Review
This is first Ravi Subramanian book I have
read and I loved the way he has written the book. Use of simple language,
twists and turns in the story, apt introduction of real life individuals like
Anurag Kashyap, Chetan Bhagat, etc and happenings like Ebola scare in story are
some of the highlights of the book which keeps the reader engrossed and feel
real.
This book keeps the reader guessing
till end “What will happen next?” This is one book which I couldn’t stop
reading till its end. While reading I could actually visualize each scene in
front of my eyes, especially the revelation part at end. The way the story has
been written taking care of each and every minute detail, each character, their
behaviors, their insecurities etc. has been finely written.
This book is typical Bollywood masala
movie material. But it’s a must read for all aspiring authors as this book
provides insight of how publishing and marketing of a book works.
In short if you love romance and
suspense you will love it.
What
I didn’t like …
It would have been better if something
more was written about Sanjay and Shreya’s lives; like Shreya’s childhood, her
relationship with Sanjay etc.
Other
than that, the book is good, enjoyable read.
