Book Review: Trending in Love by Pankaj Dubey

About the Book
Sanam is a carefree, but headstrong young girl. A spat with a politician's son pushes her to take up a big challenge-to become an IAS. At the same time, a small-town boy, Aamir, is nudged into studying for the civil services too. Their hard work pays off when both become rank holders.
And soon their lives come together at the IAS Training Academy, Mussoorie. Love blossoms, but when they decide to spend their lives together, all hell breaks loose. Their religious difference becomes a reason for clashes between the two communities, social media explodes and things take a dangerous turn.
It seems hate has triumphed over love. What will be Sanam and Aamir's fate?
A heady mix of dreams and desire, this is a story of undying love in the face of our society's most dangerous beliefs.
My Take on the Book
Trending in Love by Pankaj Dubey is a fast-paced romantic novel about Sanam, a young and bright girl, and Amir from Kupwara who has a happy desk job. Both the characters find themselves preparing for the IAS entrance exam, and they both have their agenda in securing the position.
After the exam, Amir and Sanam secured a position, they ended together at a training academy in Mussorie, and that’s where the chemistry unfolds. From love blooming to the relationship taking a turn when it involves family, politics, and religion. I won’t be revealing much about the plot line, but all I can say is that it is a gripping read which will surely keep you engrossed. 
The book is written in simple language thus you will be able to catch up with the story. If you are someone who enjoys a good romance novel, then you will love this one.
The author has created the characters in a very interesting way, and the plot is perfectly crafted. Usage of strong vocabulary and language is a plus point of the book.
What attracted me to this book was the fact that the book will soon be turned into a web series, and I am a huge fan of books adapted for screen work. Now I will be patiently waiting for the series and will judge how much justice it has done to the book. In the meantime, you can pick a copy today to explore the story which involves politics, romance and social issues, a mix of all this makes the perfect read when you are quarantined.

Book Review: The L-word By Aastha Atray Banan

photo credit: Shethepeople Blurb In a world where a left swipe means you could be alone and sexless forever and taking a chance could mean you find ‘The One’, the question we often find ourselves asking is, what is love? When romance writer Aastha Atray Banan found herself getting asked questions about the daily struggles of love she decided to start a podcast, Love Aaj Kal, that dealt with everything about love and relationships. The L-Word is about modern love: from ghosting, polyamory, love in the times of social media to more every-day problems like dealing with heartbreak, infidelity and getting out of toxic relationships. Love can be many things – sometimes intimidating, frustrating, and often exhilarating – this book tells you how to make sense of it. My Take On The Book The L Word- Love, Lust, and Everything In-Between , I guess the title is self-explanatory of what the book is about.
