Secretly yours by Vikram Khanna – Review

Review of Secretly yours by Vikrant Khanna
Author: Vikram Khanna
Price: Rs. 125/-
Pages: 280
Genre: Romance, Thriller

I’ve not read any of Vikram Khanna’s previous books. Secretly Yours, he has a very simple style of writing and has filled his narrative with twists that make for a good potboiler. It is a romantic thriller with supernatural elements, that added the whole thrill of reading the book in a go.

The story revolves around the seventeen-year-old boy Sahil who falls in love with a mysterious girl called Anya. The story goes much beyond this and talks about suspicious multiple murders. Every murder happening in Shimla somehow surrounds around Sahil and Anya. They spend time together and Sahil expresses his feelings to Anya. Sahil is heartbroken and in a turn of events, he meets with an accident. It kills his grandmother and lands him in the hospital with a coma. When he recovers he gets the power to read minds. The accident brings him close to Anya. He discovers Anya and her gang’s secret and the mystery behind all the murders in Shimla.
However, the climax part was the most obvious one. More of a Bollywood style added in it.
Overall, it was a decent book. You’ll be hooked to it once you started reading it. I would say the book is good to read and will definitely recommend.

However, The Girl of my Dreams is a genre change for Durjoy Datta. The book is a Thriller with love and obsession as the central theme. The book is about the Protagonist, Daman who is facing challenges in life after surviving a deadly car accident. His girlfriend, Shreyasi, was with him in the car and he feels that because he was driving that day and he is guilty of her death.

Zadie smith: Book Review: Swing time

Author:  Zadie Smith Pages:  464 Price:  INR 599 Genre:  Fiction, Contemporary, Literary Fiction Swing Time  is Zadie Smith’s fifth novel and for my money her finest. A “best friend bildungsroman” in the Elena Ferrante mould, the novel tells the story of two girls growing up on the wrong side of town. Residents of neighboring housing estates in London, the pair meet at a community dance class, one (the unnamed narrator) clever and self-doubting, the other (Tracey) confident and self-destructive. As with the Italian bestseller, the talented friend is the tortured one – prematurely sexual, rebellious at school, ungoverned at home – while the less gifted is an able student, determined to make it out of the neighborhood.

For its plot alone,  Swin...
