The stories in Xunaira's book Love, Life and Everything Else
are tales that are seemingly ordinary and each one of us has either experienced or heard such stories numerous times but the thing that makes them special in this book is the sensitivity with which the author weaves the emotions and narrates the sequence of events to form a recital that touches our hearts and leaves us thinking about them long after we are done reading them.Beautifully narrated and simply yet effectively written, this book is a perfect travel companion and a book that can be read at anytime. I give Love, Life and Everything Else
a 3.8 out of 5 and recommend that you take this journey of exploring the various flip sides of life. :)I received an ARC by the author and I am very thankful to her. The above review is my personal opinion and in no way influenced.
