Saudade: A Love Everlasting

Author: Simran Agarwal

Pages: 96



                'Saudade: A Love Everlasting' by Simran Agarwal is a collection of poems divided into various sections as Love, Heartbreak, Loss, Pain, Hope, Longing, Courage, Self-Love. We all go through different emotions in our life some are good and some which leave us with painful experiences but ultimately what matters the most to us is how we treat ourselves. These same emotions/feelings have been shared by the author through these beautiful poems.

                I really liked how the author has included illustrations and pictures depicting each poem and feeling. All the poems are beautiful and the author has surely depicted all the emotions through these poems aptly and I am sure that those have reached the readers as well.       Some of my favorite poems are as follows:

·         The Best Thing

·         Soul mates

·         Together Forever

·         Yet You Left

·         Shooting Star

·         To the girl who broke his heart

·         Too Late

                Language is simple and lucid. The book cover is simple yet very meaningful and is apt to the theme of the poems. The title of the book is also apt to the concept of the book.

                Overall, I really loved reading this collection of book and will surely recommend it to all.

Rating: 5/5

Dancers in the Dark Author: Ejaz Ahamed Pages: 298               After reading this book, the very first thing that came to my mind was, ‘Is there humanity?’ If yes what is humanity? This was a very emotional read for me. The story revolves around Kalki, her brother Karthi, and Shreyas whom we will meet later in the story. Karthi is a seven-year-old who is suffering from a skin condition that makes her skin dark compared to other dark people. People are constantly making fun of her calling her a ‘darkie’ and some even call her ‘ugly’. This has affected the poor girl to a very great extent to the point that instead of playing and having fun she is constantly thinking about how she can turn her skin fair. Her brother Karthi, is always there by her side trying to save her; and protect her from these kinds of people. However, one guilt is still constantly peeking its head out from time to time for Karthi. Karthi was once le...
