The continuation to journey through realization- review of Vitamin H- Volume 2

Finished reading the book 'Vitamin H- Volume 2' by Abhishek Vipul Thakkar. The author is the same person who has penned the previous volume. In order to check the review of the previous volume, please click here.

In the new book, we get to know some more details about the author. Let us have a look.

Abhishek Thakkar is a literature and philosophy student who aims to pursue MA in philosophy and Ph.D. in English Literature. He pursued his B.A. in English Literature from L.D. Arts college and pursued his MA in English Literature from the School of Literature, Gujarat University.

He is a voracious reader, ardent chess player, fervid book reviewer, and an ebullient motivational trainer. Being true to his multi-talented stature, he has been one of the finalists in two district-level dance competitions and Ahmedabad Management Association's Best Speaker's Contest, 2013. He has organized seminars and workshops on 'communication', 'Vocabulary Development', 'Mind Power', 'Bhagavad Geeta', 'Success Secrets of Jesus Christ', and 'How to study for exams'.

He is a contributing author of more than 14 anthologies which include Poetry and Y
ou Edition 2, Heavenly Hymns, Krishna- The Yuga Purusha, rock and Roll Saved My Soul, Musings of my Heart, and The Last Page of a Poet's Diary. He has also published two research papers, 5 poems, and 3 book reviews in The Smart Moves Journal and The Literary Herald. He has composed and written two songs titled 'Jo Tu Rab Hai' and 'Tujh Bin Kaise Jeeyu'.

Vitamin H (Volume 2) is his third solo book. His earlier books include Vitamin H and Tumse Ishq Banam Khud se Mohabbat. He aspires to become a professor of English Literature and Philosophy.

My take on the second book

The previous volume of the book had 111 beautiful quotes. Vitamin H, Volume 2 begins from the 112th quote. Each and every quote has a connection with reality and would provide the readers with a lot of encouragement. In his quotes, he makes the readers realize that they are special, and their life has worth. It also tells that dreaming is not enough, and one has to chase it in order to achieve it. Other than this, the book makes the readers aware of what to focus on in order to achieve success despite unfavorable circumstances. The author has also taken references to many different aspects in some of his quotes. For example, in one of his quotes, he mentions what lesson is taught by the game of chess.

The cover page of the second volume of the book shows a person, possibly some mountaineer going by her backpack, climbing up the rocks, while another person, who is already on the cliff, is helping her. The background shows the presence of the sun's rays amidst the dark clouds. The rays, I feel, define hope. The boy helping the girl climb the cliff is a sign of teamwork, trust, and genuine care- all of which are needed for having a meaningful life. The cover page is very much relevant to the content of the book.

I would recommend this book to all the people who need motivation. I would rate this book 4.8 out of 5.

I would give my best wishes to the author for his upcoming books. Mr. Vipul, you indeed have a long way to go!

Finished reading the book ‘Ponytail- The Love for Revenge’ a while ago. Before I present my take on this work of fiction, let us know about the author- this time in his own words. About the author: Hi, I am Dr. Pradip Chauhan born in the state of Gujarat in India in 1985. I have my medical science degree (M.B.B.S., M.S., C.R.M) FROM Saurashtra University. Presently, I deliver lectures of Anatomy Subject in P.D.U. Govt. Medical College, Rajkot. The book: If we read the book, we would see the plot circles around love and revenge, and the term ‘ponytail’ plays a great role in it.

I would suggest the author to get it changed into something catchy in the reprints. Now let us come to the main story. The plot circles around a rich businessman who has a pathetic past.
