To know read 'Castle with Two Doors'

My Thoughts:

                The plot is well written. What I really liked about the book is that the readers will get to see the traditions that are being followed there, the various places that one can visit in Bangalore, the vast range of food that some of us might not have heard of which is very pleasant to read. There are many things that Akshara wants to know about Siddharth but he always ends up saying that it's a long which is a mystery for Akshara as well as the readers which makes Siddharth somewhat mysterious and will leave the readers guessing.

                The characters are well developed and I really liked Siddharth's character a lot. He is a person who everyone can rely on and wants to help everyone. Even after facing so much of problems and struggling he is still trying to be positive and do his best.

                The book cover is mysterious and would surely build up the curiosity for the readers and is apt to the plot. The title of the book is also apt to the plot.

                Overall, this was a good read.
