BOOK REVIEW — A Touch of Eternity

“Never judge book by its cover” — I always followed this, I swear. But then one day I made a mistake :(

I mean just look at the book design. It’s so pretty. Akangsha Sarmah, you did an awesome job, this book cover design is like woooooooooow. Its the prettiest book in my little library.

I have read one or two Durjoy Datta’s book. Durjoy Datta’s A touch of Eternity was different than others. The books is about soulmates — Druvan and Anvesha, who are born at the same time, same place. The story book progresses in 2 parts — One were Druvan and Anvesha is growing up and crossing there own hurdles, and one were country is progressing in science, eventually, there was a breakthrough in reincarnation. So as the story progress, our soulmates are fighting a battle against death, and their only chance to survive and be together is to get into this reincarnation program.

The book started well, but frankly I lost interest as it progressed. Half way through I was bored out and tried to complete it somehow, because I wanted to know the end. And the end was not as expected, I couldn’t digest.

Durjoy Datta is no doubt a great writer. But this one was not a great hit for me. Good to see he has tried si-fi in his book, a different variant.

This is an okay okay book. Unless, you are a Durjoy Datta fan, I dont know how much one will like it.

All points go to Akangsha Sarmah, for designing such a lovely cover. I am her fan now. :)
