"Bestseller she wrote" by Ravi Subramanian. This book is published by Westland in Oct 2015 and has 372 pages. This is author's 8th book.

Aditya Kapoor, an alumnus of IIM Bangalore (IIMB), is a banker and a very successful fiction author with four bestsellers to his credit. Shreya, a final year student of IIMB, first challenges and then is impressed by Aditya. Her ambition is to write a best seller. She joins Aditya's bank as GT.

Can she meet Aditya? Will she patch up? Would he take her as his protégé? Is she a good writer? Will she write a best seller? What would be the cost?

Characterization, in this book, is good. Shreya is portrayed as a brilliant girl who would do anything to get what she wants including flirting, sex, threats, opportunism, blackmail etc. Aaditya is a big shot author who drools after Shreya. He is also a very successful banker. He loves his wife and son and becomes helpless against Shreya's machinations. But he is honest. Maya is torn between her hate of Aaditya for adultery and her love for a lot of other things. Characters of Sanjay, Diana and Sunaina are play the supporting cast.

Ravi is known for his banking thrillers. He has started to distance himself from 'banking' from his book 'Bankrrupt'. Although he has not been able to severe the banking connection completely in this book, this book confirms Ravi's departure from banking thrillers. Aaditya could have been working in any office instead of a bank and it would have made no difference to the story.

On this book he has used the world of fiction writing and book publishing as the theme and he has made good use of it. Author introduces us to this new world and tricks used by different players in the trade.

The story is good. It sashays between love story, adultery, family drama to suspense. The story slows down in the second part of second half but picks up in the climax and ends on a high note.

Ravi has delivered another best seller. Five of his books have won awards. He proves his skills once again.

A good book. Recommend reading.
