My thoughts

The Inside story of Melania Trumph is an unofficial biography, which gives a deep insight of her lifestyle and the shares her story of how she is going to be the future First Lady of America.

The story will thrill and keep you intriguing about the life of the Melania and her journey of being the future First Lady of America.

Book Blurb

This is a book about Melanija Knavs, today Melania Trump, an unauthorized or unofficial biography about the shy and skinny girl from Slovenia, a country most Americans think to be part of Russia, if they’ve ever heard of it at all. Even if they have heard of it, they surely haven’t heard of Sevnica, the small town Melanija calls – or at least called – home. Nonetheless, this Slovenian, this Sevnica native, can become First Lady as wife to the, at least on paper, most powerful politician in the world – the President of the United States of America. 

Her story is full of coincidences and aligned stars, the product of a web of incredible, even spectacularly fantastic circumstances. 
Melanija Knavs comes from a completely average socialist Slovenian family, born and raised in the former Yugoslavia under the dictator Josip Broz Tito. Her parents were not part of the Slovenian society elite, though her father Viktor Knavs was a member of the communist party. They weren’t rich, but they weren’t poor either. Melanija was never the brightest student and she never studied at Oxford, Sorbonne, or Harvard; she was never a supermodel, even less a top athlete, recognized scientist, or extremely successful businesswoman; nonetheless, today, right before her 46th birthday, she is by far the richest Slovenian of all time. 


Melania Trump truthfully didn’t actually have a career, but her story reads as if scripted in a Hollywood success story: a true American fairytale. 
We know a lot about Donald Trump, practically everything. On the other hand, not just Americans, but even Slovenians hardly know anything about Melania Trump. But when you read this book, you will learn almost everything about her. 

The biography of Melania Trump reveals a lot of new and exclusive information, thus far unknown to the American and Slovenia public. This information pertains to: 

- Information regarding the origins and roots of Melania Trump’s family 
- Facts regarding her mother and father’s profession in Slovenia 
- Official documents regarding Viktor Knavs’ membership in the Communist Party 
- Precise information regarding Melania Trump’s education 
- Who are Melania Trump's former lovers from Slovenia 
- Why Melania refused to speak Slovenian to her friends during her few visits to Slovenia 
- A review of her modeling career by a famous agent in 1993 in Vienna 
- Why Melania Trump became a successful model only after she met Donald Trump 
- Why Donald Trump still hasn’t seen Melania’s birthplace Sevnica 
- Why Ivana Trump thinks Melania is not qualified to be a First Lady 

The authors of this book about Melania Trump are the journalist Bojan Požar and publicist Igor Omerza from Slovenia. 

I am thankful to Mayra Calvani to the presenting me the book in exchange of a honest review. Thanks a lot.

1. What inspired you to write the book?

My work as a life coach is primarily with women, and I know that women can be really tough on themselves. I wanted to write a book that would inspire women and make them realize how powerful they are. I wanted to give them ideas about happiness and joy that they may not have thought about before.

First look at The Conspiracy at Meru


First look at The Conspiracy at Meru: Vikramaditya Veergatha Book 2




Guardians of the Halahala has a new look as well!


The deadly Halahala, the all-devouring poison churned from the depths of the White Lake by the devas and asuras, was swallowed by Shiva to save the universe from extinction.
But was the Halahala truly destroyed?
A small portion still remains – a weapon powerful enough to guarantee victory to whoever possesses it. And both asuras and devas, locked in battle for supremacy, will stop at nothing to claim it.
As the forces of Devaloka and Patala, led by Indra and Shukracharya, plot to possess the Halahala, Shiva turns to mankind to guard it from their murderous clutches. It is now up to Samrat Vikramaditya and his Council of Nine to quell the supernatural hordes – and prevent the universe from tumbling into chaos!
A sweeping tale of honour and courage in the face of infinite danger, greed and deceit, The Guardians of the Halahala is a fantastical journey into a time of myth and legend.



Reviews for Guardians of the Halahala

The story is interknitted with action, brilliant storytelling, and insightful of mythological and legendary elements that get under your skin and challenge the way you perceive history, as only few of the talented authors can. ~ Shreya Ganguly @ The Notepad Reviews

I am intoxicated, drugged, and floating in a world that has come to conquer my senses since the last few days. The world of Vikramaditya. The world carved by author Shatrujeet Nath. ~ Amrit Sinha on Goodreads

The quality of writing is powerful and beautiful, almost surreal. ~ By Manish Mahajan on Amazon


In fact the only disappointing thing about this book was that the second part isn't ready yet. ~ Srikanth Sarathy on Amazon

False Celings Book Review

About the book:

Born in the lush mountains of Dalhousie, Shakuntala is a pampered child of a wealthy builder. On her wedding night in 1946, she is gifted a secret to use wisely when the time comes. From the green valleys of Dalhousie to a village in Punjab reeling under the communal violence of 1947; from the Delhi of 1950s with its intoxicating smell of freedom to the Delhi of 1970s soaked in the hippie culture, the cancerous secret breathes with her, infects her. It is accidentally passed down, hidden under insecurities and jealousies, locked in its meaninglessness and leaving a trail of ruin. When her great-grandson accidentally discovers the secret, he is perplexed by the malice that flowed in his family's blood. Was it just the secret or his family would have destroyed itself even in its absence? Why was their love never greater than their unsaid expectations from each other?

My Review

 The story spans across generations and mainly focuses on the pre-independence and post-independence days. The story talks about the hustle and bustle of life and particularly about a family who has a false ceiling. The mystery lies in the false ceiling but throughout the entire story the false ceiling remains a mystery to be unearthed.

I felt like the story is trying to keep the elements of the false ceiling a secret. The story shows the lives of horror and uncertainty during the Independence days and how tough is it to take decisions in those turbulent times. You will feel the heat as you go through the pages and how a life can turn upside down when you have no idea about what will happen next.

The things in the false ceilings unearth itself in the last part of the book, and then will you understand why it was kept hidden for decades.
I really had a great time reading the novel and had a glimpse of the days people must have faced during the Independence days.

Book Review of Daughter of the Sun


Title: Daughter of the Sun (Cult of the Cat series, Book 1)
Author: Zoe Kalo
Genre: YA mythological fantasy
Word count: 93,000 words
Release date: May 1, 2016


Cult of the Cat series blurb

According to ancient Egyptian prophecy, three feline goddesses—Bastet, Sekhmet, and Mafdet—would one day be reborn as triplets during a solar eclipse.
But someone—or something—separated them at birth. Because if ever they were reunited, they would unleash a blistering power that could destroy the world.
In an adventure where the past confronts the present, and blood, betrayal and secrets abound, the triplets face each other for the first time. And discover they’re the only force able to stop the evil god Apophis from enslaving humanity.

Daughter of the Sun, Book 1 - blurb

Sixteen-year-old Trinity was born during a solar eclipse and left at the doorsteps of a convent along with a torn piece of papyrus covered with ancient symbols. Raised by nuns in the English countryside, she leads a quiet life until she’s whisked away to the Island of Cats and a grandmother she never knew.
But before they can get to know each other, her grandmother dies. All that Trinity has left is a mysterious eye-shaped ring. And a thousand grieving cats. As Trinity tries to solve the enigma of the torn papyrus, she discovers a world of bloody sacrifices and evil curses, and a prophecy that points to her and her new feline abilities.
Unwilling to believe that any of the Egyptian gods could still be alive, Trinity turns to eighteen-year-old Seth and is instantly pulled into a vortex of sensations that forces her to confront her true self—and a horrifying destiny.

My Review:

The storyline is gripping and will thrill you. Filled with twists and turns it has the elements of suspense, action and adventure. The pace of the story will keep you in the quest of what will happen next and which mystery is going to unfold itself. Trinity has to find out the real mystery behind the Island of Cats. Mystery surrounds the novel in every part and with each mystery solved there is one more to be solved that will again give rise to more mysteries.

The author's creativity in the writing the book keeps the story in a good pace and I am looking forward to read the sequel to this book and to unravel the mysteries that would follow.
