2/5🌟 😞 I don't usually rate books but this one was quite disappointing. The plot was so anti-climatic, I waited till the end for something exciting to happen. It went from crime thriller to romance (and not even interesting). Just a regular romance story. With hardly anything tragic. Crime thriller part just ended like how a real life case would end and the other romance story was also quite interesting. Got bored in the middle of the book but stretched to get to the end. I wouldn't recommend if you're looking for a thriller. The blurb promises a thrilling story but to end with nothing. One of the main characters introduced in the beginning just disappears later with no sign of existence.  However, here's a bit of a look in the book. In "Complications" by Danielle Steel, readers are taken on an emotional journey through the intricacies of life, love, and the unexpected challenges that shape our existence.  The novel introduces readers to a tapestry of charac

How people talk after Lockdown Lockdown effects Missed a good sunset🌅 Apparently I had two story books by same author as a kid. But she wrote them both using different pen names so I didn't know.  On other note, people now after more than a year of pandemic really want to speak a lot. Irrespective of extrovert or introvert. Just let out everything. To the point where other person is just unable to finish their sentences. I'm the other person & I'm not liking it because my conversational skills have already dipped because of social distancing. There are people who did talk normally & let everyone speak before this pandemic with all due manners are now just talking without pausing. Or am I seeing this all wrong? Whatever it'd be, I got to up my skills back to at least where they were.  Ps.: I'll write about the book in picture few days later. What I came to know on Google is that this was the author's most famous series while I had picked it up randomly a
