 📍 This book, Assassin, contains a mystery of an assassin who's trying to kill Satyapriya. Assassin is an attempt to document the times and lives of women of the author's generation as personally witnessed by her. Assassin is very much autobiographical, although the characters and situations are fictional, the emotional core of the story remains true. That also made it an interesting story. This book is a thick one, it is 654 pages long. So, go for it if you are likely to read thick books. 📍 Satyapriya is a professional woman living alone in a city, she is attacked by a biker.

  📍 The Forty Rules of Love contains two intertwined stories: Sweet Blasphemy, which narrates the relationship between Rumi and Shams as written by Aziz Z. Zahara, a self-proclaimed Sufism follower, and Ella's story, a reader who has taken the job of reading the book, and making a report on it, that is Sweet Blasphemy. As soon as she starts reading the book she feels that the author has written this seeing her situation. Ella is married to David. She is soon going to turn forty, has three kids.  📍 The book emphasizes Sufism's importance in understanding different perspectives, and the narrative shifts from the main characters to other individuals such as beggars, innkeepers, novices, prostitutes, guards, Rumi's family, and others. 📍 Although The Forty Rules of Love focuses on the importance of loving God, some of the rules felt forced into the plot. 📍 First I'd like to point out things I didn't like in the book:-  1. I couldn't believe Kimya would think lik...
