The Game of Death by Himanshu Rai

The Game of Death by Himanshu Rai is a psychological thriller that grips the reader from the very first page. The novel introduces us to Aliza, a seemingly ordinary schoolgirl whose life takes a dark turn when she receives a mysterious diary. The diary, linked to a missing classmate, Amrit, draws her into a sinister game where reading is the only way to save him. With each page, she uncovers chilling secrets, eerie messages, and life-threatening tasks that make it impossible to escape.

The narrative is intense, blending suspense, horror, and psychological manipulation. The use of expectation as a central theme adds depth to the plot Amrit’s struggles with parental pressures, societal norms, and personal identity resonate deeply. The author crafts an unsettling atmosphere, where every character is suspect, and even Aliza’s own family seems to be hiding secrets.

Despite its engaging premise, a few pages seem to be missing, making some transitions abrupt. This, however, adds to the eerie effect, making the reader feel just as lost as Aliza. The storytelling is immersive, though some moments feel slightly exaggerated.

Overall, The Game of Death is a compelling, fast-paced read for those who enjoy psychological thrillers with mind-bending twists. It leaves readers questioning reality and the true cost of expectations. A must-read for fans of suspenseful, dark narratives.

I love being creative and have loved to write since a young age. Introducing myself feels strange right now. I am still in the process of rediscovering who I am in the midst of being a widow and a mother, a journey I think all mothers face. I am much more interested in the company I keep than where I want to be. It doesn't matter where I go, as long as I am around people I love. I spent many years traveling, being very mobile and sometimes homeless so I enjoy my little house and the stability and coziness it gives my family. Maybe one day I will be open to exploring again, but for now I am enjoying the calm of four walls.  2. When did you get the thoughts of writing this book?  Answer:  This book, And Then I Laughed, is the cul...
