"A must read for Autumn/Winter 2025!😊

“Sunny broke the silence between himself and Babita by accusing Babita of bringing him up in such a Westernised manner that he’d always be a foreigner in his own country,”

The Loneliness of Sonia and Sunny is a powe" Read more of this review »

“हारने की आदत बुरी नहीं दोस्तों,
क्या पता ज़िंदगी ने इसका भी कोटा मुक़र्रर किया हो?”
Anuradha Dev

“हमे कहाँ वो मंज़िल चाहिए,
जहां पहुँच कर सुकून मिले।
हम तो वो रास्ता तकते
जिसपर चलकर मज़िल
और दूर, और दूर
होती चले।”
Anuradha Dev

“Protecting the heart is almost as painful as giving in to what it wants. I can’t do it anymore.”
Anuradha Dev

“You asked me why I call you ‘Mist’? Because you’re the mist that blurs everything else in the room by your presence.”
Anuradha Dev, Not You Please

“I know love hurts, but it’s also the only thing that makes us feel alive. You may not admit it yet but I heard your heart beating against mine today. I know you’re alive.”
