Sowmya's book world
3.5*

It was called as psychological thriller( it means you drink and forget stuff and remember in so many ways that reader get confused which one is true) . well that's what this book did to me.

Positives

*The ending of the book was good. There was a nice twist which lot of people may not expect it.

* pretty decent Thriller (Don't compare with Gone Girl )

Negative

* So many narrator to the story , it's good you can see it from many point but you don't know whom to trust specially having a alcohol

The Girl on the train was strictly average. Looks like Gone girl has inspired a lot of writers to try out more of that kind. Definitely I wouldn't recommend to people who likes to spend time with quality books ...more

Aah..Heavens! So much.. for the hype. One of the most lovely depressin books i ve ever read. Its a page turner (if ya havent turned to an alcoholic in d middle and decide to go to d nearest bar.. and can still turn d pages).. The suspense factor is low as the suspect can b narrowed down easily (too much of Christie does this to anyone). But there is a unique beauty in this sad...depressin..thriller that you may eventually like it at the end. Must read..
