This was pretty good! I don't love fated mates, which this one skirted quite close to (without ever saying those words), but I thought the way that was handled was interesting - it examined that trope through a more skeptical lens, so the way the relationship eventually ended up felt more natural to me.
Orgasmic blood drinking always gets me, and there is a lot of it. The author knows why you're reading this book and leans th …Read More

A quick and entertaining read, 400 Days brings back Bhagat’s detective duo, Keshav and Saurabh, in a kidnapping case that blends mystery with Bollywood-style drama. The pacing is tight, the writing easy, and the Indian setting relatable. While the romantic subplot feels unnecessary and the climax underwhelms, it still works as a light, timepass thriller. Not Chetan Bhagat’s best, but worth a weekend read.
