The books I picked & why

Book cover of If God was a Banker

Anurag Anand Why did I love this book?

If God was a Banker is Ravi Subramanian’s debut book and my personal favorite among all his works. The story centers around a multinational bank in India and an array of exciting characters that make up its management cadre. A heady mix of aspirations, passions, jealousy, and alliances result in the characters pushing boundaries of convention and sometimes even legality. The twists and turns that consequently emerge make the book a gripping page-turner.

Book cover of The Heist Artist

Anurag Anand Why did I love this book?

Vish’s writing provides true international flavours to Indian settings. The Heist Artist is a case in point that takes the readers from a plot to steal a Van Gogh painting, to the grimy underbelly of Uttar Pradesh politics. Vagh Pratap Singh, the protagonist, is a man with many shades and one can’t help but be intrigued by him as we slip into the story. The Heist Artist is a well-crafted story and a highly recommended read.

Book cover of The Secret of the Stolen Idols

Anurag Anand Why did I love this book?

The Secret of the Stolen Idols is Vivek’s debut novel, and it unravels as quite a surprise package. Lucid language, sharp characterization, and a pacy plot make it a story that lingers in your mind long after you are done reading the book. With his descriptions, Vivek brings to life a Goa that lies beyond the prying eyes of tourists, and one that is just as enchanting as its overt persona.

Book cover of Only the Good Die Young

Anurag Anand Why did I love this book?

There are times when we think that we have successfully buried something in our past and it suddenly resurfaces and shocks us. But what if this ‘thing’ wreaks havoc with our lives and turns it topsy turvy? Only the Good Die Young is a taut and gripping sequel to Akash Verma’s thriller, You Never Know. The book unravels beautifully, quite like a web series playing out between the craftily stitched words.
