    The Begum – A Portrait of Ra’ana Liaquat Ali Khan

    ByAnjana Devi February 3, 2026February 3, 2026

    There are names we hear in history podcasts that we forget once it ends. And then there are names that deserve to stay with us, not because someone told us they matter, but because when we look closely, we realize they shaped things far more than we ever knew. Ra’ana Liaquat Ali Khan is one…

    A Gentle Journey Through Lotus in the Tide

    ByAnjana Devi February 1, 2026February 1, 2026

    There are books you read, and then there are books you live with for a while. Lotus in the Tide belongs to the second kind. This poetry collection does not demand your attention with loud emotions or dramatic turns. Instead, it asks you to slow down, breathe a little deeper, and notice what you might…

    Ram Scion of Ikshvaku

    ByAnjana Devi January 30, 2026January 30, 2026

    The Ramayana is a story most of us know before we even read it. We grow up hearing about Ram’s exile, Sita’s abduction, and Ravana’s defeat. We know how it begins and how it ends. So when a writer decides to retell it, the challenge is not about revealing what happens next. The challenge is…

    Evil Under the Sun by Agatha Christie: A Classic Mystery Where Sunshine Hides the Shadows

    ByAnjana Devi January 28, 2026January 28, 2026

    Agatha Christie understood something most mystery writers miss. Evil does not need fog or storms or shadows to thrive. Sometimes it flourishes best in broad daylight, on a beautiful beach, among people sipping drinks and soaking up the sun. Evil Under the Sun proves this with brilliant precision. This is a novel where paradise becomes…

    Ramayana By R.K Narayan

    ByAnjana Devi January 28, 2026January 27, 2026

    R. K. Narayan’s retelling of the Ramayana is not trying to dazzle you or challenge what you know. It is not written to shake up old ideas or present bold new readings of an ancient story. Instead, this book does something quieter and perhaps more generous. It opens a door. It invites you into one…

    Arsène Lupin vs Herlock Sholmes

    ByAnjana Devi January 27, 2026January 27, 2026

    This is a spoiler-free review of the second book in the Arsène Lupin series. Think of it as a heist story meets detective fiction, where the thief is the star and everyone else is just trying to keep up. The whole thing reads like a playful rivalry between brilliant minds, written with a smirk rather…

    Mumtaz Mahal: The Empress Who Became the Taj Mahal

    ByAnjana Devi January 24, 2026January 23, 2026

    When most people think of the Taj Mahal, they think of love. They think of a grieving emperor who built the most beautiful monument in the world for his dead wife. It’s a story we’ve heard so many times that we accept it without question. The marble, the symmetry, the reflection in the water. All…

    The Legend of Virinara: A Review

    ByAnjana Devi January 23, 2026January 23, 2026

    There are some books that arrive quietly, without fanfare, yet carry within them questions that refuse to leave you alone. The Legend of Virinara is one such book. It does not shout. It does not rush. Instead, it unfolds like an old story told beside a fire, where the flames cast long shadows and the…

    The Immortals of Meluha: When a Man Becomes a Legend

    ByAnjana Devi January 22, 2026January 23, 2026

    There is something powerful about watching someone ordinary become extraordinary. Not because destiny handed them a crown, but because circumstances forced them to grow beyond what they thought possible. The Immortals of Meluha captures this transformation in a way that feels immediate and real, even when wrapped in the language of myth and legend. This…

    Hullabaloo in the Guava Orchard: A Saint in a Tree and the Circus That Follows

    ByAnjana Devi January 21, 2026January 21, 2026

    Kiran Desai’s Hullabaloo in the Guava Orchard is a small book with a lot of noise. Not the heavy kind that demands attention, but the cheerful, chaotic kind that sneaks up on you and makes you grin. It’s a story about a man who climbs a tree to escape the world, only to find the…

    Pen Yen Adimaiyanal: When the Truth Refuses to Be Polite

    ByAnjana Devi January 20, 2026January 20, 2026

    I finished reading Pen Yen Adimaiyanaal by Periyar last week. I’m still thinking about it. Not because I agreed with everything in it. But because it made me question things I had never thought to question before. This is not a book that asks for your approval. It demands your attention. What the Book Does…

    Eye of the Needle: When Silence Is More Terrifying Than Explosions

    ByAnjana Devi January 19, 2026January 19, 2026

    Most spy thrillers give you car chases, shootouts, last-second escapes. Big moments designed to make your heart race. Eye of the Needle by Ken Follett does something different. Something quieter. And somehow more terrifying. This is a World War II spy novel where the danger comes from precision, not spectacle. From patience, not action. From…
