DeAttached: Shades of time
“Not everyone is meant to walk together, but true love always leads to the path of freedom and timeless bliss.”
Olivia, a traveler blog writer, left shaken when she returned back from her Europe trip.
Olivia’s mother, Meera claimed she lied all these years about the death of Olivia’s father, Rahil.
Dazed with all the new information Meera revealed, Olivia failed to distinguish if it was true or just an illusion of Meera’s ill mind - as doctors indicated the possibility that a person with Alzheimer’s might have hallucinations.
To find out the truth was as crucial for Olivia as for Meera’s treatment.
DeAttached – Two tales at the same point in time unfolds the story of a woman who failed in her relations, happiness in marriage that last long, eternal freedom of a man who never did fly out of his cage, and a journey to live a life of purpose.

A beautiful and somber cover with an apt title vivid to the pain of the story.
Theme involves Love, revenge & inner turmoil.
“Not everyone is meant to walk together, but true love always leads to the path of freedom and timeless bliss.”
Deattached Shades of Time is a very refreshing story about Olivia, a travel blogger who was left shaken up when she returned from her Europe trip after listening to her mother, Meera who claimed that she lied about her father’s death and Olivia failed to distinguish whether it was true or an illusion of Meera’s ill mind as doctor indicated the possibility of Alzheimer’s.
I loved the story. The story holds me to the last page. It’s very engaging indeed. The title and Cover photo is best suited to the story concept. Language is very simple. Story presentation and narration are the best, simple yet intriguing. I like the writing style as a writer well managed to describe every situation and element with exact idea like what will our mind thinks in this situation. The ideology of mind thinking was perfectly described and easily understood too.

Review:
DeAttached is a very heartwarming story that will make the readers sympathize with all the characters and weep at the end of the story. The language was simple and woven with charming philosophical quotes. The quotes were used with such creativity that it added a special essence to the story rather than boring the readers with the magical words. The title and the cover bears a great combination with the story. This book has proven that beauty lies in simplicity. Though the story, cover and the title are simple they make a permanent imprint in the minds of the readers. There were just a few grammatical errors in the book which is the only reason that forbid me from giving this book a rating of five stars. The story of the book will surely touch the hearts of a million readers. I recommend this book to all those who want to read a fresh and heartwarming love story. I’m sure this book will not disappoint you.

DeAttached is a heartwarming story of a family, who got separated due to many reasons, first a daughter who travel across the sea and explore the parts of the world and nestled them into her articles, a loving and caring mother who suffered loss of losing her beloved husband and then she lost memory due to Alzheimer and a father, who never got sufficient time to be with them. Does the people from dead returns or remain alive in the pages of a diary. To find more you gotta get a copy of this book.
Olivia, a travel blogger, who was having everything perfect in her life; a loving mother and a successful blog which makes her appreciate herself but then one day she finds herself in a situation from which she could neither move ahead nor she could accept more. Olivia lost her father when wasn’t born and then fear of losing the only person of her life make her feel more sick. Degrading health of her mother makes her more conscious until her mother handed her two diaries. Baffled and frightened to accept what lies for her in future she went ahead with the tales scribbled on those pages.
Deattached, the title itself suggest something which is not attached or let’s say some strings are still missing to make a perfect story to come alive. The title of the book goes really well with the book and I really do not want to reveal even a single ounce about the story. Coming to the book cover, which is simple yet elegant. Book cover does a lot for the story and it proved to be fruitful for this one also. I can’t find any flaw to reconsider the book cover.
The story is fast paced and once you starts reading you won’t be able to put it down, I myself completed the book in a single sitting and I’m in tears right now. Thrilling and really very beautifully presented book. The language of the book was so far good but there were few editing mistakes and they can be skipped.
I do not know whom to call my favorite character because every character were perfectly characterized and do justify their roles. Characters makes the book a crisp read and would live up to your expectations. Book really won’t confuse you because book will be dealing with past and present. There would be many portions which make readers go hooked to the seat while other would make you go through memory lane of various folds of human emotions.
I would really recommend this book if you want to sit and relax for some time, book is refreshing. I would rate 3.5/5 stars. Keep up the good work Ram Joshi Ji.

DeAttached shades of time by Ram Joshi now become one of my favorite Book . One of the reason is because of it’s title . Am really thankful to Ram Joshi , (Banaja Prakash & Shelo aura ) for sending me a copy of the book for review.
The story starts from
'where are we going?'
'Come, hold my hand. I have a surprise for you'.
And also ends with the same line ..
But with the great life changing experience
Suspence had been created very well...
I must say that ....
The conversation between Young Man(Rahil) & and old man is like a conversation between Shri Krishna and Arjun in Mahabharata . Which gives us (The Shrimad Bhagvat Geeta) and I feel that Chapter no. 8-9-10 is having the most inspiring shades...
I would say that one message given by the author is that to never give up..
But I will also say that the every page of the book holds something inspiring.
Reading this book was one of the best journey of my readers life..
As per my opinion everyone must read it once . this book is the masterpiece by Ram Joshi
And as per author's bio given in the book am looking forward to read the nest creation too.
To read The lines which I liked in this book is in my blogs
And you can get some quotes written in this book from Quote galary
Overall I would rate it 4.5/5 stars .

I want to praise the writer for his writing style which was very simple and sober and yet intriguing. A new refreshing story involves love, feeling of betrayal and discovery is here for you. The plot is not so long so you can end up reading this book in only one sitting.
The pace of the story is something needed to care of. I found it as sometimes fast and sometimes slow. A lot of inspiration and self discovery in the book which makes the book little slow. You need to wait till last to understand the complete plot. With being a dramatic climax, overall it was a nice read.

It's like reading another version of Alchemist by Paulo Coelho, simple story revolving around 3 people with twist and beautiful quotes plucked from real life thoughts of a typical human. Make you forget to look for the page number, each lines carefully written touching the innermost feelings of human being. Author change our perspective towards life, show us the true meaning of eternal peace and life " Journey".

Olivia, a traveller blog writer, left shaken when she returned back from the Europe trip. Olivia’s mother, meera claimed she lied all these years about the death of Olivia’s father, Rahil.
Dazed with all the new information meera revealed, Olivia failed to distinguish if it was true or just and the illusion of Meera’s ill mind- as doctors indicated the possibility that a person with Alzheimer’s might have hallucinations.
Review –
Reading of almost 70+ college romance or stupidity love story, this books refreshed my mind, because it’s not the story of 2 lovers, this is the story of 2 soul mate who parted their relationship for the sake of confusion.
However, the story starts with when Olivia discovers that her mother facing the most horrible disease i.e. Alzheimer’s. she got shaken her little world, because without her mother, she has no one though by her mother description, her father died as long ago. But soon after her mother reveals the story about her relationship with her father. How they met, how started their relationship and it grows longer and longer. But sudden a major twist came up their life, as a nation declared that Rahil, is a terrorist. Soon meera doesn’t digest that and trying to find out what is the truth lies between.
So this De Attached- two tales at the same point in time unfolds the story of a woman who failed in her relations, happiness in marriage last long, eternal freedom of a man who never did fly out of his cage, and a journey to live a life of purpose.
Appreciations:
The author gave perfect justification to all the characters giving her best her effort to present the story.
The author tries to give full justice each and every scene; she writes towards the point of the story, not narrated so many things, which leads to excited to read.

'Deattached' .. for me surely its a emotional story as i said earlier to Ramjoshi Sir, if u dont ve emotions this book is not for u.

Grab this amazing book and am sure you won't regret it .
The love described in the story is beyond any definition . The refreshing plot is the soul of the book . The unexpected climax is what won over my heart . It was very touchy and emotional. After i picked the book , i couldn't put it down before completing it.
Every character is crafted beautifully and has its own importance. The title ,no doubt, is very catchy and makes you read the book as soon as you get it . The subtitle very beautifully summarises the story in three letters - ' Shades of time '. The beauty of cover lies in its simplicity . Though simple , the charismatic cover has its own magnetic effect . The narration is very attractive and language is very lucid .
Few grammatical errors hindered the pace of reading , but the heartwarming plot kept me engaged till the end . Do pick this book if you are looking for a refreshing unique love story .

The title is appropriate for the content and creates a curiousity about the book. The blurb is okay and further discloses about the content of the book. The language of the book is simple and easy to understand. The characters are amazingly described, the more you understand the you want to be in story.
The storyline of the book is unique and it serves a fresh story. Plot construction is gripping and forces you to read the book. I got gravitated towards it after seeing the title and after that couldnt put it down. There were some aspects which could have been better, like story-wise.
