-


📗BOOK: The N.G. Code
📗AUTHOR: Suman Mukherjee
📗GENRE: Suspense Thriller Fiction
📗THEME: Chief Minister's Assassination
📝RATING:
⚡Storyline- 4/5
⚡Literature- 3.8/5

📖PLOT:

Natle Gouse is a prized assassin who gets hired to eliminate high profile public figures. The job of assassinating the Chief Minister of Bihar was like any other task for him however the implementation and the aftermath changed his life forever.

No, he didn't get caught! Something far more astonishing.

IPS officer, Nirvaan Guha, is the star of his cadre and his series of successful operations has reached the halls of the Prime Minister. After 8 years, Nirvaan gets the task of finding the killer of the Chief Minister of Bihar but the revelation during the investigation turns his world upside down.


✒VERDICT 

🥇Pros: 

1) The structure of the plot is fantastical and unconventional. Many thriller stories follow a certain pattern in terms of storyline however in this case I can safely say that the plotline is different and unique.

2) The book gradually builds on the twists and turns some of which are mind boggling.

3) The author has induced unique flavours into the individuality of Natle Gouse and Nirvaan Guha while they chased around each other which made this book a fascinating read.

👎Cons:

1) In rare few places of the book, I found the punctuation marks to be misplaced and one or two sentences to be grammatically inappropriate.

2) I felt that the book could have been  made slightly more crisper by eliminating extra information. Though various information given in the book adds to the knowledge but in case of thriller genre, these additional information can break the pace. I skipped the additional information parts in some cases.

However, the overall language of the book is lucid and the plot is strong for which I can happily turn a blind eye to the cons.


💫This book has been a complete page-turner with an unconventional plot. I liked the fact that there were more to the characters than what they actually seems.

Book Review - Love is a Verb by Pramod Rajput

  Love is a Verb encompasses the trials and tribulation of maintaining a relationship after you have enjoyed your honeymoon period.  🕒This story is set in the 1960s era when being in love was tougher than falling in love. 🕓Manav is your quintessentially disciplined boy who is serious about his career and has his fair share of challenges. 🕝Enter Madhu, who is like a breath of fresh air and brought some colours to the life of Manav. 🥇I commend the author for crafting a realistic image of a relationship which is far from a rosy picture. The author has built a concrete plot justifying his title that Love is indeed a Verb which signifies physical or mental action. Love is more than the butterflies in the stomach or the abstract feeling of attraction. 🥇Any reader would relate to the challenges faced by Manav and Madhu who were navigating through long distance relationship and familial expectations.  🥇I also liked the subtle cultural background induced by the author in thi...
