Do you think
that people you meet on Dating apps can be trusted?
Swipe Left by Himanshu Goel is the story of Naina, who after her breakup with
Karan decides to try out a Dating App Mategram on the insistence of her friend.
After multiple left swipes, she finally comes across Ranveer, a chef who
captures her attention and she decides to go out on a date with him. While the
date was as perfect as it could be, there were secrets that Ranveer hadn’t yet
told her.
The short story is
crafted well; however, it lacks in the essence of being a thriller. The premise
of the story was excellent, but its execution was subpar that would make you
feel inadequate after completing it. While the story progresses, one would expect
some sort of thrill to happen, but it was is if the fizz went out of the soda. The
climax was very anticlimactic and almost as if a sudden brake is applied on a fast-moving
car.
The characters
of the story are relatable, and the twists are good. The character of Ranveer could
have had more depth as well.
Overall, a decent
book that scores a 2.88/5 for me.
