Introduction:
This English novel The Girl on the
Train is a New York Time Bestseller book and an Amazon Best Book of the Month, January
2015. And that year the book received The Best Thriller of the Year Award.
Review of the Novel:
Usually I like Dark Thrillers. This
means that none of the book’s characters are wash the basil leaves, everyone
has secret or dark past behind it. The book’s has three main characters,
Rachel, Anna and Megan. One of them always has alcohol drowned and one of them
is a liar and another one is a cheater. Who would you believe? Everyone has the
motive behind the incident.
The event is started with Rachel.
After leaving her job everyday she comes to London by train, so that anyone can
not understand. She was an alcoholic also. So everyday when the train stopped at
a red signal, she aimed at a house. Thus, to see everyday she involved itself an
invisible relation to the resident of the house (a couple). She thinks their
names also. But one day when she back, from the train, she sees something
unexpected.
Then the next day she was listened a news
and became involved with the incident. Not only this event, the story goes
ahead, her past life was screwed up with the events. The truth comes out at the
end, it was really shocking for me, I did not realize until the last minute, who
is the real criminal? Because of that I can not trust to any characters on this
novel. However, a few places I have been a bad mood on Rachel, because she had a
bit more time to understand what is happening in the fact.
I liked the author’s writing type.
There was always suspense throughout the book. So the book is little hard to
leave and the story is quite fast, so it did not impatient. People who are fan
of Psychological thriller and tendency toward the dark thriller they can be
read. Young Adults who in the book Dangerous Girls fan and Gillian Flynn’s fan
also, they can read it.
