Everyone Has A Story by Savi Sharma

Yes we all know everyone has a story. Rather I believe everyone has an extraordinary story to tell. But all I read was a normal love story or may be not even a love story. I felt the truth was missing somehow. There was a lot of things n less expression. As if there was a hurry in completing it. It had everything to make it a great story but time. Even the travel details were vague. I mean who gives those kind of advice to strangers? Please. The worst was the fall n for God's sake 8 months in hospital? So heartbroken ...

Oh I didn't know he can pen down such suspense. I was ready for another love story yet it turned out to be a thriller. Yes may be I'm obsessed with his novels but let it be. I kept a tab on how many pages are left just because I wanted to be ready for twists. Good job sir. Please keep writing.

This is definitely a good read but in the end I had a feeling that there's a huge scope to make it better. The author had certainly did his research, he was able to build the story but all in vein. I couldn't find any connection between the first chapter and the rest of the book. He build up the story so nicely just to end it abruptly all in hurry . That's heartbreaking. I know this is the 1st book of a series. Why sir did you finish it in such a hurry. I wish I could say I can reread this one. Such nice narration such great build up. All the characters were just prepared to see the end but it just end abruptly.

I started reading this piece after my sister literary threw it to me for the millionth time. And thank God I did. I was under impression that I'm matured enough to pick up another young adult book. Oh how wrong I was.
This is the perfect blend of adventure, action, dreams,love,hope,romance..actually everything one can think of to feel good, to feel alive that too in perfect balance.
Yeah yeah after 30 pages or so I called up my sis and ask is it just this narrative or something else is going to happen? She was like just keep going for another 20.
I called after finishing it with a mixed feeling. Thanks a lot @ujani.
All I feel now is "I rather die on an adventure than standing still"(Lila)
