PRICE TO LOVE

a PRICE TO LOVE by smita das jain

I think the cover should have had something more intense like a couple holding each other or something along those lines.

BOOK DETAILS

Name: A Price to Love
Author: Smita Das Jain
Format: Softcopy (Kindle)
Number of pages: 248
Availability: Amazon (Buy the paperback here or the kindle version here)
Rating: 3/5

TITLE & SUBTITLES

The title got me curious to find out what the price of love could be.

LANGUAGE

The Indian-English language was easy and simple to understand.

BLURB

The story revolves around a self-centered woman named Sonia who seems to be lost in life. She is smart and ambitious but is disturbed and lacks self-esteem due to her troubled childhood. Her drive to always get her way lands her in a marriage she has second thoughts about. While she tries to balance work and home, she finds herself getting close to other men in her life. In her diary, as she pens down her thoughts, she often recalls her stepmother’s harsh words and takes many decisions in life only to prove her, and others, wrong. She ultimately quits working only to find that she suffers from DPD. And, how surprisingly supportive men in her life make her disorder easy to cure.

REASONS I LIKED THE BOOK

*It was simple and easy to read and understand.
*The story had a nice flow and was fast-paced.
*It brought out a message that parents play a huge role in a child’s life.
*It also tells us that we should fight and win our battles before we can bring up emotionally independent individuals.

AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT

*There were minor errors which could have been omitted.
*It was a simple story of a disturbed woman, perhaps not a genre for me.

FINAL THOUGHTS

This book was a one-time read about a disturbed woman being unfaithful and falling in love many times despite having an ever-supportive spouse. I was probably looking for more romance like in those Mills & Boons novels, nevertheless, it was a nice read and kept me wanting to know how this woman’s life goes on.

    A disturbed woman with multiple partners is quite a bold concept to write about. Not sure if this is my type but I sure find it intriguing enough to pick up.

    From your blurb, it sounds like a contemporary life story. The protagonist is from a disturbed family and then has affairs. If she is falling in love many times, what is the price of love? Even I am all for the happily ever after kind of romance stories.

    Great post! I just finished reading “A Price to Love” by Smita Das Jain, and I have to say it was a truly captivating read. The way the author has woven together the themes of love, family, and tradition was truly impressive. The characters were well-developed and relatable, and I found myself fully invested in their stories. The writing was beautiful and I couldn’t put the book down. Thanks for introducing me to this amazing book.

    I really enjoyed reading the book review. I thought it was well-written and informative. I liked how the reviewer gave their opinion on the book, but also included some background information on the author and the book itself. This helped me to understand the reviewer’s perspective and made me want to read the book even more. Overall, I thought this was a great review and would recommend it to anyone considering reading the book.
