Laut aayi Chaya

 Book Review ✨ लौट आई छाया by Amit Khan •  The story of Chaya and Parimal, of how they met, fell in love and lived happily. But life plays it's trick on their happy family and Chaya unfortunately passes away.  The book might seem like a lovestory with a sad ending. But you're wrong cause this one is a Horror story. I have not read any horror kinda book but have watched many movies. So reading a Hindi horror story was a different feel and I liked the overall experience of reading it.  The book has other small stories too, related to souls, that might make you shiver and scare while reading. The relationship between Chaya and Parimal were cute and the way the author wrote the story was simple yet engaging.  The last story in the book was my favourite one as it gave me goosebumps and I was shocked. At the end of each story the author also gives us small messages which makes us ponder upon it.  If you love reading horror story, then you might like this one.
