Blue Is The New Colour Of Suspense (Book Review)

Book: The Blue House In Bishop

Author: Sunanda J. Chatterjee

Publisher: Sunanda J. Chatterjee

This is my first book by the author and I have to admit, it was quite an interesting read. The Blue House In Bishop has romance, suspense, mystery, thriller and some bit of action too. The author has weaved all these elements neatly in the story with well-defined characters.

Described as a romantic suspense book, the story revolves around four main characters and their quest for finding the answers to their miseries. Alisha, Sunil, Duke and well a mysterious woman (not giving any spoilers here), who come from different directions settle down in the Blue House in Bishop. The author has vividly explained the various pasts and backgrounds of the characters and sensibly brought them all together where the main story awaits the readers.

The story is indeed gripping and can keep the readers hooked till late night only to find out what’s in store for the 4 characters. The writing is clear and crisp.

In other words, the story is about love and nursing and a broken heart; it is about falling and bringing yourself together to walk again.

Having said that, the climax feels a little rushed. A little more action on the drug lord’s element wouldn’t have hurt.

My rating: 3.5 Stars

I received a review copy of the Kindle edition under a review program by The Book Club in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.

Of Romance And Suspense (Book Review)

Image Credit Book: The Royal Roommate (Kindle edition) Author: PG Van Life is unpredictable. We plan many things but not everything happens as planned. Infact, most of the times life has surprises in store for us. The key is to play along and play it well. This is what you will find the protagonist -Amy doing in this book. Accepting the twists and turns life throws at her and running along with the stride. This the first book of PG Van that I have had a chance to read, and hence I didn’t have any set expectations. Good! The story is about Amy, a young intern with a law firm (oh that just doesn’t matter). Turns out her new roommate has been replaced by an irresistible, sexy, tall and handsome hunk - Sid (now that’s what is important, right). There begins a love and hate – push and pull kind of chemistry between the two. Needless to mention, lust and love (in that order) blooms in the room. Interestingly, Sid is a spy and Amy is his suspect. However, from suspe...
