Review: Invisible Threads

Invisible Threads by Lucy Beresford
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

[Note: I won this book in Goodreads giveaway and this is my honest review.]

The story is about Sara who is trying to find out how her husband, a soldier fighting in Afghanistan, died in India.

In the story, the author talks about devdasis and how they are exploited and how she comes across these girls during her medical practice. Though she comes to India to search for her husband but ends up fighting for one of her patients.

The story is OK and I find it well researched. She has nicely captured the corrupt Indian system and the plight of sex workers and the deceased.

I give this book 4/5.

Review: Bangalore Chronicles: A Kidnap

Bangalore Chronicles: A Kidnap by Vinay Ramakrishna
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

[I won this book in Goodreads giveaway and this is my honest review]

The story of the book is OK but you will find that it is not something new. The first half of the book is a it slow but picks pace in the second half.

There are few loopholes in the story which are kind of acceptable to allow the writer to flex his writing skills. Original ideas are missing in the book.

I rate this book 3/5.
