 Book: Locked In by Iris Darshi

Story:

Jiya and Dev have been together for 5 years and married for 3 years. First year of marriage was beautiful but the last 2 were tearing them apart. They are now signing their divorce papers. Their lawyers who are their best friends too, lock them up in the conference room. They ask Dev and Jiya to talk to each other for just this 1 night.
How can 1 night untangle 2 years of misery they both have inflicted on each other? What was the cause of cracks in their marriage? Can just talking help?

Buy the book and Find out.

What I liked:

Intensity of emotions. First and best part of this book. The emotions are vivid in Iris Darshi's writing. You can feel the desperation of Jiya, anger of Dev, the panic of Jiya's panic attack, the fear for her in Dev,.. etc vividly in the words penned by Iris Darshi. Pulsating.

The tense air in the room makes you feel breathless. You hold your breathe while turning the pages, eagerly waiting for these two love lorn lovebirds to come mid way and find a solution.

I loved how as the talks progress you are taken deeper into the lives and minds of both Dev and Jiya. Loved how both seemingly Perfect people have cracks in their Armour and they allow only the chosen ones to see them.

This story shows: Beautiful outside, scarred inside. Each one of us is and how we need to honestly communicate with Our people.  I have turned lyrical :)
I learnt a thing or two about love, relationships, communication, etc with this book. Hope to apply it in real life.

I liked the format of the book. I dont know what it is called though.
It showed each instance from Dev and Jiya's perspective. So you can see how the views differ from each's POV. Hats off to carrying 2 narratives in one book Iris.

Short, sweet and lingering good feel book. Thank you for letting me review your book Iris Darshi.

What I wanted more:

The bonus chapter at the end is the perfect bait to ask for the next book soon. Prequel to this story? I have taken the bait. Gladly. Write faster or rather Publish faster.
