Book Review - Ana Huang's Twisted Love

  Ana Huang is a contemporary author portraying the contemporary young adults, who are enterprising, steamy, romantic, ambitious and compassionate under hoods. Her Twisted Series is a set of four books conveying four love stories of four friends. Just as the name suggests; these are twisted romances, but all leading towards a "happily ever after".   While, I'm still reading and working on my review of the first book in the series; here is a review of Twisted Love written by my son. "Twisted Love", the book I just completed reading is a perfect blend of thriller romance with a little tinge of comedy here and there. I personally love all the characters and the way Ana Huang has depicted them. The love story of Ava Chen and Alex Volkov is well built and the characters shown having varied traits. I love the toxicity in love and the urge to fight for love in this story. I love it because that's an important aspect of any relationship. Of course the relationshi...

Part 4 - Summary of The Mahabharata Secret - Christopher Doyle

  The only Summary that I've been able to find which is written by my bro - Dipen Vyas.   Part 4 - Summary of one of my favorites... Vijay and his companions were in Barabar Caves of Patna. There were four caves and they were in the oldest cave. The walls of the cave were smoothly polished like glass and the light reflected along with an echo. There was also another cave inside where they found an inscription and a spear wheel same as they had seen in Bairat and there was also a hole on the wall. Radha inserted the rock-ball in it and from other hole the ball came out, but it was not the same ball. It was a hard rock-ball and there was an inscription on it. Shukla read it and said that it is a riddle, the fourth part of the puzzle. The translation goes... "From the chambers that echo As we lift our eyes to south To the harbinger of the Lord's birth In a dream Passing over the Mother Who lies amidst the forest green, reposing Holding within her bosom Hidden for Millennia Th...

Part 3 - Summary of The Mahabharata Series - Christopher Doyle

  The only Summary that I've been able to find which is written by my bro - Dipen Vyas.   Part 3- Summary of one of my favorites... Shukla said that they need the Key to unlock the disk, so all got busy in deciphering the emails. Suddenly, Radha got the clue. She said that the mail asks us to study the Bhagwad Gita, so the Key must be hidden somewhere in the study room and rightfully they found it hidden in one of the paintings of the Mahabharata scenes and it fitted perfectly and now both the wheels of the metal disk were moving and the inscription on the disk perfectly aligned and this time it was in the correct sequence... The Nine have gone forth to the edges of the Empire. The first in appearance is different from the rest. The second gazes over the sea, waiting for the ships to come in. The third speaks the name of the Emperor. The fourth is seventeen. The fifth writes with a hand that is different from the rest. The sixth is greater by one than the other upright. The se...

  The only Summary that I've been able to find which is written by my bro - Dipen Vyas.   Part 2- Summary of one of my favorites... Vijay and Colin were in Jaungarh Fort with Dr. Shukla and his daughter and Maharaja Bheem Singh and Greg White had also joined them. Vijay narrated the whole incident to Bheem Singh and was shocked to learn from him about the attack on White in his hotel room.

When the police informed that the case belonged to Haryana Jurisdiction, Bheem Singh, who was a powerful person in the region and also a politician, ordered the police to file an FIR and then transfer the case. His orders were immediately followed. There was something about White which Vijay was not able to understand, though, of course it was the same name that his uncle had mentioned in the email, but it was not that his face seem...

The only Summary that I've been able to find which is written by my bro - Dipen Vyas.   Part 1- Summary of one of my favorites... I'm attempting to summarize this mysterious and thrilling novel of one of my favorite Indian English Writers. I hope all my readers would be tempted to read the novel after reading my summary. I've divided the summary into parts for the readers convenience.  The story begins in 244 BC when Ashoka and his courtier Surasen had discovered a secret from the cavern of hillside. The secret that dated from the time of the Mahabharata. The secret that could destroy the world and so Ashoka was determined to burry that secret forever. In the course of two years all the texts related to the secret were collected from the farthest nook of the kingdom and were burned to ashes. Nobody understood the reason, except only Ashoka, Surasen and the Eight of his courtiers. In 500 AD Pala the court astronomer of Rajvirgarh was worried because someone knew that he was ...
