I will straight out say it. The Echoes of Home cover looks like an actual published book. It looks like it belongs in a bookstore. You're a professional now (no matter how much you try to deny it with your modesty you have to accept this coz I'm not being chane ke jhaad with you rn!!!) It is SO crisp & clean. Absolutely perfect!!

It's honestly my fav too, because Mrina's reaction to it lives in my head rent free and I compare everything I do with it now, without even thinking

replies in bold

ETA: Tagging ya'all coz you are mentioned🤭

That book cover is by far one of my favourite. I was literally in awe and had happy tears just wondering that this beautiful book cover is for my story.

You recently made another one which I consider a close second. You haven't posted that to your gallery as yet, I guess.

#Update 23: Sirf aur Sirf Moh

Title credits to the dialogue writers of Chaava because I cannot not be traumatized and melt over a dialogue at the same time.

Also, not to blow my own trumpet, isn't Mrina's Beautiful Disaster giving Aankhon se Batana sung by Dikshant😜

So if the Reading Challenge badge in my profile and lack of content on this page weren't evidence enough, I didn't do much editing, but does that mean I wouldn't if I can't?

I designed a book for summaries I wrote. If you are wondering who Aadya Divija is, no, she isn't an upcoming brilliant author; they are the names of my nieces. Idea credits to Lizzie for keeping me around books and to Leena for the actual idea with this update of hers. Also, thank you Bee for the constant reviews which helped the book covers become better.

Also, also, thanks Bee, Shiri, Mrina, Lizzie and Miss T for the "reviews"🤭

A Good Indian Girl

A Good Indian Girl—that’s what Chaaya was raised to be.

Cultured. Kind. Soft-spoken.

Good Indian girls don’t party. They don’t flirt with strangers. They definitely don’t witness a murder outside a pub and decide to investigate it because they’re bored of answering phones at a 9-to-5 receptionist job.

Good Indian girls don’t chase killers.

They either witness the crime… or become the next victim.

The night she saw that man die, the Good Indian Girl is gone.

What’s left is someone dangerous—

And she’s just getting started.

Crossed Out

It was meant to be a harmless prank—Kavya doesn’t believe in ghosts, so her friends, Gautami and Preeti, plan to scare her with a fake haunting. But the joke takes a dark turn when they receive a chilling note: their names are on it, and Preeti’s is ominously crossed out. Then Preeti vanishes without a trace. What began as a game spirals into real terror when a body is discovered, a few days later, and a new note appears, now with another name crossed off.

Plus Ex, Minus Zen

“There’s no drama in our wedding!” Zain could practically hear Radhika pouting over the phone. Raised on Bollywood and K-dramas, she’d always dreamed of whirlwind romances, family feuds, dramatic rain-soaked confessions — maybe even a runaway bride. Instead, she got calm parents and a genuinely nice arranged fiancé. Ugh.

But fate — and Zain’s poor life choices — had other plans.

“Hold on,” Radhika said. “Ayaan just texted me. He has something to tell me. About you.”

Zain cursed his past self for inviting his ex to the wedding. And giving him Radhika’s number.

Congrats, Zain. You finally got drama. Just not the kind Radhika wanted.

Surviving a Marriage

Marriage is hard, like all relationships.

Mahima knows that. What she doesn’t know is how to deal with a cheating husband and his narcissistic, son-coddling mother.

What she can’t understand is how she ended up in the same hotel room where her husband was supposed to meet his girlfriend…

Or why there’s blood on her clothes.

Or why her husband’s best friend is lying next to her, dead, drenched in blood.

Mahima knows one thing for sure: she’s about to be buried under a mountain of charges. And even ten years as a sharp, no-nonsense lawyer might not be enough to save her.

She has no idea who set her up.

But she knows one thing.

She has to get out—fast.

Swipe Right on Trouble

Dhriti’s a Tinder pro at spotting red flags — and this one’s blazing. Her date was supposed to be a guy,

but enter Faiza: stunning, confident, and very much not a guy.

It’s a catfish scenario, sure, but Dhriti’s real dilemma?

Faiza’s so hot, she’s making Dhriti question everything she thought she knew about herself.

Call the fire brigade, ‘cause Dhriti’s brain cells went from straight to straight-up lit on fire.

Unmatched, But Still Here

She’s debugging code. He’s plotting characters. Neither has time for love.

Nitya just wants her code to stop crashing. Abhishek just wants his screenplay to start slaying. But enter the ultimate parental side quest: a date for an arranged marriage setup.

Instead of awkward small talk, they hit back with the ultimate Uno Reverse—ignoring each other and diving into their own work mid-date.

Who said hustle culture kills romance? If Abhishek has enough rizz to break through Nitya’s firewall, maybe this “date” won’t be such a bug after all.

If you wanna request a user profile banner, hit me up. However, if I make the banner for you, you gotta use it for a month before changing it.

If you have a summary that you don't want to flesh out into a book, hit me up too, let's create more unhinged stuff.

That's it from my side, spread love and peace!

As always… Shibu…. tumhari creativity ki jitni tareef ki jaaye, wo kam hai.

All the tags, badges, siggies, book covers for actual books (you should write them too 😅) and for my stories on IF.. I am in absolute awe of the gorgeousness!❤️
