Book review: The Inimitable Chaos of Life

I received this book much later than I expected. ‘The Inimitable Chaos of Life’ is a book written by Maliny Mohan. It consists of fourteen meaningful, deep, heartwarming life's stories, and much to the title of the book, it is “an amalgamation of enthralling stories borrowed from the chaotic pages of life, which allure you to relive the multitude of unique emotions humans are made of.”

The stories in the book are relatable to real life’s events, and I bet the readers are more likely to connect and bring to life the intensity, complexity and sheer beauty of human emotions. It’s true, everyone goes through the chaos in life, and somewhere along the line, chaos began and ends with us. The author has written and narrated the stories to touch upon human lives and the emotions of everyday situations. Heartbreak, pain, death, separations, and the harsh realities are all part of human lives, and one must go through the test no matter what. The book is a mix of emotions, inspiration, filled with both joy and sadness.

'The Inimitable Chaos of Life’ is a good read and it seems like the author is clear on the deeper connection of what she has written about the events, taken from the elements of other lives. The book touched me in many ways possible. Though many of the stories narrated in the book may not be relative to my life, yet I feel they are real and cannot be overlooked. It is likely to touch your heart too.

All the 14 stories have meaningful life’s lessons, the author has captured the many tricky circumstances that life throws at us unexpectedly, turning it into a powerful message for the readers to comprehend. The concepts, as well as the characters, are relatable to real life happenings.

It is written in simple language, which makes it easier for any age to understand.

One thing I loved about each story is, the endings have a different twist, which left a lasting impression on me even after I closed the book. The stories will linger in my mind for quite some time.

The author's job is done here.

Reading in Quarantine- #Birthdaybloghop

Books are good company, in sad times and happy times, for books are people – people who have managed to stay alive by hiding between the covers of a book.” – E.B. White With the Coronavirus crisis and most of the nation quarantined inside the comfort of their homes, I can presume all the bookworms silently rejoicing, not that the world is coming to a standstill (that would be rude), but because of the reason that we will have all the possible time in the world to be reading and ticking off our TBR lists (Not precisely though). At least we thought we will have all the possible time in the world to read and read till our eyes are sore, but guess that remind yet another excuse of, ‘maybe, I will start reading tomorrow.' And, one would probably be asking, ‘why read? when we have other things to keep ourselves engaged. There are so many other things to do and catch up with- for instance, binge-watching book adapted series, attending zoom calls, video calling old friends to ch...
