Whenever we pick up any novel, it has a romance aspect to it. Somehow, somewhere, there is always a love story. Now there is a huge difference between a romance novel and a book having romance in it. And in this blog post, I'm suggesting you readers some book that may, may not have romance in it but they are not entirely love stories.
Here goes.
1. Inferno by Dan Brown
I have always vouched for this man ( I have also given a deep consideration of building him a shrine). So any book by him will always be Number One on any non-romance list. Inferno is one of the best books that I have read. Clear, neat, resourceful, enlightening, gripping, tangling, exciting, everything about this book screams fan in making. So be sure to read this one.
2. Wuthering Heights.
Yes, it is basically romance outline but its really not. Its more like real life story with practicality thrown into it. The decisions and the thought processes in the book are what normal people would think, like not marrying the poor servant just because he's broody and hot (the two things female love). So, yes, I strongly recommend this one.
3. Carrie by Stephen King.
One of the most scary books I have read in a long time. It makes you think back of not only the times you may have bullied or been a part of bullying someone, but also the times when you stood there and watched. Because Carrie was full of hatred towards everyone who bullied her or watched offering no help. And then she practically burned them. So, yeah, I'd start helping the weak.
4. The Palace of Illusions by Chitra Banerjee Devakurni
This book is for everyone who blame Draupdi. The story is from the POV of Draupadi explaining clearly as to what lead to Mahabharata and how it affected her, I had not read any part of Mahabharata before this but this book alone cleared all my concepts, And I loved it, There was little superstition or magic in it, and more of real life and emotions. It was written in a brilliant manner that anyone could relate with Draupadi.
5. Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn.
I haven't read this book but I have read and heard so much about the sheer brilliance of it. It is siitng on the top of the books that I have to read. So I would suggest everyone to read this too.
