Mini Reviews: Volume 1 ©Mridula Gupta Hey folks:  I had so many books in mind to review so I decided to club some together. These reviews may not be related to each other. It's just a haphazard list. This is the first part of the many Mini Reviews to come😇 Looking forward to your precious response. ------------------------------------------------💓💓💓💓--------------------------------------------------------- Sita’s Ramayana: Genre: Mythology ©Mridula Gupta Books take you places, but this one's gonna bring you home. As Indians, Ramayana has been drilled into our brains and souls. These mythological events have always been used as examples to teach us life lessons. They are an integral part of us just like our mother tongue. All our life we have been taught to sympathize with Sita and idealize ram.
