Now, the Review Time – 

Praise – 

Leema Dhar is mature as a storyteller. Every time she brings with a fresh concept.  MOM AND I Love a Terrorist” is far different from the mush and sex which are flooding market every day. This book is a fitting reply to all those who writes only juvenile, mushy, novels liberally laced with sex.
The present story leaves one wondering whether it is fiction or taken from real life.

I really enjoyed each and every chapter without getting bored. The book is so gripping and page turner that something inside me didn't allow me to leave the book without finishing.

Author has done a great job with the concept of terrorism and romance. The atmosphere and beauty of Andaman is very well described throughout the book. I loved the way each and every character is defined. I feel connected. Author has given the perfect ending to the story. 

Book is written in very simple, yet effective language. What I loved most is diary entries which unfold secrets on every page of it. Her narration skills are awesome. And story is well knitted.

Kudos to the author for title and attractive cover page.

Flaws – 

I didn’t find many errors in book. If any is there, then that can be neglected as story is so gripping.

The quality of paper is very poor and it spoils the flow. 

 Summing Up – 

A Gripping book which doesn’t allow the reader to keep the book down until you finishes reading it. A complete page-turner. This book worth reading.

The book is good. And it is a far cry and welcome change from the mushy, inane college-romances flooding the market today.

It’s an engrossing book which comes recommended by HINDUSTAN TIMES (01.12.12). And it stands recommended by Read In Park!
