Sinister
"The book is amazing! The thrill of everything happening, the clean murders, the politics, are all very well tied together! I would only be aware of some grammar/vocab mistakes. But other than that great job! "
No one will Ultimately Escape!
"It begins as a simple plan. Mayor Angus MacLeod has outstayed his welcome and the entire population of Zephyr Borough knows it. His corruption includes buying and selling real estate at exorbitant prices, and a dangerous indifference to those he considered his inferiors. Perhaps no understands his cruelty more than local elementary school teacher Elspeth Wallace. An attractive and gifted teacher, she is still forced to work at slave wages that barely allow her to keep the lights on. Obviously Mayor McLeod must go. If not from being voted out of office, then by any means necessary including murder. But who will join Elspeth with the assassination plans? Would it be Finnegan Flynn her fickle fiancĆ© who would do anything to secure Elspethās heart? Maybe Jules Comarty the townās doctor who has access to all sorts of medical poisons to put the Mayor out of misery forever. Elspeth isnāt sure who sheāll use, but she knows she must move quickly, before Mayor McLeod gets wind of her plans and decides the town of Zephyr Borough will be better off with one less teacher. Wow, this was a highly unusual novel. I have never read anything quite like it before. The moment I felt like I had a handle on things and that I knew who was going to be assassinated and why, author Sapto Mitra would introduce a new plot twist, or a surprising new angle that forced me to re-evaluate my previous assumptions. I will say this. Donāt assume the easy answer when reading this twisty thriller, or you to will be blinded by the cunningness and depravity of Mayor McLeod."
Great book
"I have read a few chapters and I am absolutely hooked up. The improvement in every chapter shows the hard work of the author and when you are hardworking, you can achieve anything. The plot is intriguing and the characters are well-finished. Keep up the good workāØā¤ļø. "
I really love this! Would recommend to everyone!
"The author did a great job at starting with a strong plot with depth. Great job - love scandals, politics, and stories that are beyond the usual. With a strong plot also comes strong characters. I will definitely keep reading and recommend to fellow readers. š„°"
Different
"The plot is intriguing and I like the writing style. Initially, it was hard for me to wrap my head around what was going on but I caught on later. I like the bustly style. Almost everyone is involved and that makes it different. The writing style specially. It's amazing. It felt like a movie was unfolding before my eyes. There are a few minor errors, however, which would surely be fixed when proofread. "
A fun read
"I really enjoyed the new approach the author took with its characters. Instead of following the topic of obsession with follow those who rotate around him. It's surprisingly comedic and I did giggle quite a few times. I would recommend giving it a read, it's not cliche and I think it's a breath of fresh air. "
Book Review: The Sinister Ploy of Assassination
"This book offers a compelling narrative with a strong premise and intriguing characters, but it also presents areas for improvement. 1. Backdrop and Flow The story sets a nice backdrop for the main character's intentions, creating an engaging foundation. The flow of words is commendable, though it needs polishing in terms of grammar. The cliffhanger was particularly captivating, but the description of the setting sometimes included contradictions that detracted from the immersion. 2. Word Choice and New Characters The choice of words is well-thought-out, adding depth to the narrative. The introduction of new characters, all united by their hatred for one man, sparks curiosity. Why do they want to kill him? This question drives the readerās intrigue. 3. Editing and Style Spacing issues and grammatical errors are recurring problems throughout the book. Some sentences would benefit from editing or splicing to improve their effectiveness. Despite this, the character descriptions and use of similes are praiseworthy. 4. Emotional Depth The characters feel increasingly real as the story progresses, eliciting sympathy from readers. However, there are capitalization issues that disrupt the reading flow. 5. Pacing and Tone The book offers a smooth and heartwarming read, compelling enough to keep readers engaged. 6. Perspective and Dialogue The perspective of younger characters (like the students) adds a refreshing point of view. The banter between students and the fun dialogues contribute lighthearted moments amidst the tension. 7. Strong character Stella stands out as a strong character, making a significant impact on the narrative. 8. Imagery and Figurative Language The authorās use of imagery and figurative language is impressive, though some sentences require splicing. The cliffhangers are mind-blowing and effectively keep readers hooked. 9. Paragraphing and Formatting Paragraph spacing and formatting need attention. Some sections have paragraphs spaced too far apart, while others appear identical to previous excerpts. The backdrop about India is intelligently crafted, showcasing the authorās skill. 10. Technical Issues For scene breaks, using an appropriate icon (e.g., Inkittās recommended format) instead of the hash symbol (#) would improve readability. Typos like ālickā instead of ālockā also need correction. 11. Character Development and Consistency While the charactersā connections are intriguing, one dead character was shockingly mentioned again, creating confusion. This characterās death should be firmly established to avoid inconsistencies. 12. Engagement with Side Characters The author masterfully presents connections between the characters, yet some feel disconnected and underdeveloped. They come across as strangers, which lessens their impact. 13. Plot Pacing and Transitions The story introduces another death, reinforcing the ominous tone. However, the transitions between events are too fast, which can be jarring for readers. The revenge plot feels stalled as characters die one by one without significant progress. Overall, "The Sinister Ploy of Assassination" is a captivating read with great potential. Its strong characters, intriguing plot twists, and use of language make it worth reading. However, addressing the grammatical errors, pacing, and formatting issues will greatly enhance its quality. I am sure all the loose ends will be answered as we go along with the story. I will definitely continue reading."
A Unique Story Telling!
"Again, I apologize to the author for being 3.5 months late in giving this review šš I was on hiatus (did not plan it before but had to do it anyway, hope you underatand). I read 2.5 chaoters to be honest. I was in the middle of chapter three but I had to reread some sentence several times to understand, and in the end I decide that it's a case of "It's not you, It's Me". I am not an english speaker, and some myateries (like those Agatha Christie's books) will never be on my book list cause I will not understand the plot easily. And sometimes when I read a book, I dont want to think much, rather I just want to enjoy it. This is the case here, sadly. It is all on ME, and not on the author. I just don't think this kind of story telling is perfect match for me. Every chapter has different characters, quite a lot actually that I already forget every name here beside Angus. And so many telling instead of showing, that I already forget half of it (like the characteristics of the character or their problem) cause I was told instead of I felt it myself by immersing myself in the story. I am so sorry for pointing this out, again, it is just me. Some amazing books out there has similar story telling, which are famous books and written by great authors but they are not for me (ex. Golem and Ginny, Sherlock Holmes etc). So really, it is all just me and the book that do not match. As for writing, it is neat and cut in not too long paragraph so it is quite easy to follow and not make our eyes tired by reading long paragraph. For those who genuinely like mystery, I guess you should give this one a try. Love the snark and sarcastic monologue also a fact that everyone hates Angus seem quite funny to me heheh. Good job Sapto!ā”"
So intriguing!
"The author clearly knows how to make the reader fall into the story, and the first few chapters show that. I like the premise of the mystery and the Zephyr Boroughs. One thing i will note is that the sentences tend to run a bit long, so they become a mouthful. I suggest splitting them when you can tell the sentence needs to end. Other than that, great job author! I will definitely read more of this :) "
Fascinating plot, interesting characters, well-written!
"A thoroughly enjoyable and compelling story thus far with near-perfect execution. The characters enthrall you into their stories and I look forward to figuring out what happens next! There may be a few details such as word choice, grammar and punctuation that could be revised. Overall, I would highly recommend this story to anyone looking for an engaging thriller book."
The sinister ploy of assasination
" This book is an absolute gem for those looking for a light and entertaining read. Initially, I found the plot a bit hard to follow, but as I delved deeper, everything started to make sense. The humor is top-notch, and there were moments I found myself laughing out loud. The characters are quirky and endearing, making it a joy to read. The story's twists and turns kept me engaged, and the witty dialogue was a delightful bonus. It's perfect for unwinding after a long day. If you want something amusing and not too heavy, this book is a great choice. Highly recommend for a fun and relaxing read!"
Promising Prospects
"Great read. The author showcases impressive linguistic prowess, channeling a tranquil atmosphere reminiscent of classic gangster films. While the plot intrigues with its layered character dynamics, occasional narrative complexities hinder seamless readability. Nonetheless, the author's evident talent suggests a promising future with enhanced storytelling finesse."
A calm and soothing story
"I was blown away by the authorās masterful use of English language- it's amazing for a 13-year-old! The story has a calm feel, like old gangster movies. The plot is good and soothing as every character has something going on š, but sometimes the paragraphs are hard to follow, which I believe is due to some unclear sentences and narrations, resulting in me getting lost for some seconds. Despite this, I think the author is very talented and has a lot of potential. With a bit of work on improving the storyās flow, this book will be even better!š"
It's a ploy...
"While reading this story it is clear that the author is really dedicated to it! She clearly wants to write a story filled with scandal and giving a focus to the characters. My notes to the author would be to use an outline when plotting/planning the story. It is a great tool to get ideas across! I think this would be especially helpful because many of the chapters feel like a new start to the story, which made it hard to follow the overall plot. Within the start of the story the author introduces so many characters it's a bit hard to keep track. The narrative is so driven on those many characters that we end up knowing very little about MacLeod or the evils that he has done. The author should add more bases to why the townspeople that are in on the ploy, don't like McLeod. It still seems a bit vague. Maintaining the momentum of the story really is important when writing suspense. This is the vehicle that carries the audience so that they want more. Around chapter 19, the momentum begins to get lost so quickly after it began to pick up. Sharing details are important, however don't feel as though you have to share too much about characters if it doesn't tie into the plot. The author does seem passionate about this story! I hope she continues to write and improve! :)"
