Review:

This book is a vital and introspective collection that invites

readers into the profound thoughts and reflections of the author. As you

can see, the title evokes a sense of comfort and warmth and gives a feel

that we are sipping a cup of chai on a cozy rainy day. The book reads

like a private journal, each entry of this journal gives a glimpse into the

author’s imaginative world.

The author, Adeeba Arshad’s writing is written beautifully, both

poetic and relatable, touching on the themes of self-discovery,

emotions, the small joys and the challenges to face in daily life. The

author's tone is conversational which I like because it connects to the

readers and makes it easier for them to understand one’s work.

The author’s work exhibits significant strength., one of which is

authenticity. Adeeba, the author doesn’t shy away from sharing her

vulnerabilities, adding depth and honesty to the narrative. The readers

will find themselves reflecting on their own lives and experiences as

they journey through the pages and find comfort the shared

human experience. Overall, With A Cup Of Chai: A Diary Glimpse into

My Mind is a soothing and thought-provoking read that offers both

solace and inspiration. I will be rating this book 5 stars and

recommend you to read this book cause those who love reading

philosophy or poetry books then they definitely should be going with

this book.
