Hey, LM! Here's the review of the 52nd epistle.
I loved some of the lines which you have used, here. They are like, so so so true.
The art of manipulation is perhaps the most complex yet simple source of destruction.
I know that the teenage years are the golden years of self-discovery...
Love can make people do things that nobody could have even dreamed of them...
I know you better than you know yourself...
"No, I'm saying that manipulation is a very, very dirty game. It's a very slow and deliberate process. There are some people who are diabolical puppeteers or manipulators who can control situations as per their whims and desires because they have the skill set to do such kind of a thing. We cannot always be assured that we'll be able to see through them. So don't judge anyone without knowing the scenario."
"No, you are too trusting and have terrible judgment of people,"
"Mind reading and seeing through facades are two different things. You're brilliant in the former, no doubt, but you're poor in the latter,"
Thank God, I am good at both. *sighs* And I know LM, you are good at both, too.
"Manipulation is a rarely mastered art that requires great amounts of cunning and resourcefulness. If gotten right, it's nearly impossible to see through, especially if there's a strong foundation of trust. So don't take it lightly and underestimate its power... it could happen to anyone."
Doubt -
"No, I'm saying that you have an excellent knowledge on this, but you are no manipulator by nature,"
Ranveer argues that manipulation is necessary in the stock market. But he also adds that it's against his ethical principles. So, is Ranveer arguing that he is a manipulator at times? (he just gave a gimmick of it to Ishaani, also)
Well, coming back. This was a mind blowing update! It the explanation part literally blew my mind apart along with fascinating me the way it did. <3 But it was also my turn to freak out after Sugar Pie, did. Ranveer and me are so similar!
I too was explaining the difficult concept of love to my 15 year old cousin (elder by one year). She just wasn't a big believer in it and was ranting and ranting about the 'stupid' concept of love. And I had to explain it to her. Finally, after so many dubious looks and convinced smiles, and two hours (I could've as well read a book) she declared that love is interesting and she finally believed in it.
Er, see, I too got deviated like Ishaani. *slaps her forehead* Coming back, Ranveer is appointed as Ishaani's driver and he thinks that it's too high a job for him. This guy is too humble and grateful! And three days of convincing! Ranveer is truly made of kisi aur mitti. And the whole manipulation explanation which you've given is BEAUTIFUL. Every word is true.
Women discussing about that girl as if she is an oddity is cruel. People never often do put themselves in the shoes of the ones in problem. That's the whole problem in our society. How many ever decades passed, human thought process never changes much for the good. :(
Ishaani and Ranveer are so like doing a case study. Oh, this resembles me again. Must admit, your FF is the most realistic one which has some or the other qualities of people from day-to-day life.
He-he, Ranveer's slip of tongue was so adorable. And Ishaani blushing and jealous. Well, well, someone is head over heels in love, isn't so? Pity she never realised it. This Book Three is an eye-opener mostly for the Interlude Ishaani and a lil' for Ranveer (he too can observe while reading his entries that she was in love with him, I guess).
Ranveer patiently making Ishaani understand in spite of her stance not to was <3. And Ishaani is actually having a terrible judgement of people. And they both agree that Ranveer will be for her to protect her. But he also has inhibitions about Ishaani falling in love and pushing him away. But she is so sure. Oh, this is such an irony. She finally did that and became a prey to all the manipulation. It's like, most of the chapters, here - the Promises and This update is all futuristic. The last part was excellently written, as well.
Well, I have been noticing that we're getting long updates. <3 Ha, I am so glad for that. And there are only eight more epistles to go! Interludes. <33 I actually feel that if you keep up the same pace, you will be able to finish Book Three by May.
A beautiful update, again. And update the next one, soon enough!
Love,
Poplu.
