Dare to Shine by Kamini Kusum, as the title aptly suggests, is a compelling collection of stories celebrating twenty remarkable women changemakers. The book brings together narratives of both well-known figures and unsung heroines whose contributions to humanity are truly extraordinary. Each story offers an intimate glimpse into the lives of these strong, resilient women who defied countless odds and, through unwavering courage and integrity, proved that loss is merely an illusion. Over the course of life, perseverance and righteousness lead to triumph—eventually.
While every story in the collection is inspiring, I enjoyed reading those featuring lesser-known personalities. Stories of familiar figures are often already well-documented, but discovering the journeys of unsung women added depth and freshness to the reading experience. The language is simple yet impactful, and the narration flows seamlessly, making the book both engaging and accessible. I have long admired the author’s work, and this collection further reinforces that admiration.

If you are seeking an inspirational read, a thoughtfully curated collection of short and meaningful stories, or enjoy women-centric narratives, this book is well worth picking up. The inclusion of lesser-known women makes it not only inspiring but also deeply enriching and informative.

My Rating: 3.5/5
