This is my first blog ever and I thought of starting it with review of the book which I loved the most till now.

I have completed with this AMAZING book and I am speechless. I am short of words while i am giving this review. Since when I started reading novels this is one of the best book i have ever read. An incredible story of Kashmir and a Lady :)

Well coming straight to the story, the author has done a great job. There are 40 chapters in this book and each chapter is more and more interesting when you go on reading. The great lady Shahzadi Ghulab Sahib is the main character in this book. Udana her mother sacrifice each and every thing for her child. Its beautifully described in the book. The terrorist part is something great which makes you desperate to read the book at one stroke. How Ghulab kills the terrorist and escapes form the camp with her mind is something we wouldn't expect.

Later on how her friend helps her in all the situations and how she changes the whole Kashmir and people staying over there. The best part was that when her friend told about the Stones which she had in her teddy that was amazing and one of the main turning point of the story. There are many stages in the book that will make you cry when you go on reading. She has suffered a lot and despite of that she has moved on so fast with her great mind, decision making and attitude that she is noticed by the whole world. Later on she is given the tag as "Princess of Maldives" which is very interesting.

In short, this book is perfect and nobody should miss it. Its a highly recommended book from my side. I didn't find any faults in this book as everything is so perfect, even the cover page. It can change the thinking of many people around the world...:) I give it 5*/5 without thinking twice...:)
This is my first time so there would be lots of mistake in grammar and in framing sentences so I want all your feedback so that it helps me in improving and provide you with more.
Thank you.

Blog No: 09 Tungareshwar is situated near the village of Sativali In Taluka Vasai, in the district of Thane – Maharashtra. It is the Highest Mountain plateaus in Vasai. The Temple of Lord Shiva is on the slope of hill which is known as Tungareshwar Hill & nearby flow of Tungareshwar River & behind temple there is “Ram kund”. In addition to the ancient temple, river there is beautiful streams and waterfalls. If you want to reach to the temple or waterfall you have to walk 3 km as auto rickshaws will leave you at the entrance. Auto Rickshaw takes 30 Rs per seat. When we started walking I saw there are streams flowing down which was great; loving nature. It almost took more than 1 hour to reach Lord Shiva temple. Temple is well maintained and you will find small temple at the entrance and behind the temple. You will find lot of monkeys which are searching for food and if they find in your hand they will snatch it away :). After doing darshan we preceded our journey to waterf

Blog No: 13 Nature has a very great impact on every one’s life and we are lucky to have some places nearby us. Recently I visited Pandavkada Waterfall which is in Kharghar, Navi Mumbai. Almost everyone came from our class which was really not expected ;). This is the second place which I have visited in monsoon and my first attempt to Pandavkada and it was quite good and safe from Tungareshwar. To reach Pandavkada waterfall one has to catch train from Harbour line and get down at Kharghar station. Outside the station there is Kharghar depot, catch Bus No. 54 and get down at Pandavkada stop. Bus ticket cost only 9 Rs and within 15 minutes you will reach your destination. After getting down you can see around its full of greenery and waterfall is clearly visible. It takes 20 to 30 minutes to reach near the wonderful waterfall. There is no difficulty in going there as it has a proper way. There is no risk and even small children can easily go through it. While walking you

Blog NO: 08 It’s been long 3 years when we establish our organisation Anstrengung United. Anstrengung is a German name which means Efforts. When we started this organisation we never knew that we would come so far with very huge number of kids which we have today. When we started this we had only 4 kids coming to us and now we have 45 kids who come to us daily. There were times when had situations that we wont go far enough, but our efforts made it possible and kept our hope alive and now today we complete our 3 years and now it will continue forever :-) When we were in Khalsa college, Matunga we have always seen this kids begging around for food, money, toys or some or the other things. They wanted to learn but they never went to schools, they wanted to play but they never got time to play, they wanted to dance in every festival without any fear but they just couldn’t do all these because they always thought they don’t deserve and always keep begging instead of learning, pla
