King Of Wrath by Ana Huang
She’s the wife he never wanted…and the weakness he never saw coming. Ruthless. Meticulous. Arrogant. Dante Russo thrives on control, both personally and professionally. The billionaire CEO never planned to marry— until the threat of blackmail forces him into an engagement with a woman he barely knows. Vivian Lau, jewelry heiress and daughter of his newest enemy. It doesn’t matter how beautiful or charming she is. He'll do everything in his power to destroy the evidence and their betrothal. There’s only one problem: now that he has her...he can't bring himself to let her go. *** Elegant. Ambitious. Well-mannered. Vivian Lau is the perfect daughter and her family’s ticket into the highest echelons of high society. Marrying a blue-blooded Russo means opening doors that would otherwise remain closed to her new-money family. While the rude, elusive Dante isn't her idea of a dream partner, she agrees to their arranged marriage out of duty. Craving his touch was never part of the plan. Neither was the worst thing she could possibly do: fall in love with her future husband.King of Wrath is a steamy arranged marriage/billionaire romance. It is book one in the Kings of Sin series but can be read as a standalone. It contains explicit content, profanity, and mild violence. Recommended for mature readers only.

Rashmirathi
Rashmirathi (रश्मिरथी), meaning 'the Sun's charioteer', is one of the most popular epic poems of the great Hindi poet, Ramdhari Singh 'Dinkar'. It is one of the most appreciated works of Dinkar other than "Kurukshetra".Karna was first born son of Kunti whom she had abandoned at birth as he was an illegitimate son. Karna grew up in a lowly family, yet became one of the best warriors of his time. In the Great Mahabharata war, Karna was obliged to fight from the side of Duryodhana as Duryodhana recognizing his merits had made him a king and adopted him as a close friend. Karna fighting from Kaurava's side was a great worry of Pandavas as he was reputed to be unconquerable in war. The way Dinkar has presented the story of Karna with all hues of human emotions trapped in moral dilemmas, is simply marvelous. The rhythm and meter is lilting. Choice of words and purity of language is exhilarating. The work has a timeless relevance and is a must read.
The art of being alone
Taylor Swift said once, “The scary news is, you are on your own now. But the cool news is, you are on your own now” The fear of loneliness has been injected into our minds since we were kids. We have learned that the kid who eats, & sits alone, and has no friends is pathetic. In every book/movie, the kid with no friends is always featured as a weak character who needs to be saved. No one wants to be seen as a ‘weirdo’ hence, our dread of being alone. We don’t want people to think of us as unwanted or not fitting in with the cool kids. We don’t want people to think that no one chose us. So what do we do? We start becoming like an ideal version of whom everyone loves. And in the race to achieve people’s acceptance and love, you lose yourself. But enough is enough. The book is divided into two sections. The first section is about transforming loneliness into solitude. And the second section is about using your solitude to turn it into your growth period. If you are ready to transform your perception around loneliness and achieve your goals using your ‘alone time’ then welcome to ‘The Art of Being Alone.’
The Rebellious Spirit by OSHO
The Wandering Falcon is Jamil Ahmad's harsh and beautiful portrait of a tribal landscape. SHORTLISTED FOR THE MAN ASIAN PRIZE 2011 LONGLISTED FOR THE DSC SOUTH ASIAN PRIZE 2013 The boy known as Tor Baz - the black falcon - wanders the tribal landscape of Pakistan, Iran and Afghanistan. He meets men who fight under different flags, and women who risk everything if they break their society's code of honour. Where has he come from, and where will fate take him? 'Striking. One of the finest collections of short stories to come out of south Asia in decades. Rarely has a writer shown greater empathy for its people, or brought such wisdom and knowledge to writing about a terrain largely inaccessible. The power and beauty of these stories are unparalleled in most fiction to come out of south Asia' Guardian 'Astonishing' Independent 'Remarkable. Written in a style that has about it the reverberant clarity of fables, but their intention is realist, uncovering a largely neglected world, and their cumulative effect is deeply moving' Sunday Times 'Its setting alone, in the cruel and punishing highlands, deserts and rocky altitudes where the borders of Pakistan, Afghanistan and Iran meet, is worth the price of admission. Here is a book, to my knowledge the first in fiction, that gives an insider's account of the hard-bitten lives of the scores of tribes, collectively known as the Pawindas, or foot-people. The result is mesmerising' The Times 'Brilliantly evokes the harshness of nomadic life. Chilling' Metro Jamil Ahmad was born in Jalandhar in 1933. As a member of the Civil Service of Pakistan, he served mainly in the Frontier Province and in Balochistan. He was Political Agent in Quetta, Chaghi, Khyber and Malakand and later, commissioner in Dera Ismail Khan and Swat. He was posted as minister in Pakistan's embassy in Kabul at a critical time, before and during the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979, and his last assignment in the government was Chief Secretary Balochistan. He lives in Islamabad with his wife, Helga Ahmad

English Supplementary Reader for Class 7
A truly excellent supplementary reader for Class 7 English, like the "Fourth Edition English Ferry," would likely stand out for several key reasons:Engaging Content and Themes: * Captivating Storytelling: The stories within would be more than just exercises in reading; they would be genuinely engaging, sparking curiosity and holding the attention of young readers. Think tales with relatable characters facing interesting challenges, perhaps with a touch of mystery, adventure, or humor. * Age-Appropriate Themes with Depth: While suitable for their age, the themes explored would offer opportunities for thoughtful reflection. They might touch upon friendship, courage, kindness, perseverance, understanding differences, or the importance of making good choices, but presented in a way that resonates with a 12-13 year old's understanding of the world. * Variety of Genres: An excellent reader wouldn't stick to just one type of story. It would likely include a diverse mix perhaps short stories, excerpts from novels, poems, folk tales, or even short plays exposing students to different styles of writing and expanding their literary horizons.Language Development and Skill Enhancement: * Rich and Varied Vocabulary: The language used would be slightly challenging yet accessible, introducing new words and phrases within a clear context, thus naturally expanding the students' vocabulary. * Focus on Comprehension: Beyond just reading, the reader would subtly encourage deeper understanding. This could be through the narrative itself, or perhaps with thoughtful questions and activities (though these might be in a separate workbook). * Improved Reading Fluency: The length and complexity of the texts would be appropriate for developing reading fluency and building confidence. * Exposure to Different Sentence Structures: Students would encounter a variety of sentence structures, implicitly improving their understanding of grammar and syntax.Pedagogical Value and Presentation: * Alignment with Curriculum Goals: While supplementary, the reader would likely align with the broader learning objectives of the Class 7 English curriculum, reinforcing concepts and themes taught in the main textbook. * Clear and Appealing Presentation: The book would be well-designed with clear font, adequate spacing, and perhaps engaging illustrations that complement the text without being distracting. * Potential for Classroom Discussion: The stories and themes would ideally lend themselves to lively classroom discussions, encouraging critical thinking and the sharing of different perspectives.Overall Impact: * Fostering a Love for Reading: Ultimately, an excellent supplementary reader would aim to cultivate a genuine love for reading in young learners, making them see reading not just as a task but as a source of enjoyment and knowledge. * Building Confidence and Independence: By successfully navigating the texts, students would gain confidence in their reading abilities and become more independent learners.In conclusion, if the "Fourth Edition English Ferry Supplementary Reader Class 7" effectively incorporates these elements engaging stories with meaningful themes, opportunities for language development, and a thoughtful presentation that fosters a love for reading then it would undoubtedly be considered an excellent resource for Class 7 students. It would serve as a valuable tool for enriching their English language learning journey beyond the core textbook.To give you a more specific review, I would need to have access to the book itself and its contents. However, based on these criteria, you can likely assess its quality if you have the book in front of you.
