My Review
The Broken Sun is a story
of a boy who lost his love in every possible way , be it getting love from his
own biological mother , be it his biological father who reluctantly ignored him
like a shit or his girl friend whom he loved and stayed with her for six years
. He lost all , may be he was too small to understand why her mother left or
may be he was too baffled to accept the on going changes around him . And then in
few hours his life turned upside down completely leaving him in a fix and
disdain .
Author Alokita Sharma , has appropriately chosen the
title of the book ‘ The Broken Sun ‘ it says all once you are done with the
book . The Broken Sun , story of ‘ being shattered ‘ . The cover of the book
was very catchy for me , it revels the pain and the hatched revenge . Being
romantic thriller , the cover suits the best .
Anay , a kid who lost his mother when he stepped to the
stage where he started to learn and study about the surroundings , a loner lover , a perfect boyfriend but
then something happened and his ‘ Best Boyfriend ‘ tag changed to ‘ Worst Boyfriend
‘ but in all this happening he cursed the man , whom he needed the most and who
had all his answers to his questions about his life , his ‘ father ‘ . Anay ,
being the protagonist , I found him the most potential character of the book . Author
had perfectly penned him !!
The second character I enjoyed was Mithya . While reading
her , I was really occupied with couples of names , who are living and lived
her lovelorn life . Sometimes the karma happened for a reason . When we say not
to neglect the things , we really must not do that because we really are
clueless about the people which may get effected due to our deed . And so
Mithya was . A gullible heart which turned like a stone .
There were many portions where I enjoyed a lot but the
favorite one was the diary of girl who had her love of life with her but he was
not there, she wanted everything back to normal but the destiny has treasured
odds for her . The other one was the struggle of a mother , how she left the
world just let her only son live .
The overall the story was good but sometimes I felt the
thriller portion could have been better and some portions confused me . The
author could have added few more words to the stories so that the book could be
a more better . Apart from this , the book require strong editing which creates
obstacle while reading to me .
The book was good, I loved the synchronization of past
and present in the book . A strong point! . The language was simple and
readable . The book was completed in a single sitting and the last few pages were
worth page turner.
I rate the first installment of The Broken Sun series 3/5
rating . Good job Author .
