*Thanks to Srishti Publications for a physical review copy in exchange for an honest review*

Oh, this one was full of cuteness. CUTENESS OVERLOADED!

So, crazy and sassy girls? Calm and sophisticated guys? Love at first sight? What's not there to love?

I mean ok, I sort of don't believe in love at first sight but on second thought I sort of believe in it too. I know I'm not making any sense but guys, cut me some slack. I am a girl and I love romance so yes, I love all the lovey-dovey stuff and happily ever afters!

Coming to the plot, the story revolves around Ira Oberoi, a fun loving, full of life, happy go lucky type of girl. Believe me when I say she is crazy and I loved her craziness because I see myself in her **I am crazy, truth be told, or why would I read so many romance books even when I know that my prince charming doesn't even exist! Aaaaaah! Those depressing moments. Ok so let's move on**.
*My Ira*

So Ira is what you call a fun loving person and she falls for Dr green eyes aka Raghav, the definition of cool and calm, immediately upon setting her eyes at him. So yeah, it's love at first sight!! She develops a huge crush on Raghav and then begins her attempts to woo him.
*My Raghav*

Yes, guys, this is the story in which our kickass heroine woos our calm hero and they fall in love and then Ira's mom discovers about their relationship and, believe me, this is every Indian girl's nightmare. So what happens now? Will they get their happily ever after amidst all the Indian family drama?

The story was really cute and well written and the most important thing? It was damn relatable. There were certain moments when I was like, 'oooh! This happened to me once' and other times I was like, 'you go, girl!! Don't give Dr green eyes up, fight for him'. Yes, I was exactly like this, cheering her up. The overall romance was good and the mom drama was relatable too! So yeah, I quite liked it.

The best part of the book was Ira's attempt to woo Rahul. There aren't many girls who go after someone they love, rather they just want their crush to come to them. So I really liked that she owned her feelings and just went after Raghav.

I felt that something was lacking form Raghav's side. I can't really put a finger on it but something was definitely lacking maybe his POV or something but something was missing. And also there were some cringy cliche romance lines that sort of sucked out the originality from the book but, all in all, it was a good and fun read!

For all the romance lovers and kickass heroine lovers and crazy romantics out there!!

Five Things 'FIVE FEET APART' Taught Us

'Five Feet Apart' is an American Romantic Drama, inspired by a real-life couple Dalton and Katie Prager, who both suffered from cystic fibrosis . As you all know that I'm not a movie person, I'd choose books anytime over movies but as I am going through 'Reader's Slump' so I decided to watch Netflix and guess what? I found this treasure. This movie impacted me greatly so I decided to share all my takings with you all. Let's start! 1. Live Big because life don't give us enough chances. 2. Take risks , you never know which moment is your last. 3. Love! Don't be scared of it. Loving won't kill you but not doing it will surely kill a part of you. 4. Take chances! We can die today, we can die tomorrow but we can also make our life worth living. 5. Breathe! Take a deep breath and enjoy your today. We are all on borrowed time. Instead of focusing on making your tomorrow good, make your today even better.

REVIEW: Broken Knight by L.J. Shen

Not all love stories are written the same way. Ours had torn chapters, missing paragraphs, and a bittersweet ending. Luna Rexroth is everyone’s favorite wallflower. Sweet. Caring. Charitable. Quiet. Fake. Underneath the meek, tomboy exterior everyone loves (yet pities) is a girl who knows exactly what, and who, she wants—namely, the boy from the treehouse who taught her how to curse in sign language. Who taught her how to laugh. To live. To love. Knight Cole is everyone’s favorite football hero. Gorgeous. Athletic. Rugged. Popular. Liar. This daredevil hell-raiser could knock you up with his gaze alone, but he only has eyes for the girl across the street: Luna. But Luna is not who she used to be. She doesn’t need his protection anymore. When life throws a curveball at All Saints’ golden boy, he’s forced to realize not all knights are heroes. Sometimes, the greatest love stories flourish in tragedy TITLE- Broken Knight AUTHOR- L.J. Shen FORMAT- E

REVIEW | PRICE OF A KISS (Forbidden Men #1) BY LINDA KAGE

I don’t care what my cousin says; I am not the queen of impossible relationships.
