‘I would be lying if I said I was not afraid of death. However, being afraid does not make you a coward, it only makes you human. Stopping yourself from doing the right thing because you are afraid is what makes you a coward.'

Mainak Dhar's book - In enemies hands : A novella, is a short and beautiful story set in the state of Kashmir between an army officer and an estranged girl who gets caught in a crossfire. As the story unravels, we get to learn the magic of what happens when a certain person touches another one's soul and brings about a revolutionary change in the way they live their life, in the way they see the world around them. I am a fan of happy endings, so the ending was a cherry on top for me. The writing was good and easy to read too.… (lisätietoja)

Book Title: Brand New Start: Fast-Start Your Career with the Power of Personal Branding
Author: Mainak Dhar
Format: Kindle

My Thoughts:
The words brand is never only confined to a product or a service but also a personality. We often hear this word augmented to an individual's name. When someone does something very striking and spectacular, making the individual unique the word 'brand' comes into the picture.

In this connection, author Mainak Dhar whose fiction books I am familiar with has brought out this book which talks about the importance of ' personal branding' to cope with this competitive and digital world.

What to expect from the book?
Publicity and marketing is the most important aspect of any product or service to attract and gather a customer base. This process is universal for any profession and every talent. For example, if a writer capable of creating wonderful stories doesn't take steps to tell the world about their work, no one will know. For this, just marketing and publicity in a conventional manner is not sufficient. There is a pressure and compulsion to follow the trend and then decide how to market and publicise, similarly, for every other profession and service. To do this, the individual must be aware of how to push himselfherself into the competition. This process will be easier once a ' brand' is created. Therefore, in this book, the author has given practical experiences and realistic situations to inculcate ' personal branding.'

Who can read?
This book is for everyone who wants to impact their lives and stand ahead in the competition. The word personal branding is equivalent to self-awareness and self-potential. This book is for students, youngsters, people looking for inspiration in profession and business and so. The language and the grammar used is simple and engaging.

How good is the author's writing style?
Author Mainak has poured in all his career and experience with honesty in this book. The ADDA model he described in the book is quite amazing and effective. With many takeaways, the author has given his readers a good book to enhance e their personalities.

Final Verdict
A good starter book that emphasizes on personal branding and its importance.

Rating:
4/5

Book Title: Sniper's Eye
Author: Mainak Dhar
Format: Paperback

Book Title:
The title of the book, ' Sniper's Eye ' directly hints the reader that it's an action thriller story.

Book Cover:
The cover image of the book is the close-up of the rifle eye to target the victim.

Plot:
The story starts with the male protagonist, Aaditya Ghosh, working in an MNC going on a date with his lady love, Zoya who is also his colleague. They both visit a mall and the date turns out to be an unpleasant one because a man in the mall gets killed and thus the incident creates confusion and chaos around. Aaditya follows the shooter to catch him and ends up killing a terrorist. He is later arrested by the local police and during the interrogation phase, a senior police official apologizes and releases Aaditya for the arrest as the charges are proven wrong.

After the incident, he becomes a superhero in the public and his and in parallel his name is on the top list of victims by the terrorist gang who wanted to disturb the lives in the city. He conceals his past with Zoya and dreams about a good life with her. After this incident and on some mysterious grounds, Aaditya is named as children killer and the media also propagates the same. Aaditya gets completely cornered in the political and terrorist drama. How does he come out of it is what the story is about.

What I like:
1. The plot of the book
2. Interesting and gripping narration in the first person
3. Many subplots that made the book a page turner

What I didn't like:
The main mystery got revealed after the story reached more than half, and thus the next chapters looked dragging that looked distracted from the story as there was nothing else to reveal.

Characters:
The protagonist, antagonist and the supporting characters are plotted extremely well each of the characters supports the other as the story progresses.

Narration:
An interesting narration is found.

Language & Grammar:
No complex words or vocabulary is found making the read a simple one.

My Final Verdict:
A good action thriller but less impactful.
