A real entertainment
This book seems to have been inspired by Fredrik Backman's My grandmother asks me to tell you she's sorry. The book has a brilliant punchline with an epic story that is an exception.
A 25-yo receives secret letters from her mother which holds secrets from their bloodline. Secrets that are unknown to historians. These shall be maintained in order to save their bloodline.
The cover could have been much unique. A very intriguing book

Letters of a Bloodline - Book 1: Maya's Confession: A shocking thriller of your families 15000 years old mystery is a story.
This is a page-turner. The author has beautifully connected the plot between the prehistoric times and modern age.
The story starts when the protagonist receives an email from his mother attached with five hundred letters as a gift on his twenty-fifth birthday. Those letters are given to solve a hidden secret (a mystery) of his bloodline. This incident pokes the curiosity in the reader's mind and turns the book into a good read.
- The title is long but gives us that needed the interest to pick this book.
- The plot is intriguing and the narration is innovative. The idea altogether is very fascinating that is to know about our ancestors.
- Out of all, I loved the letter by Santiago and Carol's father a lot.
Overall, I would say a very interesting read and I am eagerly waiting to read further letters.

Intriguing!
This book is about how the secret history of Maya's family is handed down through letters over the generations that have passed. Each new generation adding other details along the way.
The book is all about what Maya finds in those letters and how she interprets them. They become her most treasured items as she heads off on a search for her missing mother.
Questions arise and she keeps trying to find the answers in her letters. Should she speak to anyone about them? Is she allowed to? Will she be safe if someone finds out about the existence of these letters? Do other bloodlines have similar letters?
To know the answers to all these questions, I suggest you read the book!
The language is a bit hard to follow at the start as you adjust between the letters and Mayas' confessions but you get the hang of it in a while.
The book cover is intriguing and catches your eye right off the book shelf.
It's a beautiful book with words written so calculatedly, it feels right at all the twists like it was supposed to happen and that it was inevitable.

Edge of the seat reading!
Letters of a Bloodline : Book 1 - Maya's confession was much awaited after the first book in the series - Letters of a Bloodline : Book 0 - Thicker than Blood. While Book 0 left you longing for more, Book 1 fully lived up my expectations! The book takes you through the journey of 4 characters (First Mother - the blind cavewoman, Santiago - the Argentine rancher, Carol - the reader's genius grandmother and Maya) of the bloodline keeping you invested in the highs and lows of each character's story. The twists and turns in the story are unexpected and keep you gripped till the end. Whether you enjoy mystery, drama, history, romance or science fiction, this book gives you all flavours and hence makes it difficult for anyone to put down. I still cannot make up my mind about which out of the four is my favourite story! Kudos to the writer for such a fascinating read!

This book felt like it was everywhere and it was a little confusing for me at first. But the narration is great. So after some point in the book it all just comes together and starts making sense. I really liked the story and the ending too. This book is the perfect blend of thriller and mystery, it will keep you hooked throughout the two parts. I wish the cover would have been more attractive, so people will be immediately drawn to it and pick it up.

Outstanding!
This was one of the heart-wreckingly beautiful books I have ever read. The story revovles around the main protagonist Maya and her family's secrets through the letters running through generations.
The storyline progresses as such when Maya on her 25th birthday gets a strange gift. A mysterious email from her mother with links to hundreds of letters. They’re secret memoirs of her ancestors, passed down the generations of her bloodline. She finally inherits a family secret that’s fifteen thousand years old!
Absolute secrecy keeps the letters safe – and her bloodline alive. Some letters hold shocking truths of history, unknown to anyone else.
The author Jay Puranik is master in storytelling. I appreciate his expertisation in narration. Overall, with an apt title and outstanding cover, this book is a fantastic read.
My rating to the book : 5/5

Book title : Letters of bloodline. Book 1: Maya's Confession.
If you are looking for a book with a new and fascinating idea of thriller, mixed with the blend of conspiracy, search no more and grab a copy of 'Maya's confession'.
The story commences on an interesting note where we find our protagonist receiving a rather mysterious email from her mother on her Twenty-fifth birthday. The email has letters dated back from 13000 BC. They are secret memiors of her anscetors passed down the many generations of her bloodline. Absolute secrets are confined within these letters which is gradually unveiled in bits and peices by our principal figure. The storyline is divided into four parts which makes it all the more intriguing and conjecture develops at the end of each one.
Part 1 of the story, SHE DREW, totally hooked me. The readers find a blind cavewoman , The First Mother looking for her caveman along with her children. This part of the story had us in its vivid description of maternal instincts, immense bravado of the mother and emotional strength within her mind.
Part 2, FÜHRER'S REGRET, connects the story with modern contemporary history of World War 2 which raises the curiosity of the readers.
Part 3, named , THE OTHERS reveal the incredible life story of our protagonist's grandmother. With this part, the book takes a turn and the readers get tempted to go on reading and live a separate life through these letters.
Part 4, under the title MAYA'S CONFESSION is equally tempting to read as many secrets get unveiled and many stones are turned to open up the obscured past, through the letters of lady's own mother.
Each part of the story is followed by a short note which links each ending to a new beginning.
Overall, I enjoyed reading it and couldn't keep the book down for much long intervals.
The writing style of the writer , coupled with the unexpected plot makes this book absolutely worth reading.

Pages : 338
Format : Kindle
Book review :
A fiction book and 1st in it's series.It has Book 0 to understand the basics but not mandatory as this is complete in itself and doesn't need any reference.
Protagonist Maya on her 25th birthday got an unusual gift.Her mother fled away leaving behind 500 letters link on her mail as a gift.
These letters are not simple as such.It contains mystery in each of them.
Each letters resemble the life of the generation.It symbolise the bloodline.The letters were being written by every one and then passing them to the next generation as this time Maya receives from her mother.
The language and writing styles clearly shows the changes occured during these evolutions since 15,000 years.
Now it was Maya's turn to unmask the secret behind these and solve the mystery.
So,what was the secret???
Why letters are being passed on for generations???
Will Maya be able to unmask and solve the mystery???
What is the secret hidden in her past???
What was her ancestral past and secret linked to??? To know all these queries please grab a copy and do give a read for sure.
It's very engaging thriller,suspense,mystery book.
Book is full of letters all that Maya receives.
The remarkable job done by the author is by writing different style letters so that it reflects that it had been written by different people of different era.
The content of letters are sometimes repetitive as they have to give info. to next so that part become slightly slow and boring otherwise all good and plot has it's grip on readers.
Language is easy to understand the plot and storyline.
Cover page is relatable .Title justifies itself.
Overall a good deal to read.
Would like to recommend it to all.
Happy reading guys!!!

Title - Letters of a Bloodline - Book 1: Maya’s Confession A shocking thriller of your family’s 15,000-year-old mystery
Author - Jay Puranik
This book is not like any other imaginary story.
It's on an whole another level.
The author has created a plot which has the connection from 15000 years old era and it is beautifully connected with today's era.
And trust me when I say this, when you'll read the first chapter, you'll get addicted to know what happens next and you'll not be disappointed by what you read.
The way First Mother has talked about her experiences is just amazing. And Then their Caveman was shown a very secrecy filled guy. They used to call their husband as Caveman's.
First mother's children were all a perfect definition of family Love.
And who was that creature?
He was able to gift the First Mother eyesight for the fraction of seconds who was initially blind. Can you imagine.
That content about that creature was what made me interested to read further.
And then Maya confessed it all to her chosen Son.
Yep to gain acces to all this information you must be chosen.
And I'm impressed by author's imagination and the way he has plotted it in words.
All their ancestors who were also chosen were able to add comments of their own in these 500 letters.

This book is not like any other imaginary story.
It's on an whole another level.
The author has created a plot which has the connection from 15000 years old era and it is beautifully connected with today's era.
And trust me when I say this, when you'll read the first chapter, you'll get addicted to know what happens next and you'll not be disappointed by what you read.
The way First Mother has talked about her experiences is just amazing. And Then their Caveman was shown a very secrecy filled guy. They used to call their husband as Caveman's.
First mother's children were all a perfect definition of family Love.
And who was that creature?
He was able to gift the First Mother eyesight for the fraction of seconds who was initially blind. Can you imagine.
That content about that creature was what made me interested to read further.
And then Maya confessed it all to her chosen Son.
Yep to gain acces to all this information you must be chosen.
And I'm impressed by author's imagination and the way he has plotted it in words.
All their ancestors who were also chosen were able to add comments of their own in these 500 letters.
It was a real page turner and even though it is a little lengthy, you can finish it soon because of the interest it generates in the reader's mind.

Title: Letters of a bloodline ( Thicker than blood).
Author: Jay Puranik.
Genre: Fictional adventure.
Book review.
The story revolves around the ship crew whom were in search of unfolding Egyptian Secrets. Story starts with year 1692 in Indian Ocean. I thought this book was brilliant and superbly well written by jay puranik.
The book has some great set pieces. But I couldn’t follow some of these sections, so
I couldn’t determine whether the basis of the ideas was sound or meant to be fiction. Overall , The book is base don ships, captains and pirates. There are few interesting characters like Captain Ramirez of Ship Devil’s dame, Carlos, Snake eyes etc.
This book was unlike any other classic I’ve read so far and was a truly curious and remarkable concept. The writing style is descritive and engaging.
Rating:4

I have forever been a sucker for thriller mystery stories, (other than love stories, definitely 😉) and this one has been exactly one of a kind read for me. The story line is amazing and kept me hooked up to it constantly. The story begins when the protagonist received a mail from his mother where he found an attachment of five hundred letters which she sent as a gift to him for his 25th birthday. These letters are said to reveal a deep secret of his bloodline. This becomes a turn point for me and have kept me hooked on it till the end.
The writer had pulled this off really really well. And I so loved and enjoyed reading it. And I would definitely recommend it to all the ones who love ready thrillers.

Oh My God! Right from the acknowledgement to the last page, the book has kept me hooked.
This was such a unique read. All four of the stories were wonderful. It is all the blend of history, thrill, drama, suspense, love and hate as well.
The concept of book is very much unique and never thought off. The letters Maya suddenly gets of all her ancestors and bloodline right from the start and the responsibility that comes with it to maintain the secrecy to continue the bloodline, the bitter truths and the shocking facts, its all to much to take as a birthday gift.
The Mystery and suspense, the smooth narrative, the flow, the total engaging and captivating plot, it all made up for a great read. The theme of the story was totally unpredictable.
The title was perfectly suitable and i think that the cover was simple and chic. I liked it.
All in all, a great read.

The story developing through a series of letters. The parent written letters for a child. The letters are so touching and warming. The letters and plot sinking very well. Letters have secret nature, and confidential. Story of the book moves around 15000 years ago showing the secrets of her bloodline. This letters carried by a different generation, in 21century letters reached as an email with protection. By reading all these letters may realise she has to do something.
It's a very interesting and twisting plot.
The language is easy.
The plot was still holding enough portion of my mind. The way of narration, story play. Deep explanation about circumstances is giving an excellent experience like watching a movie. There are no unwanted characters so I can say that editing of the book was just perfect nothing less not more. he made readers curious throughout the story.

This is the second book of the series of Letters of the bloodline. If you haven't read the first book you cant connect with the story. The first book was really thrilling and fast paced. Even now when I am writing about that book I can remember everything and it feels like a movie is going on in front of me.
This book is about the letters from the ancestors and through these his mother wants to tell the author about everything what happend and why. With a pinch of thrill sprinkled on it and the twist and turns makes it unputdownable.
Like the previous book this is also fast paced
and the writing style is simple. The author has his grip through out the book. With a strong vocabulary this book has become an interesting read.
The cover is really attractive.
