My Thoughts:

                The plot is engaging and throughout the book author has successfully built mystery which will surely make the readers curious to know what is going to happen next. I liked how the author has showed us how all these things affects Arjun psychologically.

                The characters are well developed  and the readers can actually feel the emotions that the character feels with what is experiencing.

                Language is simple and lucid. The narration is done beautifully especially the concept of a ghost talking to our protagonist and taking him through the screen is nicely shown.

                The book cover and the title of the book is also apt to the plot.

                Overall, I really enjoyed reading this book and I am sure people who like reading sci-fi and fantasy novels will surely enjoy reading this book.

Rating: 4/5
