Repost from @misswbookreviews • Book Review 🎊 Repost from @misswbookreviews • Book Review 🎊 Dynasties by @anju_gattani27 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Dynasties is the first book in the Winds of Fire series by Anju Gattani. This family saga is a look into elite, rich and powerful Indian culture and the family dynamic. Sheetal is a complex, dynamic character that brought the story to life. I loved following her story with decisions that she had to make. The beautiful setting of Bollywood is one that I am a HUGE fan of . The relationships and the family dynamics were so well written and rich with details. I am so happy this is a series, I cannot wait to read more of this author! #WindsOfFire #WindsOfFireSeries #AnjuGattani #BridgeCulturesBreakBarriers #RaigunIndia #bookstagram #dynasties . . . . . . #indianfiction #bookreview #whenfateconspires #books #bookish #bookreader #fiction #fictionstory #lovestory #romancebooks #romance #books #fictionbooks #fictional #drama #lovestorybook #bollywoodstory #fictionbook #love #blogging #blog #indianbooks #booknerd #selfempowerment

Repost from @sherylparbhooauthor ❤️. Congratul Repost from @sherylparbhooauthor ❤️. Congratulations to all of the nominees! I see the names of some talented authors I know and love, and it makes my heart sing to see you receive this recognition! Peter Joseph McDade IV, Robert Gwaltney, George Weinstein, Christopher Swann, Kim Conrey. But my eyes welled with tears when I saw one special name on the list of nominees for First Novel - Anjana Gattani for her novel DYNASTIES. I think I may have even squealed a little in Starbucks and attracted some "who's the cuckoo lady over there?" looks. Anju Gattani is a dear, dear friend with a heart of gold, and I only caught her friendship on the tail end of her 20-year journey to the publication of this novel. This woman persevered in getting her story into the world when weaker souls would've crumbled. Every time I whine about my WIP, I think of her and keep going. I'm so, so happy for you my friend! . . . . . . . https://www.authoroftheyear.org/2023-nominees-1. . .’First Novel’ category . . . . . #bookstagram #diversity #multicultural #writersofinstagram #writerscommunity #series #bookworm #amwritingfiction #womensfiction #womensissues #storytime #indian #desi #multiculturalism #culture #storytimethreads #writing #book #manuscripts #read #readingnook #windsoffireseries #anjugattani #bridgeculturesbreakbarriers #dynasties #windsoffire

I love books that are set in other countries that I love books that are set in other countries that shed light on other cultures. It was interesting to learn more about the arranged marriage customs in India and all that transpires as matches are made and leading up to the marriage. This was a real page turner for me which was largely due to the interesting characters and their family dynamics. My heart broke for Sheetal time and time again and I was really invested in her from the beginning. I’m absolutely thrilled that this is the first book in a series and can hardly wait to see what’s next in Sheetal’s journey. Release Date: January 11, 2023 About The Book: Sheetal Prasad, a glamorous, twenty-two-year-old oil painter, is the envy of Raigun, India.

Her homeland, now modern and global, at last allows women to marry for love, and Sheetal is determined to wed her college sweetheart. Her parents, however, insist she fulfill her familial duty, preserve their honor, and marry millionaire Rakesh Dhanraj—or be cast out forever. The alliance of the Prasad and Dhanraj families drowns Sheetal in a web of lies, deceit, and betrayal. In her plan to sever this marriage and escape, Sheetal uncovers numerous devastating secrets that threaten to bring down the two family dynasties. When the Dhanraj's tyranny threatens her son, Sheetal has no choice but to protect the boy at all costs, burning down the façade of her abusive marriage and empowering herself to break free of all bondages. ✨Review I loved the writing style. It was descriptive enough where I felt like I was in India attending the weddings but not overly where I felt like I was only reading about the setting. The characters had great development. Following Sheetal felt like I was getting a glimpse for the expectations and roles of an household in India. You could really feel the struggle in choosing what she wanted and what was best for the family. I think she is very brave for how she chose to balance the two. I went from hating Rakesh to thinking he was changing and back again. I needed to know what happened and flew through the second half of the book. Can’t wait for the next in the series.

Repost from @bookobsessionslinda • Linda’s Boo Repost from @bookobsessionslinda • Linda’s Book Obsession Reviews “Dynasties”@anjugattani 1/23 On tour with @SuzyApprovedbooktours. Anju Gattani, the author of “Dynasties” has written an intriguing and captivating novel. This is the first in a series, and I look forward to reading the other books. The author vividly describes the characters, the settings, and the events. The story takes place in a more modern India, where there is a conflict between traditional and modern cultures. There also is the contrast between wealthy and poor families. Anju Gattani describes her characters as complex and complicated. There is manipulation, scheming, betrayals, secrets, and lies. Sheetal Prasad is a 22-year-old artist who has fallen in love with a young man. Her parents are traditional and have someone in mind for her to marry. Her parents want Sheetal to marry Rakesh Dhanraj, a wealthy older man. That would combine the two families. Sheetal does marry Rakesh and wonders if she should have listened to her heart. Her mother-in-law makes adjusting for Sheetal difficult, and Sheetal becomes aware of disturbing actions. When Sheetal has a son, she is faced with making decisions that will assure her son’s safety. I appreciate that the author discusses important topics, such as mental and physical abuse, addiction, and mental illness. The author also writes about honesty, communication, self-worth, hope, and love. I highly recommend this story to others. . . . . . . . #dynasties #windsoffire #bridgeculturesbreakbarriers #anjugattani #windsoffireseries #womenwritingfiction #bookstagram #diversity #multicultural #writersofinstagram #writerscommunity #bookworm #amwritingfiction #womensfiction #womensissues #storytime #desi #multiculturalism #culture #storytimethreads #writing #book #read #readingnook #amwriting #bookseries

DYNASTIES Book 1, Winds of Fire Series By Anju DYNASTIES Book 1, Winds of Fire Series By Anju Gattani @anju_gattani27 For @suzyapprovedbooktours Can we all take a moment and appreciate this breathtaking cover?!? I’m in love with this book. It has family drama and the most amazing descriptions of how the elite class live in India. Sheetal’s parents have arranged a marriage for her that will lift her wealthy family into the upper stratosphere of their social circle in Raigun, India. Sheetal just wanted to marry her college sweetheart and paint. She is not happy at all about being part of the Dhanraji family. Her husband, Rakeesh, is brooding and absent. Her mother-in-law is bitter. One of her sisters-in-law has manic behavior and the other is quiet and nervous. One of the book club questions in the back of the book asked about who does the reader see as a villain in this book. I found that to be an interesting question and I thought I would give my answer as part of my review. I think almost every character in this book has some attributes of being villainous. I feel like Sheetal and her youngest sister in law are the closest characters to being victims. Everyone definitely uses Sheetal for their own gains. If you like family dissension, extravagant lifestyles, and a whole group of characters that you can’t decide if you dislike or feel sorry for, than this is a must read for you! #WindsOfFire #WindsOfFireSeries #AnjuGattani #dynasties #BridgeCulturesBreakBarriers #RaigunIndia #suzyapprovedbooktours #coverlove. . . . . . . . #creative #fiction #womenwritingfiction #bookstagram #diversity #multicultural #writersofinstagram #writerscommunity #bookworm #amwritingfiction #womensfiction #womensissues #storytime #desi #multiculturalism #culture #storytimethreads #writing #book #read #bookseries #bookclubofinstagram

Repost from @christinaluvs2read • 🌟 BOOK REVI Repost from @christinaluvs2read • 🌟 BOOK REVIEW 🌟 Today is my STOP with @suzyapprovedbooktours for "Dynasties" (Winds Of Fire Book One) by @anju_gattani27 Publ. January 2023 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Star Read What would you do if family, the people you trusted most, betrayed you? Sheetal Prasad, a glamorous, twenty-two-year-old oil painter, is the envy of Raigun, India. Her homeland, now modern and global, at last allows women to marry for love, and Sheetal is determined to wed her college sweetheart. Her parents, however, insist she fulfill her familial duty, preserve their honor, and marry millionaire Rakesh Dhanraj—or be cast out forever. The alliance of the Prasad and Dhanraj families drowns Sheetal in a web of lies, deceit, and betrayal. In her plan to sever this marriage and escape, Sheetal uncovers numerous devastating secrets that threaten to bring down the two family dynasties. When the Dhanraj’s tyranny threatens her son, Sheetal has no choice but to protect the boy at all costs, burning down the façade of her abusive marriage and empowering herself to break free of all bondages. Review Be prepared to get swept off your feet and taken to beautiful India to witness a lavish wedding, surrounded by colours and riches one can only dream of. The author had me in her hands from beginning to end with her gorgeous descriptions and fascinating characters. I was mesmerized and cannot wait for Book two in this series. And the cover? Absolutely stunning! Thank you for having me on this tour. ‘Dynasties’ the debut in her Winds of Fire series, is slated for release on January 11, 2023. . .#dynasties #windsoffire #windsoffireseries #bridgeculturesbreakbarriers #anjugattani . . . . . . #bookstagrammers #bookstagram #books #booklover #booksbooksbooks #bookstagrammer #bookshelf #book #booknerd #reading #bookblogger #bookworm #bookish #readersofinstagram #booksofinstagram #bookreview #bookstack #bookcommunity #read #bookphotography #booktok #booklovers #bookaddict #booklove #reader
