Manoj's debut book 'Mirrro' is a perfect action-packed entertainer with the ideal amount of action, drama, love, and suspense. All that you would definitely find in a Bollywood flick. As I was proceeding, I could see images rolling in my memory, and I really had popcorns throughout the novel. Expressing all the uncanny techniques to resolve India's predicaments is absolutely unheard of and displays the author's creativity.
We invariably believe that each New Year, there'll be a New Progressive India. But will that actually be true? Will all the prevailing difficulties that India is suffering be abolished? Will there be further obstacles generated due to all the scientific inventiveness? The author has conscientiously exposed New India with its current problems and how it hits the general people. The vices, if not taken care of sensibly, will soon become poison.
I loved the idea of how every personality has its own unusual part in the complete scheme and how they add to the entire narrative. The emotions described appear so particular, nevertheless, invigorate you to do something for your country. We need to practice the maxim, 'Prevention is better than cure,' rather earnestly. It's safer not to do anything cynical in the first place, rather than ascertaining weird solutions later on.
There are many occurrences throughout the novel where you discern that the author has done his analysis remarkably. Be it from engineering, medical, media, mythological, or Indian antiquity viewpoints. The issues asked by the roles clearly represent that. There were some grammatical and sentence construction errors, it can be overlooked in the complete flow and hold of the tale.
I felt that the story had more of a dystopian with fantasy kinda vibe to it. So any enthusiasts out there who like such tales, I would for sure endorse this book. The speed of the story is neither too hasty nor too slow, but it's so gripping that you tend to run forward as quickly as feasible to know what transpires. Oh, and there's a small surprise towards the end you just cannot miss! Overall a fabulous read!

Content - On the very 1st day of 2030, a renowned alcohol factory caught by a huge fire. Nobody knew how it started and why the super advanced security equipments didn't work. Similarly on the 2nd day also a huge fire started in a famous cigarette factory and nobody could do anything. A series of fire in various alcohol and cigarette factory started thereafter everyday and nobody had anyclue. Simultaneously forced sex change operation is also happening mysteriously and even police also didn't have any clue.
.
Is the series of unfortunate events is just a coincident or someone sinister is behind all this?Is this somekind of terrorist activity? Read to know the actual story.
.
My Views - This book talks about some major social and political issues that we are facing today.Drinking, smoking,rape, political unrest,bribe are some issues that we are facing day to day.The author tells us about a solution in near future which is somewhat sci-fi and mythological in a fictional way.
.
The narration and the story line is good and imaginative.The characters are well built specially India's character from whom we can learn a lot.The language is easy to understand.Only drawback in my opinion is that conversations are way too lengthy and
sometime repetitive which can be monotonous.
.
Otherwise a good story with a great message.

It took me a while to read title of the book and still I failed. So I left it. Anyways, I randomly picked this book and it turned out a different read. The author has focused on certain importance social issues like alcoholism, corruption,rape, tobacco etc. The author has talked about year 2030 I mean about the problems that people or country can be facing. The story is slow paced and it took me a while to enter into true concept of the story. I liked the chapter’s name. It’s been given nicely like nicotine inferno. The book has been majorly written in form of dialogues form, or day or time wise or paragraph forms. That was bit cumbersome for me to read. My favourite part was part three about captain doctor indo. In that Indo completed medical graduation in year 2001 and in 2002, he joins defence services through UPSC exam. That was my favourite part/incident. The book has different concept. The writing style and author’s imagination is unique. The book is written in simple and easily understandable language so that everyone can enjoy reading it. Overall different and good read.

I finished reading Mirrro @The Weird Wayward by Manoj Kumar Sharma. This is a story of Indo Sharma, who was born in a family of freedom fighters and martyrs at a village in Dehradun, Uttarakhand, India. His father was in the Defence services and he joined the Indian military out of patriotic feelings. He attained martyrdom in a warlike fight with internal enemies of the state. His mother couldn't survive emotionally for long without her husband and left for heavenly abode. His grandmother, Bharti Devi was a very strong woman with immense mental strength. She faced the loses in her life with a brave heart. She also devoted herself to the diligent upbringing of her grandson in line with the values she had inherited. She nurtured him with the noble education, sanskar and good ethos, with an infusion of values like patriotism and humanity.
Indo dedicated most of his time for studies but he was often lost in deep thoughts, desperation and unknown worries. The harsh realities of life, the hardships of farmers, the poverty of beggars, the miserable lives of stray animals , the atrocities against women, and the failure of India on many fronts often made Indo worried. Subsequently, these emotions pushed him towards helping the needy and resolving their problems. But nothing concrete came to his mind to mitigate the problems existing in society. He wanted to become a doctor and then join the Indian Armed Forces. He wanted join medical college in Delhi but his grandmother wanted him to study in his hometown only. He takes admission in Delhi college and that was the beginning of a series of turning points in Indo's life. He faced lot of physical and mental trauma under the hands of his seniors who forced him to smoke the cigarette and consume liquor. This affects his health, his studies and his overall life badly. Later in his life he suffers a lot of emotional and mental trauma when the girl whom he loved gets raped. After some years there is entry of Mirrro in Indo's life. To know who is Mirrro and what role he gets to play in the life of Indo, will Mirrro and Indo will be able to do something to punish the rapists, will Indo be able to fulfill his dreams, will he be able to come out of all these unhealthy addictions and lead a better life? What are Mirrro's weird actions against ;liquor, tobacco and rape? To know what happens next, you'll have to read the book.
This is Author Manoj's debut novel and his writing style is really impressive. I found the book really gripping. Author has brilliantly woven a unique story that will make readers think about lot of serious problems existing in our society and will compel them to think of out of the box solutions too. This was an emotional read. I loved the inspiring character of Indo's grandmother Bharti Devi whom he lovingly called as 'India'. Readers will get to learn a lot of good things from her bold character. Will be waiting to read the sequel of this book.

REVIEW Mirrro : at the weird wayward
By Manoj Kumar Sharma
Genre Fiction
Awards not yet
Year 2030 INDIA , Drug abuse , sexual abuse , rape are increasing drastically , and hitting the country like Strom. The conditions for women living in India are becoming worst day by day , even government and the people who are in power are not doing anything about it.
Mirrro is a story of an ordinary man who is fight against all odds. It's a story about how our society ignores the major issues like rape , drug abuse and alcoholism. How we become interactive towards all those issues and ignore them completely, not considered how they can effect our society and not in a positive way. This book will motivate you and show you that even an ordinary man , a so called comman man can solve big problems of our society if he really wants to.
" The press conference at the plant continued till 10 p.m. with reporters asking many questions to Jiva. Watching the live coverage on TV, viewers were disturbed and in a state of shock and dilemma. Late evening, the police headquarters issued a statement saying the press release was postponed due to some unknown reasons. Thus, 2030 began with a bad day for everybody. "
PLOT AND NARRATION
It's amazing to see how author Manoj Kumar Sharma moves the story from present year 2030 to back in the time when our lead character Indo was born , his college life to job as an army personnel. Indo's love life to the destruction of his love life. Author described all these events flawlessly.
You can totally see in the writing of Manoj Kumar Sharma that how well he knows his characters. Plot and characterization makes this book an engaging read.
REFLECTION OF THE BOOK
According to me what makes this book a must read is the message author tried to convey. Book is a bit on a lengthy side but author followed up the story and characters amazingly.
" Just like any phenomenon in the universe has its pros and cons Mirrro to may have some. It's up to the discretion of the people of the world to choose what they want to take "
What more can I say , I think author just made his point clear .
My Rating 3.5/5

Book: MIЯЯЯO : at THƎ WƎIЯⱭ WAYWAЯⱭ
Author: Manoj Kumar Sharma
Blurb: INDIA @ 2030
INDIA, as a developing Nation, grown up manifolds and on the verge of being World’s Super Power with Richest Economy. But at the same time many perennial social problems also grew manifolds, remained inattentive and giving birth to exponential intensification to grievances. The volcanoes of grievances led to Genesis of MIЯЯЯO …
MIЯЯЯO’s unpredictable fearless Modus-Operandi breaks all the Laws and leads to the out-of-the-box solutions as Weird Way Ward, to rejuvenate the Eco-Systems of today’s hypocritical SYSTEMS…it’s up to the discretion of the PEOPLE, to allow or not!
The Story indicates India’s perennial problems through the eyes of the Protagonist, who always dreamt for the solutions as his own personal aspirations, but, couldn’t succeed meeting even single one, out of his own personal flaws. Time compels him taking help of someone, whom he never believed cordially.
Out of gist of many, only 3 problems are selfishly picked-up by the Protagonist, which hurt him most personally.
MIЯЯЯO weirdly solves those 3 problems with the essence of absolute cleansing as permanent solutions… Will INDIA wish to have such weird, but, permanent solutions to all other problems? Let TIME tell…
The author's style of writing is great and lucid. The language was simple and easy to understand, even beginners can understand.
The cover was relevant and looks amazing with animated humans design.
The Title was very different and looks really interesting part.
The design of the alphabets in reverse way seems something unique and innovative.
A great read in all.
I highly recommend this book.

Book review:- This book has interesting plot but the story is not narrated in a very good way. It is not so descriptive about the events but is just Exxageration of what is happening to the characters. Talking about the cover, it's nice. Talking about the title, it's okay.... And talking about the beginning, it's amazing. But this book could have been better. •

Review
As it says in the blurb, Mirrro is a story set out in 2030 India, where India has grown exponentially to a better position, in the aspect of economy, science and technology but at the same time all societal problem which has existed for so many years still exist in the 2030 India as well. To be precise the situation is more grave than it has ever been since independence.
The story starts with the commencement of certain weird incidences on the night of the New Year. These incidences hauls the attention of the entire Nation as they are all novel and weird in nature. The Government and the officials are clueless why these weird incidences are taking place and who is behind it. Nobody could come up with a possible explanation for all that’s happening. In short, the whole of India was jolted by these incidences. And it was just the beginning.
The book was written in the conversation form and it was idiosyncratic and interesting. This way of writing also made it easier to read. The author had successfully managed to start the book without letting the readers know where he was taking them with this book. Even the blurb didn’t reveal much and top it all the title Mirrro was as oblivious it can be. This increased the appetite of the readers to know more and kept them hinged to the plot.
Mirrro had a very interesting start which clearly explained about the manufacturing of Alcohol and cigarette. The author had transparently and effectively written the debate session on news channels. It almost felt like watching the news on televison. Through this debate the author had systematically brought in wide range of opinions into the story.
Though the book had an energizing start, in the due course, the story became excruciatingly draggy. The author had unnecessarily inserted various details into the plot which could have been avoided in the first place. And also certain issues were spoken about over and over again which contributed to the size of the book. It felt like the author had deliberately wanted to reach the word limit and so he had written things repeatedly. This made the reading process quite painful but it was the stunning the start and the idea of the book which kept the readers going till the very last page.
The author had spoken about two things at a greater detail, it was the addiction to alcohol and cigarette and increasing rape cases in India. Of course these are two very deadly problems faced by Indians and it should be appreciated that the author took it as a matter of subject to bring awareness among his readers. The author accomplished two things with this book, how people get addicted to these stuffs and how rape victim’s family members and friends are emotionally affected. It would have been even more better if the author had included the victim’s side of the story too. And again, though these were very important issues, certain unwanted details could’ve been cut shorted. And the book also focuses on the cases of ragging in colleges. The gravity of the issue was explicitly explained and the author has also exhibited how ragging can affect a student’s life.
It was expected the reason behind the weird incidents would be the technological developments but Manoj Kumar Sharma had kept a twist in it and the story took a completely different turn. It kind of gave mixed feeling to be very frank. And it was not really believable and I don’t know think pragmatic people would perceive the idea well considering the genre of the book.
The character development of the protagonist wasn’t up to the mark because it doesn’t seem like the protagonist grew as a person in the 400 pages. Despite his age he remained childish and adamant. It seems like he never hit maturity despite being in his mid fifties. Even in his fifties he was behaving like a spoil brat and throwing tantrums like an immature teenager. As a reader, Indo isn’t a character I would like to read about.
Devi, Indo’s grandmother who was also called as India by Indo, acted as the constant conscience of Indo. Her character was quite amicable like that of any grandmother but at times her character was highly hypo-critic, for example, first she says “you shouldn’t do this” and after sometime she’ll say “you should do this” it was unreasonable. The character of Jasmi (Indo’s to be mother-in-law) was like an angel. I don’t know how she even put up with Indo’s childish tantrums which was needless of her.
Another bothering thing with this book was, the relationship between Indo and his girlfriend Maasma. I could hardly fathom this relationship because the age difference between both of them was 17 years. Now you may say age is just a number and I totally agree with it but the author didn’t provide necessary details to justify their relationship to prove that they are indeed made for each other. Maasma accepts Indo’s proposal without a second’s thought and so does her mother, so it kind of felt artificial and forced.
Certain characteristic of Indo was Utopian and puzzling because at most of the times he is self destructively drunk but then suddenly he would talk like he is very responsible towards the society. And Indo also points out certain age old perennial social problems which had persisted till 2030, though I agree with most of them I happen to have problem with one thing. The way the author has written against “The Reservation Policy” of India. As an Indian Polity student and enthusiastic, I completely disagree with him because it was completely misleading. And I kindly insist the readers to look into the Policy with an open mind or consult with a Political Science staff for more details.
The book should’ve been edited more masterfully because there were handful of typos here and there which forbade the goodness of the book. The idea of the book was really new and captivating. I really like the core idea of the book.
My rating for this book would be 3 out of 5 stars
I would’ve given 4 star rating for this book if it had not been this draggy and lengthy. It was a very long and slow read but as I said earlier the core idea was amazing and for that this book deserves to be read despite the flaws.
I would recommend this book to people who are really concerned about the society and magically wants to solve all the issues bothering the country. And to people who want to read something new and unexpected.
Happy Reading Folks!!!

The Government and the officials are clueless why these weird incidences are taking place and who is behind it. Nobody could come up with a possible explanation for all that’s happening. In short, the whole of India was jolted by these incidences. And it was just the beginning.
The book was written in the conversation form and it was idiosyncratic and interesting. This way of writing also made it easier to read. The author had successfully managed to start the book without letting the readers know where he was taking them with this book. Even the blurb didn’t reveal much and top it all the title Mirrro was as oblivious it can be. This increased the appetite of the readers to know more and kept them hinged to the plot.
Mirrro had a very interesting start which clearly explained about the manufacturing of Alcohol and cigarette. The author had transparently and effectively written the debate session on news channels. It almost felt like watching the news on televison. Through this debate the author had systematically brought in wide range of opinions into the story.
Though the book had an energizing start, in the due course, the story became excruciatingly draggy. The author had unnecessarily inserted various details into the plot which could have been avoided in the first place. And also certain issues were spoken about over and over again which contributed to the size of the book. It felt like the author had deliberately wanted to reach the word limit and so he had written things repeatedly. This made the reading process quite painful but it was the stunning the start and the idea of the book which kept the readers going till the very last page.
The author had spoken about two things at a greater detail, it was the addiction to alcohol and cigarette and increasing rape cases in India. Of course these are two very deadly problems faced by Indians and it should be appreciated that the author took it as a matter of subject to bring awareness among his readers. The author accomplished two things with this book, how people get addicted to these stuffs and how rape victim’s family members and friends are emotionally affected. It would have been even more better if the author had included the victim’s side of the story too. And again, though these were very important issues, certain unwanted details could’ve been cut shorted. And the book also focuses on the cases of ragging in colleges. The gravity of the issue was explicitly explained and the author has also exhibited how ragging can affect a student’s life.
It was expected the reason behind the weird incidents would be the technological developments but Manoj Kumar Sharma had kept a twist in it and the story took a completely different turn. It kind of gave mixed feeling to be very frank. And it was not really believable and I don’t know think pragmatic people would perceive the idea well considering the genre of the book.
The character development of the protagonist wasn’t up to the mark because it doesn’t seem like the protagonist grew as a person in the 400 pages. Despite his age he remained childish and adamant. It seems like he never hit maturity despite being in his mid fifties. Even in his fifties he was behaving like a spoil brat and throwing tantrums like an immature teenager. As a reader, Indo isn’t a character I would like to read about.
Devi, Indo’s grandmother who was also called as India by Indo, acted as the constant conscience of Indo. Her character was quite amicable like that of any grandmother but at times her character was highly hypo-critic, for example, first she says “you shouldn’t do this” and after sometime she’ll say “you should do this” it was unreasonable. The character of Jasmi (Indo’s to be mother-in-law) was like an angel. I don’t know how she even put up with Indo’s childish tantrums which was needless of her.
Another bothering thing with this book was, the relationship between Indo and his girlfriend Maasma. I could hardly fathom this relationship because the age difference between both of them was 17 years. Now you may say age is just a number and I totally agree with it but the author didn’t provide necessary details to justify their relationship to prove that they are indeed made for each other. Maasma accepts Indo’s proposal without a second’s thought and so does her mother, so it kind of felt artificial and forced.
Certain characteristic of Indo was Utopian and puzzling because at most of the times he is self destructively drunk but then suddenly he would talk like he is very responsible towards the society. And Indo also points out certain age old perennial social problems which had persisted till 2030, though I agree with most of them I happen to have problem with one thing. The way the author has written against “The Reservation Policy” of India. As an Indian Polity student and enthusiastic, I completely disagree with him because it was completely misleading. And I kindly insist the readers to look into the Policy with an open mind or consult with a Political Science staff for more details.
The book should’ve been edited more masterfully because there were handful of typos here and there which forbade the goodness of the book. The idea of the book was really new and captivating. I really like the core idea of the book.
My rating for this book would be 3 out of 5 stars
I would’ve given 4 star rating for this book if it had not been this draggy and lengthy. It was a very long and slow read but as I said earlier the core idea was amazing and for that this book deserves to be read despite the flaws.
I would recommend this book to people who are really concerned about the society and magically wants to solve all the issues bothering the country. And to people who want to read something new and unexpected.
Happy Reading Folks!!!

The story is set in 2030 where India is on the verge of becoming World's Super Power with Richest Economy. But at the same time many perennial social problems also grew manifolds, remained inattentive and giving birth to exponential intensification to grievances. The volcanoes of grievances led to Genesis of MIЯЯЯO…
The plot of this book even though starts off as light and humorous, set in a different time line entirely can be misleading if you don't pay attention to the different layers of complex issues that are brushed up in this book. It provides insight into the social, economical and physiological systems that build a society and what is wrong with them whilst also providing ways, albeit weird ones to overcome those issues. The book lacks descriptions even in places where it was absolutely necessary to create vivid imagery for the sake of the story and characters which is probably the biggest fault in this book. There are too many dialogues and not enough narrative flow.
The book could've been more captivating if the storytelling wasn't dull especially since the concept is weirdly intriguing. The book also felt far too dragged for my liking. I really wanted to like this book especially since it was quite hyped in the bookstagram community but I just couldn't connect with the vague storyline and one dimensional characters.
It was a one time read for me.

REFLECTION OF THE BOOK
According to me what makes this book a must read is the message author tried to convey. Book is a bit on a lengthy side but author followed up the story and characters amazingly.
" Just like any phenomenon in the universe has its pros and cons Mirrro to may have some. It's up to the discretion of the people of the world to choose what they want to take "
What more can I say , I think author just made his point clear .

"Mirrro: at the weird wayward" written by Manoj Kumar Sharma is the story about India and all the corruption in the country. It has been set in the year 2030 and has shown India as a superpower and a well developed country.
The title of the book is very unique and differently written which I like. The cover has very vibrant colors. The title actually made me read the book in the first place. The story indicates the problems in the country from his eyes and dreams of removing all of them.
The narration is very good and a normal paced story along with strong character like mirro on which the title is also based. He is in search of removing all the corruption from the country where he finds that the tobacco company has been burned due to fire.

Mirro by the author Manoj Kumar is another book which talks about social problems faced by countries ( irrespective of any country not specially India) the plot and situation chose by him were quite common though Characterisation was well ! With good naration . Another book on social issues with no solution on it ! The author talks about world in 2030 which is quite interesting ! The book losens it's pace at every interval which makes a reader bored ! The cover is interesting and title is intriguing . The language is simple grammar is Lucid. *@mirrroatweirdwayward* *@flippingpages.official* *@anmoljauher*

The Mirror this is actually a mirror for the nation to see it's real image and coming out of the unrealistic facade.
Story raise the voice against all the major issues and their impact on modern India in today and future.
Author ferociously talked about the social evils like Rapes, crimes, alcohol, dominance and all the unfair activities which exists today. He even suggested the measures for combating these contention.
We need more of such books to recreate the spirit of India, author did justice with the title all though cover seems to be comic but in totality it's a different book and i must say it's a nice read.

This book talks about the problems that India is facing today and will still face in 2030.
The protagonist of the book focuses on few problems that he wants to eradicate permanently. But will that be easy? How will he do that?
The writing is witty and funny.

Nowadays social evils like corruption, sexual abuse, rape, murder, illegal activities are getting unstoppable.
Even though a few people are working against it, but still they are not removed completely..
This book provokes the reader to end these social evils, and also the imagination of the Author is remarkable as the solutions provide us the picture of "Peaceful Nation".
Worth reading..

Manoj Kumar Sharma's "Mirrro" is a thrilling tale filled with twists and turns to hold on to the reader's interest and imagination. He artistically targets the problems faced by maximum number of people which are smoking and drinking. He brings these problems and their after effects to the forefront by the character of Indo. He also talks about the circumstances due to which the result is such. Since the text is set in the future, the imagination of the author regarding the usage of artificial intelligence and the predictions of what a developed India would be like etc is interesting. At one level, the author seems to suggest that even if India progresses and moves on the road to becoming a developed country, the problems that are apparent today will remain tomorrow if not solved in the present. The plotline is linear and simple but the issues the author raises are serious and important. The manner in which the author narrates the story is what holds the attention of the reader. Time and again, the author also uses pictures in between the texr to predict the events which further ignites the imagination of the reader by adding vividness.
Set in Dehradun and Mumbai, a major portion of the narrative is set in the past to narrate the events of Indo's life. Through the novel, the author has made a brilliant attempt to raise multiple issues that affect humans psychologically and socially. The issues he raises are not just the ones that affect adults, but also the ones that affect children and youngsters. The brutality against Maasma is an attempt by the author to draw attention to the affects the victim and all the near and dear have to suffer. He suggests that the position of women can not change even if our country is developed and has progressed. Indo on the other hand seems to be a weak person even though he belonged to a family of freedom fighters as his character and health go on deteriorating till the end, thus shattering the stereotype image of a hero. This only makes his character more realistic and human. His character becomes a representative of many youths who face crisis and tough situations away from home and family and take decisions that impact the rest of their lives. Placing him against a person opposite to his character, his grandmother only shows the strength of a female where age is only a number. Indo appears miserably and insanely immature in handling the crisis he faces at different junctures in his life while his grandmother is strong, resilient and an "iron lady" (as the narrator puts it). Indo is also a victim of his circumstances and sometimes the readers become sympathetic towards his plight. Through his grandmother the reader can also see the difference of the thought process, approaches and strength of the two generations.
The themes the author talks about are the status of women, education, society, system (social and political), the importance of family ties, experience, wisdom and love.
Mirrro, the creation of both the author and Indo is more like the need of the hour, taking immediate action and doing whatever it takes to make things right. Here too, the wisdom of the earlier generation comes into play. Mirrro can signify the more practical and insensitive side of a person. The presence of Miirrro is not for a very long time but it is because of Mirrro that the events are kicked off at the beginning of the novel. The content of the novel is deep, tragic, disturbing and serious. Since it deals with issues that confront the present day society, the novel becomes more of a practical read and a reality check at the same time. The readership is more likely to be among the adult age group who are aware of the surroundings and routine events. The writing style of the author is also interesting and remarkable. The writing framework is of a novel but due to the author's style, the novel more seems like a drama being enacted due to very realistic and lively characters and also the situations and problems they face. His unique writing style and the frequent switching of narratives defines his craft, skill and his flair to write.

The story started with a major fire in industry and similar things happen in another .what is happening in country ? Everyone is scared .
Story highlight these things which is prevailing in India currently , like rapes and drug . There was no futuristic element shown here . Or maybe it's only 2030 that's why . It's a blend of mystery and thriller .

This book is setup in 2030 and depicting how India becominga super power and developing nation but with this massive growth there are some social problems also growing which author wanted to raise through this book.
Story started with a fire scene in a alcohol plant and at he same time two other big plants of tobacco also caught fire and whole nation wants to know how this happened in a series of fire accidents.
One other incident catches attention of whole media when a boy complained that someone kidnapped him 3 months before and changed his gender now he become a girl.
I think author is inspired by our media houses so that all the scenes of debate on news channels written perfectly but some things are repetitive through out so it is kind of boring too. Plot is intresting and unique, Story is quite engaging and full of twist and turns so it makes me go through the book.
Overall a good read.
My Rating :3.5⭐

What a sensational reading experience, what an unconditional surrender to an atmosphere of fear, anxiety and confusion - and to an epic battle of issues and its solutions! From the first moment, when sudden fire breaks out in an alcohol plant to the very last page, the characters live with us and made us a part of the story. I have my own opinions, and argue against their actions, in my head, while reading on in a frenzy.
I can well imagine how shocking this book must have been at the time. It depicts a world where everyone is either taking advantage of someone else or being taken advantage of, where most of the characters are engaged in a mean, petty, and morally bankrupt struggle for survival.
You can learn about Mirrro's murky motives for doing what he does from the blurb on the back cover of the book. I don’t agree with him all the time, neither with the theory he proposes looks practical in some instances, nor with the idea that he can give a permanent solution to these social issues; Yet I enjoyed this book a lot. The story takes surprising turns again and again.
Author Manoj Kumar Sharma is brilliant at depicting a character on the edge, Mirrro, whose thoughts veer between lucidity and paranoia and whose passions overwhelm him even when he can hardly muster the energy. What's interesting about his passion is the deep moralism that accompanies it--his sense of the world's injustice. You get the sense here of a man who deeply feels all the depravity and injustice of the world, one who can hardly stand it and decides to eradicate all the issues with a unique solution.
An outstanding book about the human essence, about our darkest and deepest impulses. The unequivocal voice of each character, the sharp study of society, the weird solutions of Mirrro, and the extreme reduction of crime ultimately reveals that our own inner consciousness can give a far greater punishment than any legal system can.

Book Name- Mirror: At The Weird Wayward
Author- Manoj Kumar Sharma
Review- Mirror novel written by Manoj Kumar has a very different story line and literally possess the wishes of roughly all Indians who believe that the future of this country is in darkness though how much ever we try to make it brighter. Once in our lifetime we all must have said these words, ‘Is Desh Ka Kuch Nahi Ho Sakta' and hearing about the increasing crimes and criminals getting our of police control we all wish for a worst punishment for the criminals and give them just what they deserve if we were in the place of the authorities. This book is just the reflection of what we wish for this country, to eradicate the bad event if it can be accomplished by the wrong methods. The book is written in future dates and it begins with new year 2030. Though a new year, a new beginning it has the worst of incidents coming live and aired on the News channels. Liquor, Nicotine, AI and rape all these areas are covered with different set of fates decided for these threats to our country. The incidents mentioned are really shocking and the new year is started with shocks for the media as well as for the citizens. What no one could’ve imagined has been done to these threats of the nation who are nothing less than an obstruction to the country’s healthy growth. The author has balanced the scenarios very well by adding the presence of media and their debates and updates on the incidents. Cooked up stories or real updates, we still very much rely on the media and their discussions that provoke our mindsets and make us think on the on going scenarios. Just like a single individual cannot change the nation, a character in the book has the ideas and fates for the evil decided but alone cannot fight them and that’s when he gets support and all his ideas are implemented. I really liked the concept as it depicts just how we would like to treat the growth obstructions of our nation. The story is really unbelievable as it is not yet experienced by any nation as such but really a good one for those who wants to experience the change through the writings in a book. It is a lengthy book and no areas are shortened or elongated without any reasons which makes it interesting and a must read.

The author has balanced the scenarios very well by adding the presence of media and their debates and updates on the incidents. Cooked up stories or real updates, we still very much rely on the media and their discussions that provoke our mindsets and make us think on the on going scenarios. Just like a single individual cannot change the nation, a character in the book has the ideas and fates for the evil decided but alone cannot fight them and that’s when he gets support and all his ideas are implemented. I really liked the concept as it depicts just how we would like to treat the growth obstructions of our nation. The story is really unbelievable as it is not yet experienced by any nation as such but really a good one for those who wants to experience the change through the writings in a book. It is a lengthy book and no areas are shortened or elongated without any reasons which makes it interesting and a must read.

Starting from the start, the title itself is very unique just like the story-line. I liked the plot, as it is quite interesting and attention seizing. The cover of the book is also beautiful and eye-catching. So in short everything about the book shouts as a must-read book.
The story is written in lucid language that made the story an attention grasping from the very start. All the characters are well defined and flawlessly set in the story. The read is an easy flow with lost of interesting scenes along with the pictures that made the book even more impressive. I also liked and appreciate the way the author Manoj Kumar Sharma has covered all the self-awareness topics. This story is about some sensitive but important social problems like Rape, Alcohol, Tobacco which are still killing India in the future and never seem to be ending. Though the book is a bit lengthy but fascinating to read.
The highlight of the book is a unique storyline that is intriguing in a wired way. The narration is impressive too. The character description, socially and emotionally are expressed greatly. And the choice of the topics chose by the author Manoj Kumar Sharma and their solution also seem clever.
Overall, If you are looking for an interesting and most unique story in crime, thriller, and fantasy then click here to read the book and find the solution with the author Manoj Kumar Sharma in the book Mirror: at the weird wayward.

When the world discusses about the major subjects such as politics in finances, then the author Manoj Kumar Sharma brought the unique fictional thriller that focuses on psychological and social issues. The story revolves around the timeline 2030. The story begins by portrayal of weird situations such as Booze Inferno, Nicotine Inferno and sexual assault. The book describes the journey of Indo, who represents today's impulsive youth. How his life gets impacted by various social challenges and how he overcomes from all of it. The relation between Indo, his grandmother and fiance Maasma is very nicely presented. The book answers the questions:
How Mirrro came into role?
What happens with Indo and Maasma?
How Mirror's out of the box tricks works to fight against the three major issues rapes, alcohol and tobacco?
The best thing about the book the writing style. The book is written in active speech (in the form of drama). It also has pictorial illustrations that enhances the imagination. The book describes the social evils very empathetically. The book is one of a kind and is recommended for everyone considering today's social issues prevailing in our country.

Irrespective of how much technological advancement a nation makes, its the social issues which should be get rid of first. Because if the people aren't happy and satisfied at first place that their isn't any point of progress on any front. This theme takes a center stage in this action packed tale.
The story is set in year 2030 where country is making outright developments on one side but on the other hand, is filled with various other issues of drinking, bribery, rapes just to name a few. The author through a character shows how a common man is inherently suffering and also offers some plausible and practical solutions.
There are very few books which fascinates me mainly due to its title and this certainly was one such work. From the narration to the plot, most of the things are decent though a higher pace and less complicated sentences would have made it even a more smooth read. The dramatic elements are in full flow and it seems an amalgam of various bollywood flicks. On some instances, dialogues are used while on other narrative is in the form of usual paragraphs. Author seems visionary in his thought process. Waiting for the sequel...
