Dark matter by Blake Crouch - book review

-


" If there are a million ponds out there, with versions of you and me living similar and different lives, there’s none better than right here, right now. I’m more sure of that than anything in the world."⁣
⁣
Holy Moly! This book is mind-bending and head-spinning like a labyrinth. I just finished this book last night and I still can't stop thinking about it. Long story short, the book is based on the multiverse and quantum superposition concept, that different worlds and realities exist. It's about this guy Jason Dassen (happily married physicist teacher who thinks he is an underachiever), who gets trapped in the multiverse maze and his attempts to find his world to get back home to his wife and son. But how do you get out of the maze and find your world and how do you know which one is your reality? The answer is coherence. Finding the pieces that hold things together. The memories. The connection. Even if given a choice to live different versions of yourself where you can fulfill all the what ifs of life, the one that holds your true reality is the one that you have lived and the connection that you share with the people you love. Wow! I didn't expect such a meaningful story from a sci-fi thriller 😃😊👌⁣I want to see this book adapted into a movie😃
⁣
This will go down as one of the best books I've read. I highly recommend it as a must-read. ⁣

Obstacle is the way by Ryan Holiday - book review

"It's a little unnatural, I know, to feel gratitude for things we never wanted to happen in the first place. But we know, at this point, the opportunities and benefits that lie within adversities. We know that in overcoming them, we emerge stronger, sharper, empowered." What a great book by Ryan Holiday. I read this in January 2020 and absolutely loved it. I felt like I needed to read this book. Here the author talks about three disciplines that we need to practice and develop inorder to overcome any obstacles in life. 1. The discipline of perception: How to control our perceptions at times of adversity to turn obstacles into opportunities. When you are faced with a problem, before you let fear take control, take a moment and remind yourself that you have the power to control your mind so that you can control the way you react to the problem. Remember life is 10% what happens and 90 % how we react to it. 2. The discipline of action: While it may seem that one n

Book Review | Part 2 | The Year Of Less by Cait Flanders

~MINDFUL CONSUMER~ "When you want less, you consume less and you also need less money." ⁣ ⁣ Three years before the shopping ban, Cait had already started her transformation journey and got herself out of debt, quit drugs and alcohol, and improved her eating habits to stay healthy. But when she realised she was still stuck in the cycle of consumerism, she finally decided to address the real problem - her impulsive spendings. The idea of a year-long shopping ban was thus born to push her into becoming a mindful consumer. She took inventory and decluttered all the things that wasn't adding value to her life. She also started a blog to keep accountability.⁣ ⁣ Easier said than done. Such big challenge comes with even bigger struggles. Changing her daily habits and routines was tougher than she thought as she was emotionally connected to them. The hardest of this was confronting the triggers and urges because our bad habits are never completely gone. They're "lurking b

My name is red by Organ Pamuk - Book review

"To know is to remember that you've seen. To see is to know without remembering. Thus, painting is remembering the blackness."⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I had picked up and put down this book several times in the last two years, so when I finally finished reading this book yesterday I was elated like I have achieved something. In a way I have😊⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Undoubtedly this book is a masterpiece. Its rich and painstakingly detailed, which is the essence of the book as it tried to described the purpose of art, the distinction between the Islamic and the Western style of art, and the influence of the latter among the artists in 16th century Istanbul creating conflicts among themselves leading to chaos  and murders.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ The author, meticulously and cleverly, incorporated the rather dull philosophical discussion of art into plots, consisting of multiple narrators, that are interesting and suspenseful, as the story slowly unfolds itself towards the climax. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ It will require some patien
