Book Review: The Twits by Roald Dahl

While ascending to the top of my bookshelf,I found this book sleeping under a layer of thousand dust particles & adultish ignorance,so I thought I should read it again to relive my childlike thoughts.❤

Roald Dahl's ferocious antipathy against the hairy faces is witnessed at the beginning of the book. Maybe that's why,he never grew one! (HAHA!) The author introduces us to Mr. Twit and Mrs.Twit.

Mr.Twit was a man of sixty and he had this big beard,probably to let people consider him to be a "wise and grand" man.

The author didn't fail to expound why he hated beards in the first place. And Blake's illustrations will definitely make it easy to make you feel the same .

Mrs. Twit bears ugly thoughts and she was no way better than Mr.Twit. Probably,that's why they're married!(😬).

Could you just imagine that Mrs. Twit actually mixed the worms with the spaghetti on her husband's plate.(HAHA!I KNOW EVERYTIME YOU EAT SPAGHETTI FROM NOW,YOU'LL CURSE HER.)

Bury yourself in this book to know what a terrible idea Mr.Twit plotted against her!

Roald Dahl remarkably proceeds to deposit the next plot in the minds of the readers.Playing mean jokes on each other is nothing to them,when they love catching birds and enjoy having Bird Pie for supper on Wednesdays.This is not the end.They made sure that their caged monkeys do everything upside down. And now,the monkeys and the birds wanted to escape,after taking an eye for an eye.

Roald Dahl hints at teamwork. When people work together towards a same goal,they are bound to succeed.

PERSONAL OPINION: I highly recommend you to read the book to witness how they wreak vengeance on Mr. and Mrs. Twit. Will they succeed in doing so?
It is a quick,easy and pleasant read. I'd give this a five out of five star rating(🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟),'cause I found no shortcomings in this book.

I'm sure the little kid in you will end up loving this light-read!❤️

Book Review: Decisions of Heart by Saurabh Pant

🔴DECISIONS OF HEART🔴 RATINGS:⭐⭐⭐⭐💫(4.5/5) Love demands no barriers. It absolutely has no boundaries. There is no horizon. The thin line of the idea of love forms a slight barrier to the real essence of love. The book is a beautiful work that lets you feel. You may end up breathing the thin air of love and see yourself standing amidst the forest of love. The book lets you reminisce those memories,when you were surrounded with the feeling of love. The poems talk about how everything made no sense when we poured our hearts out infront of our loved ones. Even silence spoke. And it screamed. It said that "Yes,we're in love." And now, it's just a memory of cold, wintry nights on summer days. The thread of love was strong enough to hide those little secrets we shared once. The beauty of each poem lies in the days that glowed once. With the passage of time, it faded. Gradually. But the love continues climbing onto each mountain we see. The poems lets you re-visit those da...

Book Review-Burning Asia:The Present Image by Saurabh Pant

BURNING ASIA:THE PRESENT IMAGE Ratings:⭐⭐⭐⭐💫(4.5/5) The title 'Burning Asia' shook me to the core,as if the continent is falling apart. The subtitle points out that this is not only a poetry collection,but also a critical account in verses about what Asia went through.This highlights the present image of world's largest continent,Asia. The feeling of impending doom stays throughout the book. Humans lay hold of dreadful actions which brought gruesome consequences.A war of extremes leads to nothing,but destruction. Violence and terror are inscribed on these pages. A sense of fear is generated throughout. What seems to be words suspended under a bar of verses gradually take you on a rollercoaster ride of emotions. Do we, as citizens know what's coming next or what's going to happen to the world we live in ? We feel caged. And the culprits still rejoice in the open. This has been going on a continual basis.How long shall we live on the basis of mere conjectures? The a...

Book Review: What Could Have Been by Luke Melia

WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN This review is a part of Outset Books Review Program. The title What Could Have Been by Luke Melia itself suggests that we all tend to resort to some sort of a illusory perception, a dreamlike image, or a mirage which runs in parallel with the world we live in--- the world where the persistent boredom of our dreary and futile existence conceals the 'other' world that should have been and could have been just ours. On a holiday in Greece, Dale and Suzanne plan to go on a boat trip, where the former happens to meet Heather. However, as the "tips of her fingers brushed the palm of his hand", everything went "pitch black". The author's use of such a brilliant narrative technique is completely in tune with the use of time, memory and nostalgia. Just as their reality went dark in an instant, a spark of imagination or the 'other' reality seems to ignite a space of their own--- just the two of them, creating innumerable possi...
