The Dying Day by Vaseem Khan

1.0

When I started this book, I was more than excited because the prequel seemed very interesting but this book was a blunder. Too much repetition of the same old plot.

It’s good that men are writing about women and sharing their support with the feminist movement but this was messed up. I have started hating Persis because she’s too stubborn and self-obsessed that she eventually wipes off the efforts of men who try to help her. No, that’s not how feminism works. Totally mislead and a twisted agenda is present over here.

Plus, how on Earth the villain holds you on a gunpoint and starts a two-hour long tirade about his life journey? Seemed so pointless. Actually EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS BOOK SEEMED POINTLESS. I don’t know why did the author choose to write a sequel when he couldn’t collect his thoughts together and god knows why he felt the need of making unnecessary connections out of nowhere.

This single book is about Italy’s history, events of the holocaust and after that, narratives of the survivors of the holocaust, some stupid love triangle details (Totally unnecessary), freemasonry, art history, psychology, architecture and even about a tea maker’s exceptional tea making skills but everything seems so stuffed and unnecessarily stretched.

P.S: If I would be a writer for this book, I would have ended it right on the 100th page. Rest of the pages were added for I don’t know what reason. I am disappointed, heartbroken and extremely agitated!!!
