 The Bastard of Istabul By Elif Shafak Among four of the Elif Shafak's books which I read and Three which I finished this  was the most disappointing one. The story does not make any sense whatsoever. She is like a history teacher and this is a history book; talking about Turkish and Armanian people and the challenges and conflicts between them. She brags and brags about how Armanian people have been wronged by Turkish army in 1915 and how they have been forced to leave their homes...     The characters in this book are the worst of all time. A bunch of cynical, unhappy and ungrateful morons. There are two main characters; Asya and Armanoush(amy). You might be wondering who was the bastard of  Istanbul; spoiler alert, it is Asya. She is nineteen years old now the age her mother Zeliha was when she had her. Her mother was a rebellious girl always trying to defy her mother; during one of her rebellions   she ended up with a bastard child in her womb. Although she tells no one about w

 Bad Blood by John Carreyrou  I am really astonished by this book. How a stupid college graduate fooled the a lot of wealthy and educated people. It seems really ironic. If this book is true about the people and events it's been written then I must say this would be my first time seeing a beautiful but treacherous villain. I always thought those of kind liar and deceptive people only exist in movies. But this Prinston  dropout fooled the whole world almost a decade.      When you keep reading it, it makes you hate the central characters of the book which are Elizebeth Holmes and Sunny her Old, arrogant and condescending jackass boyfriend. It is literally very much frustrating  seeing how she always gets away with her lies and deceptions. In the beginning no problem she might have thought she would be able to build that kind of a sophisticated device, but after ten years she must have realized she is kidding herself and wasting millions of dollars of investors. However she kept goin

 Angels and Demons by Dan Brown   Angles and demons was my first book by the great American author Dan Brown. I quit enjoyed the story, Even though it's vocabulary was a little too sophisticated for my taste but still I got the story almost vividly. I loved the way it's been written, the twist was awesome. Right from the beginning I fell in love with the characters specially  Robert and vittoria. They were really good. I am not sure about accuracy given in this book but even reading about them were quit exhilarating.  The whole events take place from morning 5 AM up to tomorrow's morning.       I am truly amazed by the way these authors write stories. Every details given in a very interesting way. During the story you don't wanna leave the book even for a second. You just wanna keep reading one event after another till the last. However I think the ending could have been much better and honestly it really should have been.      I usually do not read long books. But this

 A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle  This  was my second book by great and incredible author Ekhart Tolle. Again I am amazed by depth of his understanding and meaningful ways of explaining the ideas. It took me four days to finished this book and during those days I was mysteriously happy. I was remembering all good things about my life and myself. It was very odd because I rarely do that. I mean most of the time I criticize myself for the wrong decisions I have made through out my life like everyone else but those four days and few days after that were totally different. I had a very high spirit; feeling motivated all the time.         I have to admit Eckhart Tolle has it's own miraculously way of writing a book. The guy knows something. He practically knows about every religion and teaching who haver ever mentioned anything about human spirituality. It did not have much new ideas but the ones which it had were pretty awesome.      In all the self help book I have I found a single idea

 Atomic Habits by James clear    So this book might be first one from James clear which I read. For a young writer it was quite impressive. I am glad that I read this book. For a very long time I had wanted to read this book but I never had it to read it; of course until I bought a kindle. I think it's an easy read. very simple words but very effective methods. Throughout the book he talks about different strategies about making atomic habits. One of his main ideas was that we have to make good habits a part of our identity. So that it can last as long as we live. and so many other strategies.  Here are some beautiful and wise quotes from this book.  # "Every actions you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become. No single instance will transform your beliefs, but as the votes build up, so does the evidence of your new identity." # "You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems." # "You should be far more c

 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 miracles but much to my disappointment this o

I bought a kindle   After a long awaiting today finally my kindle arrived.
