Review : 8 hours by Upendra Namburi

Pages : 280
Publisher : Westland Books
ISBN : 9789386850041

Aratrika Reddy has 8 hours to save ARYA- her company. The vultures are swooping in from all sides. Past lovers, ex husbands, maniac billionaires – they want to rip ARYA apart and devour it .

Young, ruthless, unscrupulous, Aratrika is slowly becoming a spitting image of her father whom she hates. He has built ARYA along with Jagannath, his younger brother from nothing but dust and will go to any lengths to control it.

Aratrika needs to save her sprawling empire from falling into the clutches of the vultures and to succeed she will go to any lengths.

It is war and she is determined to win.

Though it’s fast paced , 8 hours does get complicated with too many characters and too many dialogues that sound repetitive. A lot of technical stuff with lack of adequate explanations for the layman as well as rapid fire dialogues laced with double meaning can get difficult to understand for people not familiar with the corporate world.

The book starts off on a promising note but over time it loses it’s edge.

It does however build up a nice, flawed heroine with secrets of her past that well haunt her present. She is fierce and fiery, with a hunger for power and a willingness to fight to the very end.

The story is fast paced and gripping and makes the reader want to find out how Aratrika saves ARYA, if at all.

Love,

Zoya 😘

My Rating – 3/5 stars
