My Thoughts:

                I loved the plot especially the conversation that both Jay and Cassy have with each other. I liked how the author has described this whole long distance relationship. Being in a long distance relationship Jay decides to be committed to his work but at the same time he is missing Cassy a lot. I loved how the author has blended the poetries beautifully in between.

                The characters are well developed and relatable. The fact that we get to read the conversation between the two makes it more unique. Their talks enable us to know what they are as human beings and their emotions. These conversations also make us more close to them.

                Language is simple and lucid and the narration and the emotions are depicted beautifully.
                The book cover is very beautiful and almost tells about the plot. The book title is also apt to the whole plot and somewhat gives us a hint about what to expect in the book.

                Overall, it was a very cute read and I enjoyed it a lot.

My Rating: 4/5

Dancers in the Dark Author: Ejaz Ahamed Pages: 298               After reading this book, the very first thing that came to my mind was, ‘Is there humanity?’ If yes what is humanity?
