Review Diaries (Door to Hell by Padmakumar)



Name of the book - Door to Hell by Padmakumar.
Stars given - 4 in 5 stars.
My tak on the book -
This book was one rollercoaster ride for me.
As someone who has gone through an acute phase of depression, I heartily vouch for the need to talk about your feelings and also seeking the help needed.
This is a story that talks about the past but all the while stays in the present.
The protagonist is not someone you will like much, you might sympathize in certain cases or even pity him but like will never come.
The story has many short chapters and it's very well written, grammatically speaking but there are times in the book you will want to be edited and made into a single line instead of an entire chapter.
The protagonist's love life didn't need to be so well detailed and that was my major problem with the story.
Everyone needs help once in a while, and you will feel that the guy from the story deserves it too, but trust me on this all those details will stop you from taking that step and lending him some empathy, we will make sure he gets help as human beings but he is too 'jaguar' like to warrant any warm heartfelt condolences.
