Book Review: I have a dream by Rashmi Bansal



I picked “I have a dream” for whole and sole reason to motivate myself.
Lets talk about the writing style. The first few stories where the writer used hindi lines from the original interview was cringe worthy. I was not able to understand in the beginning if it was the author or the interviewee speaking. The book could have been presented better rather formed better.
Now the content part. The stories in this book were very inspiring. This book gets you in thinking gears. Infact some stories in this book had pushed me to do more research in certain field in which i am interested, if only it was well presented.
And being a Bollywood freak I would say movies should be made on 2 stories one on Sulabh sauchalay and second Parivartan of Arvind kejriwal.
There were so many heart touching stories where people gave up on a flourishing thriving career after IIT, IIM or in foreign country and chose to serve our Motherland by improving the lives of strangers who are helpless or unprivileged. 
This book would surely inspire you to be a doer in helping society. 
Read it for the inspiring stories!

Book Review : Funny Side Up By Ruskin Bond!

Image
This is my second book by Ruskin Bond. This book is basically a collection of stories from daily happenings of Ruskin Bond. A detailed description of when he wakes up, what he does after he wakes up, his afternoon routine, his evening walks, in short about his daily routine in general. He shares his experience by transitioning from the Dehra of his childhood versus Dehra now. He talks about what he loved while growing up. There are so many characters that made an impact on his life. His little experiences which he remembers precisely even after so many years are kind of funny to read. Ruskins story of his pet and his adventures rather misadventures with uncle ken are presented as short stories in the book and are light hearted to read. There is nothing much you can find in the book. No story or biography or anything just little life experiences. Its just nothing about nothing! 2.5 stars out of 5!
