  Book review 💯📖 ⭐ My Rating - 4/5⭐ The book " Sonnets to paradise " is a poetry fiction written by  Author   Nidra Naik . This book has its fictional story written along with sonnets. Most of them know what a poem is, but a very few know about Sonnets. It is nothing but a poem which is of 14 lines with a rhyming pattern. Now coming to the plot, it is a contemporary story which deals with two female leads named Nayanthara and Nicola, who are not connected to each other by any means but find ways to get linked to each other with the help of sonnets written by one among them. They both are quite different from each other and have their own differences yet the sonnets turns out to be a paradise that brings them together into a peaceful life they ever wanted to live in. In short this book is about the bonding between the protagonists in which the sonnets play a major role. The Cover looks feminine and attractive at a very first glance and the title does justice to t...
