My Thoughts:

          The plot was engaging. I really loved how the author didn't really reveal who the main culprit was till the end. The suspense behind the murderer was made in such a manner that it will keep readers excited to find him or her on their own. I really like the writing style of the author.

            Characters are well-defined and relatable. We really get to see human nature through these characters. The hate, being revengeful, the misunderstandings, etc. all this can blind a person and make a person take a wrong decisions.

            The pace of the story is perfect with all the plot twists. It will keep the readers on edge throughout the book. The language is simple and lucid. The novel name is also very apt to the plot and the cover page is also relatable.
 
           Overall, I really enjoyed reading this book.

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?
