"Life is different when you are dating, True colors emerge only when you actually spend a life together"
It's a short book with eight shots to help tackle a wide array of mental and social obstacles.There is a different angle to the different moods of the women in each story. It feels like you are opening a door and a new story begins, then another opens, another story is starting, which I liked the most.Overall, all the stories are good but I like London Dream and liberated soul the most. If you are or were in a relationship then you may also find yourself in these situations.
It is written in very simple language so that readers can enjoy reading. This is a love story and relationship based book that won't let you get bored till the end

It's an anthology of eight short stories. The characters are all women, and the author's compassionate words weaved into short stories give a great insight into women's minds and moods. Each narrative is unique in its own way. Many things were relatable, which was my favourite part.
The stories cover a wide range of topics, including love, self-evaluation, social and mental boundaries, cheating, sadness during the Covid 19 pandemic, and a variety of other topics.
It's a short book, and I finished it in the evening while drinking my coffee. It's a terrific book for travelling or relaxing with a cup of coffee or tea. The wording is straightforward and easy to understand.
What can I say about the quotes? They were succinct and perfect.
The story ended suddenly, indicating that there would be a sequel, and I'm looking forward to reading it.
This is a good book for beginners, as well as those who have unfinished love stories or have experienced heartbreaks. It's also a good book for anyone who reads or wants to start reading.

📌Book Review
🔹 Do you like reading short stories? They're good and the best entertainment for a short time. Right!!!
🔹 Here's a book of short 8 stories. All stories are of women, 8 Women facing different aspects in life, having a unique character, what I like about the book is every story was showing a different perspective of a woman's life, from struggle to fun, from pain to love, heart broke to independent.
📌My take
✒ I found this interesting, because of the shortness of it, in very short stories the author has done good work on character building, simple and impactful language makes it a fast read, one can read this book anytime from any chapter.
📌Recommendation
🖊 To anyone who would like to read a book for some entertainment, you can do this while travelling, while sitting alone, or in some spare time. But it's really good for you if you're a beginner and wants to build reading habits.

Shots is a combination of 8 female oriented stories which includes love, lust, passion, motivation, etc.
Stories are immensely interesting, they kept you entertained and engaged till the last page. Entertainment quotient was so high that I took only two days to complete this book.
Each Shot is like different kind of female character. It does walk you through different shades of women and their natures.
Short stories are my personal favourite coz they don’t demand your dedication for longer time and yet gives you complete satisfaction. Likewise, author @nandk.agarwal has made it crisp, to the point and unique. I strongly agree to what author’s well wishers said i.e. every story of the book deserves a web 🌎
My personal favourites are “Love & it’s affairs and Love in silence” l also enjoyed beautiful drawings of the protagonist before respective story. I enjoyed every bit of it and I strongly recommend this one.

This is a collection of 8 female Oriented short stories. Why am I calling it female-oriented, because all 8 stories revolve around a female protagonist. I always call a collection of short stories a collection of emotions because each protagonist has different emotions, a different story, a different point of view. Likewise, this is also a collection of Love, Lust, Ambitions, Mental Turmoil, Fun, Heartbreak, and so on and on and on...
In this book as well 8 different leads, Neha, Meenakshi, Sneha, Sanjana all have different life, different problems, and also have different solutions to those problems.
All story names start with the letter "L":
𝐋ondon Dreams: It's a story about an ambitious woman Neha.
𝐋ocked Down: It's a story about Meenakshi a married woman to discover her true feeling.
𝐋iberated Soul: It's a story about Sneha, a free soul, who faces her emotional turmoil when she finally falls in love.
