Book Review- Not His Obsession

"Beauty has its own scars"

I am absolutely in love with this one line from my first published book series, Not His Obsession Book-1. The time I spent writing this book—the late nights, early mornings, mid-exams—was probably the most beautiful use of my existence, and I’m not even being dramatic. For me, writing is like breathing.

Not His Obsession is not your typical “male lead gets obsessed with female lead” story. It’s a Boy Love tale where Riley, a friend who has been obsessed with Steve for over seven years, finally decides to step into his life when Steve is 16. Now, you might think it’s going to be a love story between Steve and Riley, where Steve looks past Riley’s dark façade and falls for her vulnerable side.

But that’s where Jake Campbell Adulyadej enters. He finds Steve at a place in his life where Steve never thought he could escape from. But Jake does the impossible—he not only rescues Steve, but he also heals him and loves him in ways Jake never thought were possible. He never realized he had so much to give to a stranger until one day, Jake realizes that Steve was never a stranger.

This book is a love story wrapped in dark mystery and thrilling moments, where every character goes through their own trials at least once throughout the journey. Now, I am not going to say that people should read my book because it has an amazing plot, but I will say confidently that it is a unique plot. Of course, there are so many books on obsession trope that have been written, however, until now all the books that I have read on this very have been dark romance. My book contains a toxic amount of obsession to a point that the reader might secretly pray, that they hope of all characters THIS one should never come alive. However, that obsession never converts into love—if anything it repels people from it. And Riley’s obsession with Steve only made him realize that love was anything but that.

I am Yashvi Udernani, a college student from Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India, and I aspire to become a great author one day. I dream of my books being sold and talked about globally. For me, writing is like Stefan Salvatore for Elena Gilbert—it came to me at a time I desperately needed someone, and I instantly fell for it. One day, I also hope to direct my book into a movie, giving my readers—who, by the way, I call “Dumbos” because they’re my readers, so they’ve got to be a little glitchy—a reading as well as a visual representation.

Meet the Author:

I am an introverted walking meme, is what I am. I have a lot to say during situations, humorous, serious or just fun, but I can't, because I am an introvert. And it is not something I am embarrassed about, no, never. In all years of my life, I have come to realize no matter what I cannot change myself to fit in a crowd where I don't belong, because it always ends, and it is always messed up. If you ask me to describe myself in a few words, I'll say, I am too much of a shy person to be a writer, because according to society a writer is supposed to someone wild, filled with thrill and that desire to explore everything and anything, however when I write I know I touch people's heart because if there is one thing in my life I am completely confident is about my writing. So, yes, I may not be this extroverted thrill-seeking author, but I do love quietness of a still room, filled with the ecstatic aroma of coffee and the sound of my typing. I may not be proud of who I am as a whole person, but I know one day I will be. It's not easy to love myself, but it is not impossible. The spotlight of my hopes will always shine on me like the sun over the beautiful vast ocean. And one thing about me. I am a coffee whore.
