Glitter and Gloss Book Review

Blurb

Misha is a makeup artist who, after a series of mishaps and twists and turns, falls madly in love with Akshay who reciprocates her love with ardour. The only hitch in this perfect romance is her prospective sister-in-law who thinks Misha is everything a Bahu shouldn’t be: garrulous, geeky, gawky, gainfully employed (especially the last bit). The questions are will Misha win Didi (and the Kha-Pee Panchayat) over with her Stepford Wife Act? Will she continue to be the poster child for the inherent evils of the Bahu Brigade? Or will she learn to ‘lau’ herself before the whole world and its wife can do the same?

My Review

Thanks author for the review copy. The book is a romcom. The book was like I am reading Bollywood dramatic movie.The book is a light read. Misha worked in an M.A.C department. The book rather seemed like an ad for M.A.C., names of each and every product they used were mentioned. Misha worked with Poulomi, her best friend. The portrayal of their friendship was not good. Misha's character was displayed very well. The circumstances she had to face through and the decisions taken by her were described well. The book contains light comedy. The book contains how Akshay's elder sister and Misha are trying to accept each other while they both have different worlds. Misha is trying to be a ''good'' bahu of Aggarwal family while trying to manage everything at work while didi (Akshay's elder sister) had a different opinion.

Abstract Book Review

The book is a collection of poems that contain precious thoughts of the author on different aspects of life. Like a necklace and its beads tied with string and hook, are the poems embedded in the book. The narration is amazing. In the whole book the references given, the things compared and connected to each other is beautifully done. The topics are ordinary described in an extraordinary way. The poems are the dedication to everyone poet loves. <a href="https://www.bloglovin.com/blog/19611179/?claim=62jerrndv73">Follow my blog with Bloglovin</a>

Pizza Religion is for the people who are innocent at heart, it is not the religion for cunning people who do every possible sin under the grab of religion. So be the part of the living religion that believes in practicality of life The book discusses a new religion in which we don’t just blindly follow what we have been taught and think we have committed a sin by doing a certain thing. The book explores a new religion where eating joints are the temples as we cherish being here an...
