My Reviews:-

What does King means or let me ask what is the first thing that comes to your mind when you hear the word King?
When I hear the word King, my mind makes a reflection of a man who is very rich, prosperous, handsome, has many wives and who is always there for the people of his Kingdom. He must work for the goodness and prosperity of the people. He is also an inspiration to many and is loved by all.

But can we think of a person other than such characteristics to be a king.

So here is a novel "King Of Hearts" written by Prassant Kevin and published by Bookmozo which shall change the thought of everyone.
The protagonist of the story is a young ordinary boy, Ayan Kapoor who left his house and accepted to struggle to achieve his dream. He wants to become a writer and present something to readers which is very different from the teenage romance and other genres running in the country. In all this while, he meets a girl, Misha who becomes his best buddy and who is always beside him no matter what. But on his first interview he gets trapped in talking about his personal life which leads him to tell the truth which he was hidding for some reasons. But as soon as he speaks his heart out in the interview, the friend who was always beside him leaves him and goes forever without speaking and giving any reason.

Why did Ayan speak his heart out in the interview and not before?
Why did Misha leave without saying anything? Will she ever return back?
Ayan wanted to get published and he wanted to publish something which was very different and very new. Will his work be published? Will his work earn him money, power and the celebrity status or will he become one of those writers who work is not appreciatwd by the public?
Will he become the KING of Hearts and rule the heart of the people or he will accept himself as a looser and will go back to his own city,Varanasi.

You will have to read this tale to get to know all the answers.

King Of Hearts is a beautiful tale of a young man and his path to success. The story goes on to show how a young ordinary boy brings the whole world under his feet and the sacrifices made by him. It also shows and teaches us about seperating and managing professional and personal life. King of Hearts shows us the importance of love,friendship and relationship in our life and how these people are beside us at the most trouble times.

The characters in the story is very beautifully portrayed. All of they have a very important role in leading the story foreward and for once the reader won't feel bore out of it. However there are a few grammatical mistakes which makes reading a bit difficult. At the end of the story, I think there is a printing mistake when a particular person is named. I hope this to be corrected.

Overall I think, the novel is a good and a quck read. This book shall be most liked by people who loves reading romantic, inspirational novels. The plots are beautifully weaved which shall excite you at times amd sometimes they shall make you laugh. However at the end you'll be satisfied for choosing this book.

Review:- First Love Matters, So Does The Second by Vishal Sah.

First Love Matters, So Does The Second.

Author:- Vishal Sah.

Publishers:- Half Baked Beans.

ISBN:- 978-93-84315-11-5.

My Review:-
Love.
What does love actually mean? Any guesses? Quoting from the dictionary, Love is an intense feeling of affection and care towards another person.

Love and Ambition are two different things. When a person's love and ambition, both are same, he/she doesn't find any difficulty in taking any decision. However if they are not same, then comes the time to prioritise as to what is most important to that person - Love or Ambition?

Here the novel "First Love matters, so does the second" written by Vishal Sah and published by Half Baked Beans is the story about a young boy Vishal Kapoor and his friends.
Vishal is a young teen in his school. As all teenagers, he like a girl from her class. Her name is Vedika. Fornuately he gets the opportunity to sit with her in the class. With the passing of time, they become very good friends and he falls in love with her. However when he decides to propose her, she informs him that she has entered into a relationship with her tuition mate Arnav without knowing that he was going to propose her.
This news breaks his heart and he goes in depression where he is unable to decide what he wants to do in his future. In the mean time, his bestfriend Shaurya enters into relationship with Myra whom he liked and loved very much. Days passes by and results comes out.
All of them joins the school. However Vedika leaves the school due to transfer of his parents to Shimla. During this two years, life gives him a second chance and he again falls for a girl, Shreya. They get into a relationship and everything goes well untill Shreya moves to some other city after her schooling gets completed. Everyone start drifting from each other with whom once they promised to be together always.
What had happened that seperated Vishal and Shreya?
Why did Shaurya and Myra drift from each other?
Did Vishal and Devika ever meet again?
What happened at their final reunion at Myra's house?
Why do Vishal call all of his friend together? What had happened to him?

You shall find all the answers to these questions when you will read this novel.

First love matters, so does the second is the story about teenage life and how it is important to choose things properly when times comes about taking difficult decisions.
It also shows the immaturity of teens and how things end up or become worse due to reluctency or stupidity of a person. The story takes us to our teenage and school life and I promise every reader shall find oneself in this story playing some role or the other and shall enjoy the ride eventually.

The Characters of the novel are perfect portrayed. However there are a lot of subordinate characters which confuses many a times. One has to look back in the novel to know whether he has read this character before and what role he played in the story.

There are lot of grammartical mistakes, printing errors and various other mistakes which makes reading difficult a bit. The author and publisher must look into it and make the correction accordingly for a more better ride.


Overall the novel is a good read. It brings both smiles and tears at different times. It shall be most liked by young teens or persons who wants to take a dip into their school life and want to enjoy and remember their past school and college days.

About The Book:-

Everything was perfect when all of them were at school. Vishal was happy with Shreya, so were Shaurya and Myra. But little did they know that a life ‘not so perfect’ was waiting for them outside their school gate. What happens when one chooses ambition over love? Would you be able to live with doing something you didn’t want to do? Could someone rectify their long forgotten past? Is it possible to wina battole against Death?
Explore what it is like to think that you are in love for the first time only to realise that you are constantly falling in love, as a wise man said“First Love Matters… So Does The Second”.
