An Interracial Love Story During Turbulent Times

Reenita has written a story about interracial love set in the background of colonial India. It’s an absolute page turner with a great twist near the end. I just couldn’t put it down and highly recommend it as a must read for everyone

Timeless And Thought-Provoking

Vermilion Harvest is set in a tumultuous and harrowing period of India’s colonial history that I knew nothing about. The story of Aruna and Ayaz is thrilling and timeless in showing how two people from different cultures can experience love in challenging circumstances. Aruna is a brave and independent woman and a keen interpreter of the political upheaval that threatens her community. Through her eyes, we understand the complexities and dangers of daily life in India in 1919 and appreciate how one woman of conviction dares to make a difference.

A Must Read!

Reenita Hora spins a beautiful and tragic story about young love struggling to survive in a colonized and divided India. Set in 1919, Vermilion Harvest is a deep dive into Indian culture and history during a period of atrocities committed under British rule that will haunt readers, leaving them feeling heartbroken, yet optimistic for a better future.

A Must Read!

I just finished this book a few days ago. It's a love story wrapped in a historical drama, highlighting the horrific tragedy at Jallianwala on April 13, 1919. This gripping page-turner taught me a piece of history that was new to me. I was hooked from the first page to the last one.

Forbidden Love In The Turmoil Of Colonial India

This story transported me to the India of the Raj. I was a voyeur in each meticulously painted scene, immersed in the milieu of the sights, sounds, smells and vibrant colours, watching a romance unfold despite the cultural challenges and political suppression of the British Empire. The love story grows. The political tension builds. A concerned mother's protective love is evidenced through the spicy flavours and smells of the kitchen. Something has to give. This is an engaging tale from beginning to end and well worth the investment of my time.

A fantastic novel for children with a blend of reality, fiction & mythical background that I read in a long time! It is a book about a 12 year old boy’s life, his troubles & thoughts are reflected through each page with precise details. I was intrigued by the book while reading it’s prologue and knew in an instant that I will have it on my bookshelf for sure (how I wish it happens with every book so I know where to invest my time reading in, however, unfortunately that is not the case with every book). It starts with a dream and that is where all the adventures & action take place.I simply love how the author has played beautifully with words and written an adventurous story-line on struggle, culture, roots & teachings of Ramayana. A story so well connected and reasoned, I don’t think there was a scope of picking out a mistake.

This book will have you laughing out loud. It will keep you reading into the night to see what life has in store for these lovable characters who leap off the page and capture your heart and your imagination. Reenita Malhotra Hora’s novel, Operation Mom: My Plan to Get My Mom a Life and a Man, is a highly recommended and delightful five-star read.
