Just some random thoughts I had while reading the book:
1. Solnit was so pissed with the so-called everlasting knowledge that the men try to represent they have. Literally in every matter, they try to put forward some illogical, unreasonable and irrelevant garbage of the theories they posses and try to stop the women, violating the rights to speak laws everyday.
2. It has become a necessity to start talking about women and their rights by stating about their unprivileged condition first. Many people may find this as cliché or rather boring, but just think about it in this way, we guys  might have become bored to hear about these regular women tragedy everyday where this shitty condition of women is not changing for these whole periods of times those had finally made you bored!
3. I loved how Solnit talked about the violence women are facing in her country as well as tried to talk about some of the problems of India. Some of her quotations are very very strong. She has a great political as well as philosophical views.  She wasn't confined in talking about feminisms and women's problems only but also shared her perspectives as a writer in different artistic values.
4. In one of her essays, she also mentioned that time is definitely changing though. Women are suffering true, but not as much as they used to in the past. I think writing this is definitely an example of optimism which again gives us hope (the famous Pandora's box's hope in the good sense you know). The essay called "Pandora's box and volunteer police force" and "Thinking out of the box" are my absolute favorite.
5. In her essays she also talked about some other issues like capitalism etc. which shows her other sides like unbiases.Â
Just completed reading Dracula by Bram Stoker. Iâve got mixed feelings for this book. There are some things which I liked, some things I did not enjoy at all. I would like to discuss thoroughly though I am afraid that I wonât be able to as I have forgotten many things. However, lets get started...oops!
The Things Iâve liked about Dracula:
1. The story itself is very good. It has gothic elements, the environment is very scary.Â
2. The whole novel was explained indirectly by using different characterâs daily journals which is quite interesting.
3. I loved the concept of Jonathanâs going to Transylvania and literally everything happed in there.
4. There were some things which were explained really well. This book contain some little mysteries which were good to read.
5. Totally loved the character of Renfield. Never seen such an interesting character.
The Things Iâve disliked about Dracula:
1. I couldnât help feeling that this novel could have been a little shorter. There were some really unnecessary details which needed to be excluded to make it more better.Â
2. Other than Renfield, none of the other characters Iâve found interesting. Even, Lord Dracula himself wasnât that fascinating as Iâve thought at the beginning of the book.Â
3. Other than some chapters, most of the chapters or scenarios were a little boring.
4. The relationship between the characters seemed really mechanical to me. I didnât got them as they were portraited.Â
5. Last but not the least, I havenât enjoyed the writing style of Bram Stoker at all. The writings are really hard to follow.Â
âPride and Prejudiceâ is a beautiful book which is hilariously written. It is a very social novel. The different matters of society explained in this novel is very much relatable to my own society. The errors and doings of the society then has been shown hilariously. The whole novel was arranged systemically and has represented the situations of women in the society.Â
I enjoyed the conversation between Mr. and Mrs. Bennets in the first chapter. It represents how passionate the mothers were (still are in some societies) to get their daughters married to any fortunate, wealthy men. And the mothers kept competing with the others of their kind for this reason. And it was also not very uncommon that as much as they were in favor of those wealthy men, they were also very suspicious of them in every little matter.Â
There is soo much things to say about the plot of the novel but i am afraid that i am going to spoil it and I want to keep my review spoiler free as much as possible. thus explaining this book is actually explaining the characters I think.
The character âElizabethâ reminds me of the character âJo Marchâ from âLittle Womenâ. She is very sensible woman.
Mr. Darcy isnât the particular kind of hero that I like but certainly his character is very interesting. He is a great critics that I must admit. Some mechanical conversations of Mr. Darcy made me laugh. At first it seemed to me that there was a great change in Mr. Darcyâs character and disposition after falling in love with Elizabeth. Then I realized maybe those were always there but only concealed and waiting for a chance to be shown to only his dearest one and none else. Elizabethâs and Darcyâs characters are similar as both of them are somewhat really awkward in front of the society and that is one of the best part of the novel other than the social humors.
To me the character of Mrs. Bennet is very funny. But the character of Miss Bingley is the funniest and was soo much needed in the book.
I disliked the character of Mr. Collins. He seems to me that kind of person who lacks individuality of his own. Lady Catherine is just the kind of old lady who interferes in almost every business of other people.Â
The character Jane is soo sympathetic and kind. The part where janeâs mental condition was emotionally unstable was really touching. The relationship between Jane and Elizabeth is soo sweet and it is kind of like the relationship between me and my sister. They share each others happiness and sorrows soo comfortably.Â
Mary is a bookish nerd which I liked very much. She is literally out of everything but her books. But she is a little bit inattentive towards her family but thatâs okay because she has her own mechanical way of thinking. Lydia is very cheerful, talkative and silly. Kittyâs and Lydiaâs character in the book were almost the same.
This novel perfectly represents some states of human behavior such as agitation other than Pride and Prejudice of course. I highly recommend this book to everyone because this novel is so natural and relatable. But the plot and the matters happening in this novel are a little bit plainer. The story is little shorter and limited. I expected some more side plots. But in the whole, the novel is very good and it felt soo realistic to me.
Comparison means mentioning the similarities and dissimilarities between any two or more things. So as I have decided to compare Harry Potter with Percy Jackson, I am gonna discuss the similarities as well as dissimilarities. I will start with basic things of course that everybody knows. Lets start with similarities.
I do have many more similarities and dissimilarities in my mind but I am gonna write all of them in one post obviously (like who doesnât want to make sequels even if it is just a stupid post). Btw, I know that I am a terrible writer. But I am really trying to increase my level. Please be supportive. Thanks.
âTo kill a Mockingbirdâ is not like other classics. Many of us think that classics are usually big and a bit boring. But this novel is not at all like this. It is soo good and enjoyable from the very beginning. The writing style of Harper Lee is very natural and understanding.Â
The novel has represented many matters of the society very clearly through a young girlâs eyes. Many discriminatory factors of the society has been discussed thoroughly. This is a very simple novel but the simplicities are explained seriously. In fact, the whole novel is very pleasant to read and it has soo many details in it.Â
The society of the Maycomb County is an interesting one though in a peculiar way because everyone knows about other other peopleâs every business. Even Jem and Scout know very little affairs of others like whoâs loosing his third teeth which is really funny.Â
The characters in this book is well described. I obviously loved the character of âAtticusâ. It seems soo good that almost like every interesting character in any good novel is a reader. He is a great father and adviser as well. I am really proud that he is also a fellow INFJ! Some of his quotes are really mesmerizing. One of them is likeâ Before I can live with other folks, Iâve got to live with myselfâ. Another one is âA gang of wild animals can be stopped, simply because theyâre still humanâ. He is great teacher and this thing that he literally shares many of his experiences and many other good things about people to his children and that is what making his children so smart and brave.Â
I adore the relationship between Scout and Calpurnia. I have also loved some of the Calâs dialogues like âItâs the same God, ainât it?â And about Scout I would say, She is really and extraverted girl. And, the brother-sister relationship between Jem and Scout is very sweet. One of the Jemâs dialogue is strong too like âClowns are sad, itâs folks that laugh at themâ. One of the best part of the book is Scout, Jem and Dillâs acting of different plays as summer games.Â
I canât complete this review without mentioning one of the Tom Robinsonâs dialogue. The most touchy one is âIâs scared Iâd be in court, just like I am nowâ. Even Mr. Ewellâs character didnât seems that bad. After all, he was a war veteran and never learned any behaviors so he obviously has his reasons to behave the ways he behaves.Â
Now. I will talk about some of the scenarios I have loved. Like I have enjoyed the church part. I have never been to any church. So the scenery was new to me and hence was a new experience. The court scene was great too. I have made another new experience regarding the court stuffs. This scene was explained with details and it was really easy to get along with. Some small details of the book is soo good that I really canât bus just appreciate them. Like, in the court scene, in the middle of this serous event, Scout (as she is a child) didnât even forget to tell Dill to have a look at the judge who was smoking cigar in his peculiar way. As they are kids, of course they will be noticing and enjoying these little things more. Overall, the scenes in the novel are explained very distinctly which make the novel very atmospheric.Â
Reading the book, I have realized that it isnât actually only about discrimination that occurs in the society but also mostly about how we tend to judge people outwardly. Every person is very different on the inside that we donât seem to know by knowing them outwardly. I would definitely recommend this atmospheric, natural book to everyone irrespective of age.Â

We often find people around us whom we usually consider as "bad attitude person", "moody", "arrogant" or "attention seeker". We tend to avoid them. I personally think, by avoiding them, we are not letting them be heard. People will have different sorts of behaviors and ways to express themselves. It doesn't necessarily mean they are to be avoided and be left alone all the time. If we clearly understand that the person is craving for attention, why not giving them some? Seriously, it won't take us long or any effort just to say hi or ask how they are doing. Just do it you know, you'll end up feeling good and you're gonna make the other person feel good too. Just a simple thing and we are both delighted, isn't it? Let's spread love because we all are meant to be loved<3
