🌟⭐⭐BOOK REVIEW 🌟⭐⭐



💫 In our society what is the definition of a women ??

A selfless person who eagerly takes the load of her entire family, ensures their happiness and contentment. In return she doesn't expect anything. A super soul who pushes herself beyond boundaries to meet the deadlines.

💫 Lies Our Mother's Told Us is a journal by Nilanjana Bhowmick. It outlines the patriarchy of our society and express the burdens of the Indian women. Statistics show that the Indian women are the most overworked in the world.

💫 This book has been written for women empowerment. To show the real picture of our society, how middle class women are oppressed in their homes and face inequalities at work place.

💫 The author took the great initiative to bring out the bitter truth of our society. We are always updated about the improved condition of women over the century. But gender inequality still persists.

💫 The author gives a snapshot of her mother's story through this book. How she has been encouraged by her in laws to work by often backlashed by her husband to give it up. The book is divided into twenty chapters. The title of each chapter is striking and speak volumes about the content.

💫 The language used was smooth and flawless which made me easily glide through the book. It's a great book empowering women. One can't afford to miss it. We need to recognize the patriarchy within our house and deal with it accordingly.

It was the year when the countries around the globe witnessed nationwide lockdown. Humanity was at war with the unseen virus. Everyone person had a different experience during the lockdown.

  *Title: Echoes of Loss and Longing Through Verses: A Look into Whispers of the Blue Ghost by Pratikshya Panda* In Whispers of the Blue Ghost, Pratikshya Panda invites readers to step quietly into a landscape shaped by memory, longing, and the ever-shifting contours of loss. This evocative poetry collection is not a loud lamentation of grief, but rather a soft, persistent whisper—an intimate exploration of what it means to hold on to the past while learning to let go. At the heart of each poem in this book lies a delicate balance between simplicity and emotional depth. Pratikshya’s poems do not overwhelm with complex language or abstract metaphors. Instead, they whisper truths with a gentleness that lingers long after the final poem has been read. There’s an amount of restraint that allows each image—whether it be water, bone, star, or shadow—to resonate deeply, creating an atmosphere where the reader can feel both grounded and suspended, real and dreamlike. The recurring imagery ...
