Book Review - JUUHHHUUUU

  Title - Juuhhhuuuu Author -Manoj Kumar Sharma Genre - Fiction Publisher - Notion Press ISBN -  979-8888156131 This is a collection of 3 short stories. I loved the creativity and the approach of the author. If you have read his previous book MIRRRO, you would have realized that his writing is unique and captivating. The same has happened here. The previous book was a novel but this one isn't. Each of the three stories was intriguing. The first story is all about an accident and how it connects all the characters in the story, the second one is tenser as it involves characters from Myanmar, Nepal, Bangladesh, and Pakistan but happening in India. The third one was a unique love story that is not only terrifying but had a pleasant ending. I do not recommend books usually but this one certainly needs to find its place in your shelves, if you love reading stories and stories with a difference. This book is available on Amazon

Book Review - Leadership Chronicles: My Experiments With Globalizing Indian Thought

Title - Leadership Chronicles: My Experiments With Globalizing Indian Thought Author - Debashis Chatterjee Genre - Education, Analysis & Strategy Publisher - Penguin Books ISBN -  978-0670098651 This is certainly a book that anyone who wishes to make a difference in any sector, especially in education should read. More than anything else, the book has captured in great detail how IIM-Kozhikode has been steered to the path of prosperity and growth by Prof Debashis Chatterjee. The author describes how he got admitted to St.Xaviers and how the spelling of CIRCUS played a vital role in one of the institutions. His meeting with Tenzing and getting an autograph is another memorable one. Though one may not use the Indian Rupee Note for any purpose other than tender, I too had the same thought when I was a kid, considered taking the autograph from a celebrity but then remembered and decided otherwise. Prof clearly gives a description of what a Leader should be - to be both aspirin...

Thin line of consciousness - The name of the book is actually a story in itself. This is a must-read since it makes you understand how significant you are to yourself, if not to others. I felt that it was an awakening story, especially for those who have suicidal tendencies. All you need to do i to speak to someone like the protagonist Aiza did. 2.
