Challenges of the Gods by C. Hofsetz – A nerve wrenching sci-fi
Like me, do you wonder sometimes that the world we see around us is not real? Maybe it’s just our perception that makes this world what it is. Or maybe it’s our mind which is playing games with us? Or wait is it something else!! Like a superpower, sitting somewhere and making us do things which we are doing right now!! God!! Yes, maybe he is the one pulling the strings & makes us all dance to his tune. If you also had similar questions and Deja vu of an alternate life, this is the book for you. Opening Lines: The first thing that comes to mind is that the afterlife is overrated. Page Count: 374 pages Publisher: Wild Rose Press Publication Date: January 7th, 2019 In Challenges of the Gods, Author C Hofsetz may not answer all the questions we have, but definitely gives us a glimpse of the world/concept that we claim to have dreamt of many times. He also gives us a new perspective about the almighty God. What if God is not meant to do the right thing always!! What if he is a bad guy? What if he also makes mistakes and then tries to correct it like us humans?? Mike, the lead character, assigned randomly by the god to correct their mistake, is a perfectly funny and equally sarcastic guy all girls dream for. Whenever he makes an entry, he lit up the pages of the novel and cracks me up. When his love betrays him in the story, I am sure every girl reading this book will wish if only once she could be part of the story to meet him. But the entry of Jane will surely crash all their hopes. Mike & Jane’s compatibility is just perfect. Other characters also play their role well and never leaves you wondering why the hell they are in the story. Mike’s journey to complete his mission i.e.to destroy the alternate world is described so well by the author that you are compelled to turn the pages one after another. The language and flow of the story are smooth too. However, Mike’s soliloquy sometimes becomes quite lengthy & hence boring. Though the plot of this sci-fi is really good, it could have been short. Who doesn’t like a short gripping read after all? So, with an overall rating of 4/5 stars, I will suggest you grab a copy of this nerve wrenching sci-fi and start your new year by taking a step close to the future. Happy new year guys!! C Hofsetz Born: Brazil Website: https://hofsetz.com/ After working for several years as a professor in Brazil, C. Hofsetz moved to the United States and changed careers. Currently, he is a Software Engineer by day and a writer by night. Software engineering and computers have been his passion since he was a teenager, but he’s been reading novels for longer than writing code. One day, he couldn’t help it anymore. He wrote the first chapter of a book. How bad could it be? But things escalated quickly. The next thing he knew, he was writing yet another chapter, and then the next. He tried to hide it, but his family knew he was up to something. When they figured out what he was doing, it was too late—he accidentally had written a whole book. The result of this journey is the Challenges of The Gods, a story about a fantastic world of gods meddling with humans. . . . . . Love reading Sci-Fi?

The Ultimate Guide to Smart Shopping by V. Rajesh
Can a consumer be a smart shopper? Do Women Really Shop More than Men? What is the right price? The Ultimate Guide to Smart Shopping by V. Rajesh answers all the above questions and many other questions like this in a very simply-written yet elaborated manner. V. Rajesh has talked about those topics that you might never have thought of. Let me be honest with you about when I first received this book from Rupa Publications, I thought that this read is going to be a tussle for the review but instead, Rajesh’s funny yet logical writing expedite my read and I read it in one go! I thought that this book is just going to be a book full of WhatsApp jokes, some quotes, and some shopping related stuff. But I was wrong, this book has explained the psychology of a consumer and a shopper very well. From ‘Why Men sucks at shopping?‘ to ‘Why we buy the things we buy?‘, he has explained to them all. The first chapter is ‘Do Women Really Shop More than Men?‘ and it’s my favorite. Favorite because we all know that women love shopping and Men kind of hate it but we never knew why! Well, the first chapter in a very well manner reveals this WHY. Also, it explains why Men usually forget to buy some of the things they were supposed to purchase and trust me it really does makes sense when you read it! Few things I’ve learned after reading this book are (From the Key Takeaways): The behavior of shopping varies based on gender, age and the category of product being purchased. There is no universally correct, right price. Shopper prefers self-service stores as they enable the ‘Touch, Feel and See’ experience. This is one of the key factors that drive, impulse buying. The most attractive and also the simplest promotion is always a straightforward discount. Online shopping is here to stay. However, physical stores are also not going anywhere. And a lot like these… The best thing about the book according to me is that the author has provided a ‘Key Takeaways’ and ‘Smart Shopping Habits’ column after every chapter so that readers can narrow down the things that each chapter is trying to tell. I would recommend this book to every person who loves to sell and shop stuff as it will tell you ‘The Science behind Shopping‘ and help you to alter the way you sell or shop for better. My Rating: 3/5 stars . . . . . Who doesn’t likes to shop especially if we’re talking about books, so to just let you know, you can save that money and get a chance to win free books every month by following us on Instagram at @booxoul and participating in the giveaways we host. Happy reading 🙂
