oracle_of_madness 's review for:
The Night of the Storm
by Nishita Parekh
This was a great read but, unfortunately, did not hit hard as a thriller.
Jia is a single mom of 12 yr old Ishaan. Her divorced status makes her almost a pariah due to her Indian culture. When Hurricane Harvey hits Houston, TX, Jia must take her son to her sisters home and into an unknown danger.
What I loved about this book was the intricate details on Indian culture and the different families/siblings' lives and relationships. I loved how in-depth the author went with each character's background. The main issue I have with this book was how the thriller aspect of the story just didn't have my full attention. However, as a family drama, this was excellent.
