Book Review of The Untold Tales: Love and other Demons

My take on The Untold Tales by Author Paras

You think your pain and your heartbreak are unprecedented in the history of the world, but then you read. It was books that taught me that the things that tormented me most were the very things that connected me with all the people who were alive, who had ever been alive. My desire of reading instigates me often to read because I find solace in that. So this time, I came across Love and Other Demons: The Untold Tales, written by Paras.

The name itself lured me to explore it. I was inquisitive to know as to how Love could be associated to something demonic? And let me just tell you, I was flabbergasted. The author has so minutely pelted out words and phrases, etched the same into stories that connect very much to our own lives.

In one story author talks about love, in the other separation. One talks about the mere grief of losing a love one while the other says about stormy relationships between friends. A compilation of 13 stories, Paras's book is a fruition of human sentiments. It is a roller coaster ride that will make you nostalgic, make you cry and leave you happy, all at one place.

The flow of the stories is on point, titles are apt and the publisher Lab Academia has done a wonderfully well job of putting it up so nicely into a book.

It indeed proved to be a worth read for me and I would highly recommend it to everyone.

The book is available in paperback and kindle format on Amazon:

Book Review of Making A Poem

Book Review About the Book Making A Poem is a powerful affecting collection of poetry that sheds a fascinating light upon the writing process and poet’s personal aesthetics. These are eloquent pieces where the poet displays a confident command of the poetic form to bring his ideas and observations to life. The pieces that ponder the reality of poetic expression are perhaps most fascinating. Their reflexivity results in a most engaging collection of poems. Making A Poem is an intuitive, thoughtful and creative pieces that work together as a cohesive collection. Review: What first caught my attention is the cover of the book having poet’s poise image with intense black background. What I liked the most about this book is, usage of lucid language and short verses. The poet has adroitly used figures of speech, his words seems to come alive. The beauty of these poems are, most of them are open ended for readers to draw the conclusion further. Categorized into different stage
