The Immortals Of Meluha Book Review 


The Immortals of Meluha" is a phenomenal example of how a book with a great concept — I mean, just the time this is set in 1900 BC alone is enough to perk my ears up and go, "Most fantasy isn't set that long ago" — being absolutely destroyed by technical problems. 

It's really a failure to launch. We have this big beautiful rocket on the launch pad that I'm excited to see soar to these heights, and it only gets like 300 feet in the air before exploding. It's just not delivering on what was promised.

Now, if you're a reader, though, who's not bothered by these more technical issues I talked about — weaker prose, you know, some telling not showing, a severe insistence on repetition — you could absolutely still enjoy this just on the premise. 

It's executed well enough, and the ending could bother some but overall is satisfactory in that nature. So if you are a plot reader, you'll probably have your rating substantially higher than mine.

Fortunately, though, for me, this is going to remain at a 3.5 out of 10. I absolutely see golden nuggets; they are just so few and in between that I'm not going to really be recommending this to anybody. 

I won't be picking up the sequel, and I will be trying again with another story to enter this type of fantasy in the future. And I do specifically want to end this review by asking my audience members to please go ahead and recommend if you're familiar with this type of fantasy, another place for me to try and get going with, you know, my taste in mind. 

I guess it is a pie thing to ask for people who are just casually watching some guy's review online, but it remains. Anyway, guys, like and subscribe if you have not already, hit the Patreon if you'd like to support what I do here. 

Have a good one, y'all. Peace. And of course, I'd like to record a special shout-out to my recent high-tier patrons Grey Hive and Jordan Bonnell. Thank you guys so, so much. Hope you're having a good one.

Icebreaker By Hannah Grace Book Review

Icebreaker By Hannah Grace Book Review  Icebreaker by Hannah Grace, is a book that's been everywhere lately. I will do a spoiler-free review, so if there's ever a spoiler coming up, there will be a spoiler alert.  Basically, I'll talk a little bit about what the book is about, share my general thoughts, discuss what I liked and didn't like, and then give a final rating. If that sounds like something you want to watch, feel free to do so. I really appreciate it, and fingers crossed that this is not too chaotic. So, here's the book. You've probably seen this book somewhere; it was really fun to annotate. It looks really pretty, although you might not be able to see it well. I won't hold the book like this the whole time, so I'll put a picture up of "Icebreaker" by Hannah Grace. The book is about a female figure skater named Anastasia, practising at University with the goal of going to the Olympics. Nathan, a hockey player on the university team,

The Courage To Be Disliked Book Summary

    The Courage To Be Disliked Book Summary Hello good people of the internet, welcome to a very special episode of the Unlearning Playground podcast. Today, what I'm doing is I'm reviewing one of my favourite books. And you know, with a guy like me, I think you would expect me, when I say that I'm reviewing one of my favourite books, to review one of the books that are placed in this section here, within this section.  I think there are at least a dozen books that I've devoured multiple times over the years and have loved over so many years. But still, when I chose to review a book today, I decided to review what is probably the most recent addition to the list of my favourite books. And it is this book, "The Courage to Be Disliked" by Ishiro Kishimi and Fumitake. I'm not sure if I'm pronouncing these names correctly, by the way. These are Japanese names. But this is a beautiful, beautiful book. And I think what I love the most about this bo

One Day Life Will Change by Saranya Umakanthan Book Review

One Day Life Will Change by Saranya Umakanthan Book Review  The world is functioning normally as always. But we form our own perspective of this world based on our experiences. If a family member behaves a certain way, we assume that many people are like that. We tend to judge the ways of the world based on our past experiences. Especially when we have experienced a breakup or heartbreak we find it difficult to trust people. This book is all about how trusting people can change our lives. Saranya Umakanthan has written a book titled One Day, Life Will Change. We have already reviewed one of her books for our Book Show. This book is a National Best Seller. Our heroine is struck by a turbulent marriage. But breaking up the marriage is a big deal. Just like how we don't know what we want. we have never learnt to say No to things that we don't want right from our childhood. Just like how the mother feeds the kid more than he needs even if he says no. We tend to stay in a toxic rela
