Unforgettable First Stars of 'Without You'

First Review from a friend:

For every writer, the reviews they receive for their book is always special. Not only does a positive review boost the confidence of a writer, it becomes their source of inspiration to pen down more. So, I decided to honor some of my star reviewers here on my blog.

The first ever review I received was from Shrruti Patole Clarence. I 



A few days after 'Without You' was released, I woke up to a review on my Facebook timeline. It was from Shrruti. It went like this.


"It is 2 am now and I have just put down 'Without You'. 

I just couldn't put down ur book until I completed it!!!! U are an awesome story teller! I have laughed n cried wz Ananya, traveled thru Sreepuram wz her n even fallen in love with Arjun, with her!!!!!
The description of Dubai was so real that I felt I was there wz Ananya!
Colonel R. S. Nair was a pleasant surprise!!!!


The pace of the story is nice and keeps the reader wanting to know more!
I am smitten by this love story and it has surely been added to my 'favorite book list'!!!!
Well done! Looking forward to more!!!! God bless.


Shrruti is a writer versatile writer herself and her review made me shed a few happy tears. Her book 'Love Again' is a best seller and you can buy it HERE. Her stories are also part of many popular anthologies like The Second life, Crumpled Voices and Drenched souls: Moonlit matinee-2.

I received many other reviews post that, but Shrruti's remain the sweetest, being the first that I received.


First Review from a stranger:

One day, a few weeks after the release of my book, I received an email from Sandipa Sucharita Rath from Odissa. It was the first fan mail and I was excited. 



 She particularly told me how much the book created a difference in her life. I was over the moon. I tried to search for her on Facebook, I couldn't succeed as the spelling I typed in of her name was wrong. She later searched me out on Facebook and has remained my friend from then on. A loving wife, mother, and friend, she is a 
source of inspiration to me. 

A beautiful soul, I wish she remains my friend throughtout this life. 

Her Review:

The novel"Without You" has created a great difference in my life.
Earlier I enjoyed reading only short stories because it takes less time to reach the climax of a story. But once I started 'without you' I forgot about reaching the climax, the journey with this book was amazing.This book made me feel that novels can change your personality, your point of view towards life. Ananya and Arjun, two different personalities could create such an eternal bonding of love that whatever storm came in their path, the love sustained its essence. It has been beautifully described in this book. Looking forward to reading many more books by Preethi Venugopala.

Thank you Shrruti and Sandipa for all the love!

Wait for my next post where I acquaint you with a few of my other star reviewers.

Until then,
Much Love,
