As they say overdose of everything is harmful . Being devoid of love for a long time has its own perils. Just like when a person on strict diet stops following it and then becomes obese by 2x the speed , similarly someone who hasn't experienced affection in its most raw form is drawn to it and becomes obsessed.

The story revolves around Raghav who has everything one can ask for . He has the talent , skillset, money . The only thing missing is companionship. He feels lonely at times and strongly believes that there is no point having a fat pay check when you don't have anyone to share it with. Then enters Siya , a gorgeous BJMC student and he falls head over heels for her. But what he is considering as love, is more of an infatuation which slowly transforms into obsession.

The story isn't a quintessential romantic tale but showcases different facets of a human life. The readers initially may not find Raghav as a likeable character but when the actual reason for his obnoxious nature is revealed, one can find sympathy brewing for him . The portrayal of unrequited love is quite relatable. There are instances when the story becomes a bit cliched but the psychological aspects of characters are well expressed.

All in all certainly not a typical story that one gets to read on a regular basis .

Publisher: @authorsink
Ratings: 4.7/5

Starting with the book cover it is beautiful and impressive. The plot of the story is interesting, engaging and fantastic. It is a perfect mixture of love, friendship, trust, backstabbing and lots of twists and turns. The author has very well depicted all the emotions. The book is divided into 27 chapters which are readers friendly.

Among those 27 chapters, my favourite ones are chapter 8(falling in love) chapter 16(The proposal) and chapter24(What goes around comes around)

The language used is simple and sober. Characters are well developed and portrayed by the author.

Raghav's character is strongly composed. The flow of the book is well-paced.

Blurb of the book:

✍𝐿𝑜𝑣𝑒𝑑 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝑜𝑏𝑠𝑒𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑣𝑒 𝑑𝑒𝑣𝑜𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛, ℎ𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑑 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝑏𝑎𝑟𝑒𝑙𝑦 𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑡𝑟𝑜𝑙𝑙𝑒𝑑 𝑓𝑢𝑟𝑦...

Book Review :


I'm Sorry My Love By Prashant Kaul

No. Of Pages : 194
Genre : Indian Contemporary Romance

My Rating : 3/5


Starting with the book cover, I really wish it was something else, specially the shade of pink in it is isn't my choice. Next we move on to the length of the book which was apt according to an average reader. I took two hours to finish the book, you might take days. But the story is engaging enough and some of us might relate to it.

The male protagonist is obsessed over the female protagonist and moves mountains just to be with her, lost all control over his common sense. This is some sort of a medical condition only doctors can tell you about, if you know what this is - the over-obsession of something or someone to a dangerous extent, let us know in the comments. The story was engaging but the dual POV and the change of the time setting to the future and then back to the present made it predictable.

The writing style is simple and not as exceptional as expected, but it could be apt for a beginner. The title is apt too.

What I didn't like about the book was its predictability and the cliché and unrealistic romance and stuff in between. Major part of a typical Indian Romance, isn't it?

Won't say much more about the book, didn't match my interests up to my expectations.🥹

This story of the book was so intense and painful that it took me a while to digest it. The story is about the life of Raghav Malhotra. Son of an industrialist " Mr. Viren Malholtra and his even busy ex model mom.

Raghav was used to a rich lifestyle and driving luxury cars. His only companion or someone close to family was his driver who cared for Raghav since his childhood. But Raghav always maintained a distance from one and all.

A college student Siya changed Raghavs life. Siya used to stay in the college hostel and Raghav somehow wanted to make a bond with her. It was love at first sight for Raghav. A guy who stayed away from everyone suddenly wanted to have a meaningful relationship with someone.

After doing and planning lot of drama, he got accquiainted with Siya.

What follows is a rude shock to Raghav and being the rich spoilt brat, Raghav Malhotra was determined to make Siya fall in love with him at any cost.

The author has cleverly penned the character of Raghav. He is both sinister and benevolent. The ever changing thoughts of Raghav baffled me. I felt like I got a peek into the mind of a love deprived human.

The characters who were impacted by Raghav was penned well. I liked Raghavs classmate Ruchika, Akash and Siya's parents. This book was very gripping for me as I couldn't put it down for a while. Thriller genre fans will surely enjoy this one.

Review:
"Love should never be an obsession. I learned this the hard way only after I lost everything in love." - This is written in the prologue and told from our protagonist. And this line totally describes the book, the story of our protagonist perfectly.

Raghav Malhotra, our rich spoiled protagonist, obviously with troubled childhood, lack of affection from parents, only used to love his grandmother, but after loosing her become stone-hearted also have lots of friends but none closer. And he's finding that one person who'll fill his heart. And he also finds one, falls in love but that love becomes obsession and how he reacts and the consequences he faces is the story.

The story is just amazing, captivating tale. All things unfold in Raghav's life is going to hook you till the very end. And the story is not only from Raghav's pov, the author also gives us Siya's pov at the right time. Siya is the lover of the protagonist.

Even having the most emotional, unexpected, betrayal events in the book, you'll still questions at the end, do you really hate Raghav? Or your feelings is the same as Siya's?? Cause the epilogue is just perfect.

Definitely a book I would like to recommend to all who loves romance but not like the conventional one. This is one of the perfect read with perfect ending for me.

"Love is such a pious feeling, and when you are surrounded by true love, you can overcome the most difficult situations. "
🔹There is a very thin line between love and obsession. In love a person only wants other person's happiness but in obsession the person just wants the other person with them in any way. And when this thin line begins to blur the person didn't understand what is right or wrong.
🔹Raghav Malhotra a rich young boy who has every materialistic pleasures in life yet he is lonely. He was doing his graduation in Business Administration from Zenith College.As he has no one who loved him selflessly. When he saw Siya for the first time he fell in love with her.
🔹Siya Shrivastav a beautiful girl of BJMC department in Zenith College. She was in love with his childhood friend Aakash. But not all love stories are happily ever after.
When Raghav got to know about Siya and Aakash he tried in every possible way to get rid of Aakash. He was so much in obsession with Siya that he became a stalker and wanted to own her by his evil plans.

To know more about Raghav's evil and inhuman deeds grab the book and read it soon.

🔹Author portrayed the character of Raghav psychologically true as no one is born evil but the situations made them. Raghav was alone from his childhood and in need of love he fails to acknowledge the difference between right and wrong and commits a unforgettable crime. 🔹
🔸Storyline was different from a normal romance novel.
🔸Narration and language is simple and captivating.
🔸If you are new to reading and wanted to read romance but with different storyline you can read this one.

I am sorry my love is a romantic scary  fiction, i would say written by Prashant kaul. I am not a supporter of the quote " everything is fair in love ", I don't think it is. Not everything is fair. Everything can't be. And in this era, very less people know about real love. Most of us just hover around its different patterns, and take them as love.

The story revolves around Raghav Malhotra, a boy having everything in life but just not a partner. Until one day when he sees Siya, and falls for her. In no matter of time, love for her turns into obsession, and the lover in him turns into a monster.

But what comes after is another level of unseen thrilling situations. For some moments I thought it wasn't love it was just his obsession towards her, he kept on being danger to everyone around, the changes in him, the way of behaviour, the hollowness.

I liked reading this book. The story is engaging. Author has well penned it. A very crisp and thrilling and romantic story .

Talent, Influence and Money - Rahul Malhotra is a whole package. But still there is something missing in his life. A companionship. The need for companions makes him obsessed.

He met Siya and fell in love with her right away. His obsession towards Siya changes his personality and makes him a stalker. He takes all possible measures to own her. His unrequitted love has turned him into a monster who will do anything to attain Siya.

How far will he go? Will Siya fall in love with him or is their relationship damaged permanently?

This book reminded me of Joe from 'You' many a times. Rahul's character and the changes in his attributes are described excellently. The book is fast paced and makes you wanna read what happens next. Loved the writing style of the author.

Pick this Romantic thriller and have an amazing weekend.

Raghav Malhotra is a rich, handsome boy who doesn't even know what a family is all about as his family is not interested in him. Being ignored by his father and mother, he finds solace in temporary friends and relationships. This continued until he saw Siya Srivatsav. But his love started to turn into an obsession that could hurt everyone around him.


I hate the main character so much even after reading from his POV. But, I LOVED the book!!!
The author has illustrated the thought process of the character in such a way that it goes straight into our hearts and breaks them bit by bit until it completely shatters them. This book is obviously written to break our hearts.

What I like about the book

🔸 The story - Wow!!!
🔸 The character development
🔸 Ruchika, Siya, Aakash and Kishore uncle, Siya's grandparents

What I didn't like

Nothing!

Indeed, I didn't like the main character. He is annoying and obsessive. But that makes the book more realistic. His character development is one of the best parts of the book.

I read this one sitting. It has hard to put it down because all I wanted to know was how Raghav was going to atone for his sins than whether he would end up with Siya.

I am completely satisfied with the ending! Reality hurts.

Will I recommend this book?

Yes!!!

(I have a lot of things to say about this book. But I do not want to spoil the story.)

There is a very thin line between love and obsession, where in love u sacrifice your happiness for others; in obsession, you can cross any limit to fulfill your desires.

Raghav Malhotra has everything on his platter, money, fame, and attention. All that is missing was love.

Raghav falls in love with Siya in a college and befriends her.
But when he got to know that she is committed to a guy name Aakash, his maniacal quest to get her, made him a monster.

What will Aakash do?
Would he get succeeded in his plan?

To know it, read this book.
The way the author has designed every plot is damn intriguing and thrilling.

Read it for sure!!

Book : I Am Sorry My Love
Author : Prashant Kaul

There's something about Prashant Kaul books, you just can't keep calm unless you finish his books. Is it because of beautiful writing style, or proper handling of emotions, Or Existing characters or something else, I don't know But I know that it sure is.

We must all suffer one of the two things - The pain of discipline or The pain of regret or disappointment. Love is such a pious feeling, and when you are surrounded by true love, you can overcome the most difficult situations. There is a very thin line between love and obsession. In love a person only wants other person's happiness but in obsession the person just wants the other person with them in any way. And when this thin line begins to blur the person didn't understand what is right or wrong.

Raghav Malhotra is the son of a rich man. He has always had everything that a boy could ever dream for luxurious cars, phones and gadgets with the latest technology, a huge mansion to live in and what not but there was one thing that was missing in his life, i.e “love”. His father was always away on business trips and his mother busy in her social gatherings. Raghav never had the warmth and love of his parents. The only person who loved and cared for him was his grandma and she too passed away when he was quite young. All these events turn Raghav Malhotra into a classic rich spoilt brat with no real friend to open his heart out, he ended up being a chain smoker and alcoholic at a very young age.

Raghav joins college and decides to stay at the hostel as he wants to stay from his family. Then one day while he was sitting in the canteen he notices a girl entering the canteen wearing a very simple yet elegant dress. Siya was with her friends and was laughing at some joke amongst them. That smile took away Raghav’s heart and he instantly had the urge of wanting her with him. Just then he noticed that Siya was holding hands of some guy and the next thing he knew was they were hugging each other.

Raghav, who had always got what he wanted without any struggles became furious as to why was Siya holding hands with some other guy when she was meant to be his. He then started stalking and enquiring about them everywhere. Siya had become his obsession. He was not aware of what he was doing just to get Siya even when she wasn’t in love with him. Let alone love she didn’t even know him properly. His obsession with Siya makes him do things that he is going to regret later but unfortunately what’s done can’t be reversed. When Raghav got to know about Siya and Aakash he tried in every possible way to get rid of Aakash. He was so much in obsession with Siya that he became a stalker and wanted to own her by his evil plans.
To know more about Raghav's evil and inhuman deeds grab the book and read it soon.

His love became obsession and made him do things which became his greatest regret. It’s a very heartwarming story, very well written and the language of the book is very simple and story was quite good and beautifully written. This book is an amazing and refreshing book that teaches us various things and most important the importance of love. It contains for all moods of life.

🌺 The protagonist Raghav Malhotra is filthy rich and is very talented and smart. He has every material thing that one could want. A rich, influential and flamboyant lad who has everything at his footsteps. One who looked at her and that guy deeply falls in love with her.

I AM SORRY MY LOVE
by
Prashant Kaul

Raghav Malhotra has everything a guy could ask for – talent, influence, money.
All that’s missing is companionship.
In walks Siya Srivastav, a gorgeous BJMC student from Varanasi.
One look at her and it’s love at first sight.
But not all love stories are headed towards a ‘happily ever after’.
The problem?
It’s not love, it’s obsession.
Raghav is besotted with her to a point where he can do anything to own her. His maniacal pursuit of unrequited love turns him into a stalker... and then a monster, shaking the very foundation of trust and friendship. How far will he go to quench his thirst of possession?
Will he succeed in his endeavour, or will he succumb to the vagaries of destiny?
Read I am sorry… my love to find out..
___
📍Love should never be an obsession.
I learned this the hard way only after I lost everything in love.
The story is told from two perspectives, Raghav & Siya

This story has a lot of shades to it. To begin with Raghav, a spoilt rich brat, the only heir to a huge property is shown as impulsive, having anger issues & is emotionally void. The reasons for back to his upbringing without the presence of parents, who were always busy in their social lives. Other than a caretaker/ driver who was close to him, there were only his grandparents but they also meet with an accident & expire. Raghav unreasonably blames his caretaker for this loss, his entire life. This loss creates a huge black hole in his psychology as a child which grows as he grows up.

He gets used to the idea of getting whatever he wants & getting away with all the follies he makes.. he lies, manipulates, takes revenge, does physical voilence & what not..to the extent that he doesn't shy away from taking someone's life to accomplish his so-called love.

The story becomes very emotional towards the later half when the person he actually falls in love, Siya..also starts loving him but..still they never get together. By the time he realises his mistakes, matures to being a man..he is left with..nothing.
The language is very descriptive & pretty simple.

This book narrates the story of Raghav Malhotra, a man who has everything thing he needs or could ever want except genuine love. This makes him vary of love, thus, when he falls in love it takes form of a malevolent obsession.

The premise of this book is very interesting and thought provoking. The art of writing from the perspective of 'evil' characters is very complex. It is not an insight into a stalker's mind and the mental processes behind such actions. I did not enjoy the way the characters were introduced without any subtlety or the naïve way brands/adjectives were repeatedly mentioned to showcase Raghav's wealth.

(SPOILER)
Regardless of all that, I was definitely hooked on to the book till the ending. Now moving to my main problem with the book. Raghav is a stalker who contrives a friendship with Siya, in a fit of anger he creates an accident which results in his friend suffering harsh burns and last but not the least he murdered Aakash and injured Siya to the extent of putting her in a coma for two months. For all of this, he faces absolutely no consequences.
He is a person who has an FIR against him for assault and robbery, how was he not questioned regarding an accident that resulted in a car exploding, the death of a young man and grievous injury to a young woman. Did Aakash's parents do nothing? Worst of all when Siya regains her memory she says, "Nothing will ever change my love for you."
"We all commit mistakes or blunders in life", yes absolutely correct but not every human being is a murderer. Don't get me wrong I do believe that every human being deserves a second chance. But this is not how a redemption/punishment arc is written. Raghav should have confessed his crime, apologized to Ruchika, Siya, her grandparents and Aakash's father. He should have been punished for his crime (legally and morally speaking).

The fact that Raghav after all his monstrous acts got what he initially wanted, he got solace as Siya even after knowing the whole truth still loves him, is a mockery of Aakash's life and any karmic justice this world has.
I do not have a problem with the writing, it is the plot that I did not like.

Book - I Am Sorry My Love
Author - Prashant Kaul
Publisher - Authors Ink Publications
Genre - Romance fiction
Pages - 194
A.R.T - 3-4 hours
My rating - ☆☆☆☆/5

🌸🌸
As usual, I'll get my eyes on the cover first. The cover looks as perfect as I could ever imagine a book with such title. I especially love how the font in kept uniformly throughout and not much of a color splash is present. The color gradients are equally balanced which do not feel stingy on the eyes. Overall, the cover deserves a 5 star ☆

🌸🌸
The imterior aesthetics, uhm, would get a 3/5. It's mainly due to the font size; It's too small for readers like me with spectacles, and that made it tough for me to read without just burying my eyes into the pages. I feel this aspect could've been better handled. The paper quality is insanely perfect.

🌸🌸
The story goes somewhere on the lines of how one can be the gardener and uprooter of his own flowers.
Raghav has everything one can ask for - except love. Which he found in Siya - a wanderer in Varanasi.

Raghav has found his flower, but in the quest to make it his, he unwillingly and remorsefully uproots it. He intended to cherish it for lifetime, but as someone ever said - Forever is a myth. In his quest to own the flower, he forgot why he loved it in the first place.

🌸🌸
A balance of anything and everything is nectar. And if not, is poison. When did Raghav's love for Siya turned into obsession, he himself went unaware. And in no time it turned him into an unrequited force in Siya's life.

🌸🌸
In my opinion, Raghav kinda deserved a better ending. But some things are better left incomplete for them to be complete. The pace of the story is perfect; it doesn't rush forward to the climax, neither beats around the bush to bore us.

The character development, oh my god, it's like a fresh breeze from the fog of other badly developed characters i've read recently.

🌸🌸
In conclusion, the author has done a pretty excellent job in serving us what he promises. This has made me more inclined towards reading the other of his books.

If you are getting the vibes of sleeping with a heavy heart today, this book calls for you :)

"An obsession is a way
for damaged people to
damage themselves more."

You need not be together to love and to be loved...

Raghav had everything that he wanted from his childhood but he is denied of love. His parents were always busy in their respective lives. After the death of his grandparents he was left alone completely. He became an alcoholic and chain smoker from a very young age and never had any true friends. He meets Siya, a girl of charm in his college. He instantly gets obsessed by her smile and everything related to her. But he comes to know that she already likes Aakash. Now, what will he do to make Siya his own? Will he able to let her go? Will it be the reason for the monster in his mind to jump out?

✅ The cover page and title suits best to the novel and who tells the sorry to whom is an unpredictable one.
✅ The story is written in a smooth and compelling language. From the first page to the end it kept me hooked. Even if its a romance novel it had elements of mystery.
✅ The main narrator is Raghav and so it was easy to understand the change in his thoughts and character. I really like his character may be because of my love for byronic heros.
✅ A few chapters were narrated by Siya were the readers comes to know about her feelings.
✅ The timeline of the novel kept fluctuating between present and past which added to the suspence and made it more engaging.
✅ Ruchika, is one such friend whom everyone needs. She is genuine and loyal. She helps him to get connected with Siya even after having feelings for him. I got mad at Raghav whenever he took her for granted.
✅ In the beginning I didn't had any interest in Aakash and never expected that he is such an important character.
✅ Perfect ending: It gave moist in my eyes. It was just opposite to my wish. But as a believer in karma I think its the best ending.

Overall, I loved the whole book, from its cover page to the climax. I hope you'll too enjoy it just like I did.

Publisher : Author's ink publication

About the book

Raghav Malhotra has everything a guy could ask for – talent, influence, money. All that’s missing is companionship. In walks Siya Srivastav, a gorgeous BJMC student from Varanasi. One look at her and it’s love at first sight. But not all love stories are headed towards a ‘happily ever after’. The problem? It’s not love, it’s obsession. Raghav is besotted with her to a point where he can do anything to own her. His maniacal pursuit of unrequited love turns him into a stalker... and then a monster, shaking the very foundation of trust and friendship. How far will he go to quench his thirst of possession? Will he succeed in his endeavour, or will he succumb to the vagaries of destiny? Read I am sorry… my love to find out..

My take

Raghav Malhotra is an engineering student, who has all materialistic pleasures in life, and yet, is lonely. He craves for love and companionship. When he sees Siya, it's love at first sight for him. He feels he will walk into the sunset with her. But things are not what they seem to be. Siya is close to a guy, Akash.

Soon Raghav begins to obsess over Siya. The thin line between love and obsession begins to blur. He begins looking at Siya as an object to be possessed. And all hell breaks loose.

What happens next?

The Story is interesting. It is not the typical girl meets boy, boy meets girl and love happens kind of story. There is a touch of reality somewhere. How far can one go to get their means? What is the value of emotions? What is the value of friendships?

The author has beautifully caught the different emotions people go through when faced with adverse situations. The characters are strong and stay true to their nature. The language is easy to read.

The book cover is captivating.

Overall, an intriguing story of love and obsession. I rate it four stars.

📚Book Review 📚
“We must all suffer one of the two things - The pain of discipline or The pain of regret or disappointment”

This book is a perfect example to explain the quote above.
Raghav Malhotra is the son of a filthily rich man. He has always had everything that a boy could ever dream for, luxurious cars, phones and gadgets with the latest technology, a huge mansion to live in and what not but there was 1 thing that was missing in his life, i.e “love”. His father was always away on business trips and his mother busy in her social gatherings. Raghav never had the warmth and love of his parents. The only person who loved and cared for him was his grandma and she too passed away when he was quite young. All these events turn Raghav Malhotra into a classic rich spoilt brat.

Raghav joins college and decides to stay at the hostel as he wants to stay from his family. Then one day while he was sitting in the canteen he notices a girl entering the canteen wearing a very simple yet elegant dress. Siya was with her friends and was laughing at some joke amongst them. That smile took away Raghav’s heart and he instantly had the urge of wanting her with him. Just then he noticed that Siya was holding hands of some guy and the next thing he knew was they were hugging each other. Raghav, who had always got what he wanted without any struggles became furious as to why was Siya holding hands with some other guy when she was meant to be his. He then started stalking and enquiring about them everywhere. Siya had become his obsession. He was not aware of what he was doing just to get Siya even when she wasn’t in love with him. Let alone love she didn’t even know him properly. His obsession with Siya makes him do things that he is going to regret later but unfortunately what’s done can’t be reversed.

It’s a very heartwarming story, very well written and the language of the book is very simple and easy to follow. The only thing I didn’t like about the book was in between it felt like the book is stretching just to lengthen the no. of pages. Other than that the book was amazing.

❤️‍🩹 Love feels great; being in love makes people do extraordinary things; love is the beginning, the end, and the very foundation of every worthy relationship in one’s life and love makes you see things all red and rosy; BUT when a thin line is crossed unknowingly, love is no more love and on the other side of the line is something we call, OBSESSION!

❤️‍🩹 ‘I Am Sorry My Love’ is one such story where love isn’t love anymore for Raghav Malhotra; it is his obsession for Siya Srivastava.

❤️‍🩹 Raghav comes from an affluent family and is good-looking. He has all the luxuries in his life which only many could dream of but what is missing in his life is a loving and caring family which probably no wealth could ever buy. It was only his grandmother who loved him dearly and whom he loved back with all his heart but even she left him at the age of nine after which Raghav, though surrounded by friends and caretakers, always felt lonely.

❤️‍🩹 It was on one fine day when Raghav saw Siya, the girl he’s crazy about and with whom he fell in love with at the first sight, which soon turned into an atrocious obsession!
                                                     
❤️‍🩹 His obsession made him do things he never thought he could ever do; it made Raghav a monster and before he could realise any of it and get into his senses, it was too late!
What did he do? How far did his dangerous obsession get him? Did he repent?                                                  
❤️‍🩹 You need to read this book to find out!

❤️‍🩹 I personally found the story to be quite impressive as it had me hooked until the very end and the author’s writing style was pretty flawless.

❤️‍🩹 The narration was smooth and the plotline was well-executed. There were one or two loopholes in the plot but that could be ignored as the overall story fitted well.
Definitely recommending this one and looking forward to read more work of Prashant Kaul!

Love is one of the best emotions in this beautiful world. Apart from the secretion of some feel good hormones which keep us positive,it also has many other benefits. It helps us during tough times, it appreciates your hard work.It's one of the most powerful emotions a person can have. It higher self-esteem, lower tension and anxiety, brings more trust. In a nutshell Love brings a huge bag of positive effects in our life. But as we all know there's a negative side of every coin. Possession is good, it brings the sense of caring & a little jealousy which on my opinion is not bad but over possession is extremely harmful & I've heard a lot about it from the people who had faced it. Now this time the author has picked a beautiful topic which gives us a proper timeless message. Through his beautiful words he addresses the real point.
Raghav Malhotra(protagonist) who has almost everything in life falls in love with a BJMC student named Siya Shrivastav. And their relationship gradually progresses ,till this point everything looks normal as a typical romance story but then comes the toxicity of Possession aka fear of loss. And completely demolishes the foundation of trust. Excessive jealousy, abuse, paranoia, anger, stalking & all bad influences surrounded him from all sides. The author has beautifully portrayed these events through his writing and succeeded in presenting the real truth before our eyes. Kudos to him. What will happen next, will he be defeated by his hatred or will love guide him on a new path?Well you've to read the book to find out the remnant.
First of all, I would like to thank the author for choosing such a sensitive topic. His writing style is good but sometimes it feels a bit monotonous but the topic itself has the ability to drag your attention. The plot is properly organized & flows smooth. I think it's a great topic to be read by everyone.

Raghav Malhotra possesses all the qualities a man could want: intellect, power, and wealth. The only thing lacking is company. Siya Srivastav, a stunning Varanasi-based BJMC student, enters the room. It was love at first sight once I took one look at her. However, not every love story ends happily ever after. The issue? It's obsession, not love. Raghav is so in love with her that he will stop at nothing to own her. His obsessive search for unrequited love makes him a stalker, then a monster, upending the entire foundation of friendship and trust. How far is he willing to go to satisfy his desire for possession? Will he be successful in his endeavour, or will he be overcome by the whims of fate? Read I apologise...my love to find out...

from me

Engineering student Raghav Malhotra enjoys all of life's materialistic luxuries but still feels alone. He yearns for affection and company. He falls in love with Siya at first sight. He believes he will accompany her into the setting sun. However, things are not exactly as they seem. Siya has a good friend named Akash.

Soon, Raghav becomes fixated on Siya. The thin line separating love and obsession starts to bleed together. He starts to see Siya as something he can possess. Then everything goes to hell.

What comes after that?

It's a fascinating story. Not your average "girl meets boy," "boy meets girl," and "love happens" tale. A little bit of reality is present somewhere. How far will you go to obtain your means? What are the benefits of emotions? What do friendships have to offer?

The various emotions humans experience when faced with challenging circumstances have been expertly captured by the author. The characters are powerful and true to who they are. The writing is simple to read.

The book's cover captures the eye.

An amazing tale about passion and love overall. Four out of five stars.

I'm Sorry My love

Author- Prashant Kaul 

My Rating-⭐⭐⭐⭐

My Review -

Love should never be an obsession…


There is a very thin line between love and obsession. In love a person only wants the other person's happiness but in obsession the person just wants the other person with them anyway. And when this thin line begins to blur the person doesn't understand what is right or wrong…


This book pictures Raghav Malhotra, a rich,lonely and spoiled brat and Siya Srivastav, a beautiful and charming lady. This story shows how Raghav's love at first sight of Siya changes into an obsession unknowingly and becomes an evil stalker whenever he sees Aakash with Siya who is her childhood friend and love of her life. His mind always gives him evil ideas and makes him do unforgettable crimes. Will he be able to make Siya love him with his obsession???


I like how the author has portrayed the character of Raghav how lonely he has been since his childhood because of his busy parents with less love and affection for him than money. Having rich parents he used to get everything but not love and guidance which is essential for every child and made him a spoiled brat. That's the reason why he fails to understand what is good and what is bad and leads him to commit unforgivable crimes.


I definitely like the writing style of the author and the language was easy. But I feel that the story was a little predictable which made me a little bored but I continued because of its captivating narration.


Apart from that it is indeed a very good book , which is slightly different from normal romance or love story books. And I like the climax of this book( it is the same as I thought) , but I like the way the author ended it perfectly…


I recommend this book to all who love reading Romance books. Happy Reading ❤️😊.
