The Things We Fear | A Book Review

The Things We Fear by Sharit Sinha

The Things We Fear By Sharit Sinha This one starts off with the dramatic incident of two collegians in the nearby Cemetery and the birth of Zombies.  Cut to their HGRE College where the quiet, brooding Harsh is bullied by the College Football Star Rohit and his cronies as his girlfriend Rita watches in glee.  A humiliated Harsh assaults Rohit not paying any heed to his timid friend, Deep as Lata, the college newspaper editor encourages him to fight back.  Enter the main college bully Rudra Pratap who thrashes Harsh for daring to hit his man, Rohit.  Talk about clichés galore. In an unexpected turn events, enters our Superhero and new entrant, Neel.  He’s here to do what he does best- fighting zombies, witches and vampires while also taking down the odd Bully or two.  Naturally the Ghostbuster soon becomes their Savior. A strange twist of faith results in this motley group of 6 suddenly finding themselves in a most unlikely adventure when they have to face their own deepest, darkest fears discovering strength, friendship and brotherhood in the most unrealistic circumstances as they rush to save themselves from the ultimate witch- Akshita.  Recommendation:  Having started off reading about Zombies, I was totally dismayed and skeptical about this one.  To make matters worse, the language wasn’t all that great.  It took me a good 100+ pages to actually start getting into the book despite its supernatural theme.  That’s when the story picked up with friendships being formed and inner conflicts being addressed.  The characters suddenly became a bit more interesting what with them having to deal with their inner most demons.  As they say, Horrors lie not just in the obvious ghosts and monsters but in ordinary people and their evil actions as well.   Rating: 2.5/5

A must-read for the readers who love the books with the air of mystery

Forgo by Jai T.J Okay… Forgo by the author Jai T. J. is one hell of a book. I was twisted into many knots throughout the book. I was awestruck if I would simply say. Full of surprises on every turn of a page! Forgo is going to keep you on your toes. Initially, when I started reading this book I was somewhat confused with the turn of events. But as the story unraveled, so did the story. The whole aura of the story felt otherworldly. The most part of the story of Forgo is set in Bangalore. Author Jai, sure knows what he’s doing. A master of storytelling, his narrative is spellbinding. However hard I tried I couldn’t get out of its clutches. The very first scene of the book is sure to give your heart a stutter. And a few pages in and you will be sucked into the vortex nightmares. Kudos to the author Jai, whose hard work can be seen in every minute details of the story. About the characters; I am speechless!!! Devin, his sister, Miss 55, and etc. They were mystifying. I had no idea what to make of them. Each character was a mystery to me until the very end of the story. Jai’s Forgo is a complete package of Thriller, suspense, and horror, which will grip you hard on its very sharp claws. Though the only thing I did not like about this book was the language. I wouldn’t say that it was hard or something, on the contrary, it was quite easy to understand, but it was a bit crude. Unfortunate, this is the case in most of the good books I get to read. And that, in my opinion, hinders the success of the book. Do I recommend this book to you? Yes, this is a must-read for the readers who love the books with the air of mystery. A perfect book to read in cozy winter nights. A 4 out of 5 stars read for me! .   .   .   .   .
