Book review 31: The Slut Chronicles by Kritika Sharma.





Kritika Sharma's book 'The Slut Chronicles: Betrayed'  is the first book of the trilogy. The book stresses on a very serious and sensitive issue. Women in our society are often victims of 'slut-shaming'. They are judged and are tagged as 'characterless' or termed as 'slut' by the judgemental and hypercritical society of ours.

This book tells the story of a successful and famous woman, Ishana. We come to know about her past life. How she had been in love and was betrayed. People around her in the big bad world try to pull her down. She has been slut-shamed and what not. Ishana faced really tough situations in her life which helped her to emerge stronger out of it. 
The story is so interesting that it kept me hooked to the book. It took me a few hours to complete reading this book. Every little incident is described very well in details. The characters are relatable as well. The narration is fast paced and the author has used simple language and hence is an easy, light read. The chapters are short and not at all draggy and boring. 
The ending has left me wanting to know more. I am extremely eager to know what lies ahead in the story, and I can't wait to read the next part of this gripping and interesting book.

Altogether, it was a great read. I really loved this book. 'The Slut Chronicles: Betrayed' is a perfect romantic thriller. This book is highly recommended to people who love reading books that belong to the romantic thriller genre.

Book Review 54: Satyayoddha Kalki by Kevin Missal.

Image
Satyayoddha Kalki: Eye of Brahma is the second book of the Kalki Series by Kevin Missal. The first book Dharmayoddha Kalki was quite interesting. The second part is no less than the first one. It's equally good. After I completed the first book, I was very eager to read the second book of the series. After the events that took place in the first book, this book begins with the events that follow. The book begins with the third part - The Coup at Indragarh. (The first two parts - The Battle of Shambhala and The Rise of Kali has been covered in the previous book). To make it easier for the readers, the author has provided with a brief synopsis of the first book at the beginning. The book begins with Kalki's escape from the execution and his journey to meet Bhargav Ram at Mahendragiri. Padma and Kripa accompany him on his journey. On his way, he faces various adversities. There are many subplots intertwined with the main plot. As the story progresses, it becomes more inter
