                The plot was well written and I must say that it was a pleasure to read something different. Loved Author’s imagination and how the story is progressing from Day 1 when they plan to go on this unknown adventurous journey.

                The characters are well written and I must say that they were really determined during this whole journey. But it would have been great if we could have got a brief background of them wherein we could relate to them more.

                Language is simple and lucid and the readers will have no problem in going through the book.

                The cover page is very interesting and excellently depicts the plot. The title of the book is also apt to the plot.

                Overall, I would say that I had a wonderful time reading this book and going on this unknown journey with the characters and would surely recommend it to people who love reading adventurous books.

Rating: 4/5

However, one guilt is still constantly peeking its head out from time to time for Karthi. Karthi was once le...
