when Deb meets with a tragic blast. It is a huge explosion in New Delhi. He survives but he gets a strong shock from that blast. It gives him a different view about life, he decides to live life differently and tell Avatika that he loves her every chance he gets. After a couple of days of blast finally Deb decides to go to office which he has not since the blast. On the to his office he passes through the place where the explosion occurred, he stay there for a while in a corner looking and imagining wild stuff. He could not take his mind off of the thought that he could have been dead in that blast like many other people. When he gets up to leave for office, a municipality worker; apparently cleaning the mess there hands him a burned diary of someone asked him if it was his. He says yes and takes the diary. This is where the actual story begins. He assumes that the author of the diary must have died in that died in that accident. He reads the diary and feels terribly sorry for the guys who wrote it.

    The diary was burned a couple of pages from both sides so he could not find any address or phone number to submit this to a right person. He reads it over and over again until he memorized it by heart. Apparently the diary was form a guy named Ritam; which he later on finds out, who was hopelessly in love a girl called Ragini. So in this diary he had written about his one sided and quite painful love story. Deb gets some information from reading it, so whom he should contact to find Ragini the love of Ritam's life. Because from the diary he finds out that Ritam never told her about his love for her or confessed ii you will and he has been out of touch with for a long time before his death. He thinks that this might be his redemption to find Ragini and tell her that how much Ritam loved her and what she meant to her. Taking clues from diary he starts his journey from new with his dear and best friend Shrey who thinks that his best friend asked him to go on a road trip with him. They travel with Shrey's car. They first go to Dehradun( North_India), where Tiya Shrey's gorgeous eighteen years old girlfriend joins them. From Dehradun they travel to Banaras( Holy city for Hindu people) here Avankita joins them too. They travel with a car and in some part Shrey and Tiya get a bike for their-selves. The travel forth and back to many places in search of Ragini. During this Novel I thought I was literally travelling to all those breathtaking places. Their  journey takes different and wonderful turns. It is so beautiful to read all those evens and  scenes while picturing it in your mind.

 I am not gonna tell what will happen next and will they find Ragini or not, how the story ends you gotta find out by yourself by reading this beautiful book, with an incredibly easy vocabulary. I did enjoy it a lot and I will recommend it to everyone who wanna read an easy and sweet love story in these lock_down days.

Here are some beautiful lines from this book. 


"Just as she walked past me, I felt the world come a standstill, the birds stopped chirping, the wind stopped blowing and the sun stopped shining..... It was only her, it was only me."

"Caring about what others think is the biggest jail one can put oneself in."

*"Being loved and wanted is the most amazing feeling in the world...it's like a whole new experience."

"When you're in love, it's meant for life, isn't it?"

"Avantika: 'Do I look happy when I am asleep?'
Deb: 'Yes, you do.'
Avantika: 'Then I'm sure I'm dreaming about you'...

These little things are what make my life worth living."

All the best!

I am Still Here

  Frankly, I never thought I would be in Afghanistan even after three years of college graduation. By now I thought I'd be somewhere far off but sadly I am still here. I am not sure when I'd be able to leave. I am afraid if I stayed here for long I might not wanna leave. Plus I am getting older by each year. There is the matter of marriage also. I am not sure how much longer I can keep postponing it. I am not worried so much about the marriage though, still, it seems like I should start thinking about it. But then again marriage can wait but education can't.  I am thinking of starting my higher education online. With the Taliban and their unpredictable rules, getting a passport to travel abroad is not guaranteed. So online education is my only way forward. I am thinking of settling down here; if only I could find the right person. Marriage is a very tricky business, there is no margin for error. For now, I can start my online studies and after a year or two when I am close ...

Lost in this Strange World

when I was a kid I thought I will figure out everything when I am younger, but apparently, that was just a childish dream of mine. I had thought by this age I would understand most things and would be able to make decisions about my life so easily. It is just so hard to make peace with the fact that I will never figure out everything and that I will always have doubts. I don't want to sound ungrateful because I really am not. I understand that the life I am living right now is a dream for thousands of young people in my homeland. However, I am not happy. I just don't know why? The reason for my unhappiness might be the people around me most of whom are impossible to understand. I work in a very prestigious international humanitarian organization but I don't like it here as much as I should. most of the people working here are insanely stupid and unbelievably arrogant. there is no teamwork. Every single department acts like an independent republic. No spirit of collaboration...

And the Mountains Echoed by Khalid Husseini

 And the Mountains Echoed by Khalid Husseini  This one is the third book from Khalid Husseini which I have read, and the second one which I finished completely. This is a story about love, loyalty, and compassion sacrifice. It is very different than the previous two of his book in which he focuses on the main characters but in this one, you won't have the same experience. Just when you think you are getting connected deeply with a character; it ends. And the story starts to be someone entirely different with a bit of connection with the previous character.          When it starts you would think it is about Abdullah and his little sister Pari; which quite of portion it really is about. But then another chapter starts and a new character rises and a new story beings. In short, you won't get attached to a single character.        I was a little bit disappointed because it was nothing I had expected I mean Khalid Husseini always writes...
