Reading
novels from the debut authors is always exciting however most of the times it
becomes a nightmare to finish; I think you understand what I mean to say here.
Most of the debut authors now write out of desperation to get published and
after failing to get the book approved by some publisher they opt to self
publish and pay for that, results are disaster for the authors and readers as
well.
This novel changed the perception!
To start
with, the cover page and quality of the book is international standards. I was
impressed, it is very important for any reader to feel good, carrying the book
with them. Full score should be given for the designer of the cover and publisher
for giving a quality print and pages.
Reading the
blurb at the back side of the book gives a glimpse of this book to be a love
story however it is not just a love story. Reading the first chapter set the
mood when one of the characters was laid off his job and was sitting in the
bar. It is a perfect kick start for the story. The character, Aditya, lost his
job due to recession and is sitting at the bar with last of his money. He met a
lady, Radhika and his life changes drastically after that meeting.
Story line
is good however I found that the story was not moving straight, the author
chose to move the story more in a zig-zag approach.
I liked the
way the story is narrated, author definitely maintained the grip on the story
line and as a reader I enjoyed reading the work. The author managed to mark his
presence. Characters were defined well and the plot of the story was also
managed well which keeps on swinging from past to present.
I was not
fully satisfied with the editing work, at some parts the short sentences
becomes evident. At times, it is very important to manage a flow in delivery;
short sentences gave it a break at times.
A good
read. I would like to congratulate the Author and the Publisher for giving a decent read after a long time.
Looking forward to read more from them........
