Love is not just about being in a relationship, it's much more than that.
What would you do if you were caught up in a love triangle, but without the love?
What if this love that you keep seeking, never really left?
Rudra, who thinks that he has started developing feelings for Ruhani, is aghast when she chooses her best friend over him - simply because her best friend is jealous. Set out on a task to bring Ruhani to her senses, he decides to go all in for the only girl in his life. But, when things go too far, and he finally gets a choice, will Rudra continue to be Ruhani's savior? Or will he find his own happy ending?
Narrated by Rudra, The Things We Do for Love, first of a two-part romance, dramatizes his quest for companionship. With a foray of jealousy, multiple second chances and bad and uninformed choices, this love-story by Raunak Agarwal is as relatable as his poetry.
The stories based on the concept of the utopian world always fascinate the readers.
The mere idea of living in a cloud-cuckoo-land sounds so alluring, isn't it?
'Not Worth Living For' is an offbeat story about two parallel worlds.
While one of the worlds runs parallel to our own reality, the other seems more
like an anti-utopian world where people are grotesque and are a promoter of the avant-garde.
Unlike the usual love stories, this story is well-thought and well-implemented.
'Not Worth Living For' narrates a tale of Ishita and Shweta who are akin;
their lives twisted around the same dark secret! While one (Ishita) struggles her
way through the turmoil that life offers in the real world, the other (Shweta)
finds it difficult to find allies on a strange planet called Isthenope.
A strongly knitted plot, this story addresses some of the most important issues that
prevail in our society who looks down upon people who think differently.
The story might be concocted but somewhere deep within our hearts and minds,
if we brood, we can relate with the two characters. Quite often, the societal
stigma becomes the major reason for succumbing to the dark world of depression.
Be it the parents or the friends, each sidekick plays a substantial role in this book.
I didn't find anything superfluous. However, the editing of the book is awful.
With an extraneous cover, the book fails to leave a positive first impression.
I wish it was proofread carefully because the content has quality for sure.
Bigfoot Publishers disappointed me with their quality, typesetting and font.
Nevertheless, if you are looking for a brisk paced twisty thriller, 'Not Worth Living For'
is the right choice. It has a balance of mystery, wonder, love and sorrow.
Best Wishes to the author!
New Delhi. September 1975. Diya Nair is eighteen, a diligent student, hopelessly in love with Aditya. Married against her wishes to Rajagopal, ten years older than her, Diya is exposed to an orthodox family where they follow archaic customs that are alien to her modern upbringing.

She gives her all to the marriage, and is blessed with two wonderful kids who become her world. Only Rajagopal's erratic, abusive behaviour is a constricting thorn in her side. He continues to break her spirit.

Aditya and Diya ever reunite? Will Rajagopal mend his ways? Will her confidence help her find the balance in turmoil? And will life come a full circle for Diya under the very mango tree she had planted

An author/mentor has to be honest, generous, bold, energetic, passionate, candid, authentic and devoted toward its reader or member or follower and I am following these principles in my life. I also felt that it is an honour to me that except for love from readers, the members and followers there is no other best gift for me. I am focused on listening to meaningful sincere communication of their concerns and responding to adequate mentoring with my followers or readers who put questions to me whenever I get time.
I wrote this book for readers to understand when they read, it will clear many misconceptions which is beneficial for them. It's better for every young man or woman whether a student, professional or businessman to understand the ethics of leading a peaceful, prosperous life. That is in their interest to know at an early stage how their forthcoming destiny would be like? It may be good or bad, that will depend on your habits, behaviour, mindset, pre-set notions, etc. You can calculate it by doing a Self-analysis and then acting upon it.
I hope every reader will be interested and would like to do this exercise. I wish good luck to all my readers a happy, healthy and peaceful life.
