  AUTHOR:Preeti Shenoy

  RATINGS:4.5/5 Stars
  


                                                     



I enjoyed reading this book,i gave it a 4.5 stars the content was a little dragging in between which i did not like much... But i really liked the writting style. I like the character of Anjali, the author kept her character lively and interactive, But i did not like Shruthi as a character,i just could not relate to her character it wasnt lively..Overall a good story
i recommend this for a contemporary read
P.S : it has like just 20% of romance in it.

REVIEW: The Grownup by Gillian Flynn


TITLE: The Grownup
AUTHOR:Gillian Flynn
GENRE:Fiction,Thriller
RATING: 4.5/5 stars
                                                     

 One of the best book I ever read to be honest,absolute page turner though a quick read.

 
It has a curiosity raising and attention grabbing start.Every page has a surprise element ,Hats-off to the creative thinking and out of box way of writing an extra ordinary short story.She has written the story such that each moment you wonder “whats next..??”.Gillian nailed it. 
Review:
The story starts with the introduction of a young women who basically works as a receptionist for spiritual palms (running an illegal soft-core sex work in the back ).she introduce herself as a vision specialist to those women who come out there expecting a real fortune teller .

One day the young women gets a client who says he is ‘mike audley’ and he loved books he was a fan of “classic stories of the supernatural” and he recommended books to her as well like “the haunting of hill house”, “the woman in white”, since she loved reading too,they even made a private book club. She had to leave because someone else was waiting for her – ‘Susan Burke’,she has come to meet the vision specialist, they have a conversation and says there’s something wrong happening at her house .the young women asks her questions,susan has a stepson- she is asked if the problem at home is caused due to his stepson,susan pays her and leave the place.

  Four days later,susan visit the young women again asking “can things have auras.?”three days later “do you believe in evil spirits.? “and the next day.Susan says her stepson ‘Miles’ was never a sweet person and that he often troubled her and her son and they feel something’s wrong with him ,supernatural things seem to happen .The young women who does not believe in exorcism or supernatural,starts to believe in it when she feels that she’s being watched,every second in carterhook manor.

The story takes off in a breathtaking way,where we find ourselves deeply involved in reading,to know whats next out of curiosity.
