First of all, Im not here to review about the story or the novel(book) of sajiths and Barnali as I have not read the whole story yet. I may not give full justice to know half knowledge of the book by giving a half done review of it. My only intention is to review on what to expect in writing a book, the pros and cons on the novel and the author, sajiths and Barnali. Allow me to start this review in a poetic way. *
*The Review:
A song will not be music unless it has lyrics, melody and an artist to sing it.A poem is not a poem unless a poet writes some lines for people to read and appreciate.A book is not a book if its only the cover and the pages you will see.There must be a writer.an author to write a story to tell, topics and ideas or anything and everything under the sun.And a story that has been written, is as good as nothing and useless, if nobody reads it. But a story that was written and a reader wrote a review out of it, have surely gained interest and attention from its readers.
The song, the poem, the story- they have one thing in common. the lyricist, the poet, the writer/author or whatever you will call it. They are the one that give color, love, mystery, suspense, thrill and beauty to the story.in short they are the one that give life to the masterpiece they have created. Be it a drama, comedy, horror, or simple lines or quotes that one wrote; the writer plays the biggest role to make the masterpiece effective to his/her audience or readers. What Im trying to tell here is that, a novel written by our two prominent MSian members whose ids/ names is hermit and rainbow. They have given birth to their literary baby project they called, " Rainbow The Colours of Love."
As we all knew, its not out in the market yet, but it has already gained lots of attentions from fellow MSians and other people . As you open the homepage in the website they have created, you will see visitors coming from other corners of the world. Some came from USA, Poland, Japan, Philippines( my country) just to mention a few. I have seen and read the excerpts, prologue, synopsis, testimonies, comments and many more. and even the poll of book cover. Its done in good taste although some punctuation marks and redundancy of words in some aspects are obviously there. But a proof reader can do magic on it. But the whole thing is just great for an amateur author and as a first timer to venture a 400 pages novel to say. One can understand why three of our fellow MSians already wrote a review out of it. The website is even more interesting and beautifully crafted as the womb of the baby project- the novel!
Allow me to share two comments from the website which says.
- Comment on- Making of the Rainbowby: Gee_gall 1 week ago
Looks like the rainbow came down from the lovely clouds to spread the colors to its readers. A combined efforts of two talented people far from each other is really something to give a genuinestanding ovation. The reviews of Paul and Hemani are also an added attraction to make this book more interesting. After all what has been said and done, there’s no reason that this will not sale like hot cakes in bookstores and malls, this I believe. You just need to have more venue to advertise it and make it known to the public. Plan for a book signing and give flyers, once its out in the market. You’re doing great anyway.
I may not be a bookworm reader but being an incurably romantic woman, I’m sure I will be glad to get hold one copy of this novel.
All the best in all your plans.
God bless you both that this book will be a great succes.

WOW. I just love the title, hopefully to read it soon.
The poem are just enchanting, magical and romantic.
Three claps for the poem dear Sajith and Barnali.

Those are just among the many comments you will read in their website. And being a writer or an author is no joke, especially if you dont have the gift of writing or you’re not really a writer by profession. What Im trying to say is, not all writer has an inborn talent writing a masterpiece. The pros and cons whether you can make it or not, is the dilemma of most writers and authors. Not all authors make it huge in the world of writing. Just like in painting where there are are painters who has the midas touch in painting, even without proper schooling in fine arts and painting classes. They have by birth, the God given talent that they dont need to excert too much effort to paint something that could launch a thousand words. Same is true in literary world. Some writers are a trying hard writer(that includes myself), to write something, because writing is one of their passion. But born writers have that special gift that they can see or write a story even in the tiniest creatures like ants. And in the case of Barnali and sajiths, they are not the victim of circumstances but they make circumstances happened the way they wanted it to be, as a writer. They didnt stop just being a writer in Mouthshut. They wanted more, which only shows how passionate they are in their love for writing. And the biggest surprise to us all, is the coming out of their book, which I have mentioned already the title above as, " Rainbow The Colours of Love"
For Barnali and sajiths, it was worth the wait after a year or so in the making. As they co-authored this novel- their pet project, its now subject for public scrutiny. Either constructive or destructive criticism. As an author, they should expect that some people are trusting and friendly to give suggestions or advice. Some may just shrug their shoulder off with just a little belief that you can make it. Others may possibly praise or fake their praises, but most importantly, no matter what- take the criticism constructively no matter how much vitriol or harsh comments you get. Just brace yourself and learn from the initial angry waves of criticism, just reply politely if its worth it. The significant feedback is necessary to know the limitations or shortcomings of your work, as long as it will not destroy the essence of the whole story. And hope it does not disappoint the innovative idea of letting it out in the market.
The reviews on the book of Barnali and sajiths, have encountered some dilemmas, pros and cons but I firmly believe and appeal to fellow MSians to spread the good news of our two passionate writer. Let us give them the chance to be among the watch list of successful authors in India, and the neighboring countries. A must buy book when it comes out in the market. Lets show our support in their efforts to continue more Rainbow colors in the coming more books that they are planning to write. I may not be the right person to criticize(constructive criticism), but together lets help that may the SPECTRUM of RAINBOW SPARKLES by sharing its magic! Everyday is a new day of hope and success.
God bless.
