My take

Raghav Malhotra is an engineering student, who has all materialistic pleasures in life, and yet, is lonely. He craves for love and companionship. When he sees Siya, it's love at first sight for him. He feels he will walk into the sunset with her. But things are not what they seem to be. Siya is close to a guy, Akash.

Soon Raghav begins to obsess over Siya. The thin line between love and obsession begins to blur. He begins looking at Siya as an object to be possessed. And all hell breaks loose.

What happens next?

The Story is interesting. It is not the typical girl meets boy, boy meets girl and love happens kind of story. There is a touch of reality somewhere. How far can one go to get their means? What is the value of emotions? What is the value of friendships?

The author has beautifully caught the different emotions people go through when faced with adverse situations. The characters are strong and stay true to their nature. The language is easy to read.

The book cover is captivating.

Overall, an intriguing story of love and obsession. I rate it four stars.
