Why I Clicked this Photo – In the story there is a scene describing the falling Photo frames as an inhuman act. So I tried to make a small Frame using Ice-Cream sticks. And please forgive me for my utterly bad sketching skills.


Genre – Phycological Thriller.

Quote from the book I Liked – “Hope is what makes one refuse to give up on a journey. Without hope, it would just be an unending loop.” (Para 2, Page 89)

“Injury and Wisdom were soulmates, she not knew.” (Para 2, Page 57)


Stars – 3/5


About the Author – Novoneel Chakraborty’s books have touched thousands of souls across India. He is a full-time author, screenwriter and a blogger.


SynopsisEighteen-year-old Prisha Srivastav is a student of mass communication in Bengaluru. She meets a mysterious man, almost doubles her age, known as the Mean Monster in the city’s party circuit. Intrigued she falls for him and pursues him. However, there is one problem. Prisha doesn’t know that whoever the Monster loves, dies.


About The Book – The story is about a male Protagonist that goes by the name ‘The Mean Monster’ who lives a dual life, one as an owner of an NGO for women’s protection and other as a Sex Addict. The storyline hints again and again about the main plot by redescribing that the protagonist murdered his own Girlfriend even when they were in a Healthy Relationship. Then There comes another protagonist, a girl in her eighteen, who just went on with a Breakup and seeks for this Mean Monster.

What I felt was that the whole book is left incomplete and was broken into 2 parts (Forever is a Lie and Forever is True) just to increase its market sale as the Author and publishing house can club both the books into one. The story is totally left incomplete without any sense, one has to buy the second part which feels totally vague for such an author. So as from my point of view I can’t say I loved or hated reading this one but Unfortunately I have to get the other part to complete the whole story which could have been done in this book alone. So till then, the review is left unfinished and I will review both the Books (Complete Series) together as a One.


Verdict – Can’t jump on to verdict before I read the second part of the Series ‘Forever is True.’
