Book Review The Whisper Man

The gist of words that describe this Thriller Novel written by Alex North Would be paranormal, mental illness, serial killing, the relationship between a father and son, and, most importantly, the role of a father they argue with their son.

The whisperman waited long in my kindle shelf, reasons even I am not known to them. As the title and the beginning of the plot’s first few chapters were nothing but mundane, the story starts reshaping when you start becoming comfortable with the uncomfortable story. It is too dark, as well.

Right from the start, you believe that the child Jake is somewhat unique, and this thriller will not harm him in any which way. All the characters that the writer has made alive are proper and required except Amanda’s character in the last few chapters, which I felt was unnecessarily written to thicken the plot.

This is a thriller where you do not find one character who becomes your favorite character, which I found quite odd. Though some of the lines and sentences that the author has written are special, it is crucial to love even when we argue, especially when we argue. This gives a special message to the readers who live in this century where argument turns into a fight in an instant where social media and messaging apps always surround us.

The most peculiar thing I liked about this book is how the writer has defined the father's role through the loss of a mother. This is the real bookmark of The Whisperman.

For the paranormal fans, yes, there are many elements of the supernatural stuff that the author has attempted, but they remain unconcluded till the end of the story. They are open-ended.

The book is a one-time read for a lazy Sunday; I would recommend reading via an audio reader with a reading speed of 1.1x as the initial story takes to build.

Overall I would rate it 3.5 from 5.

Thanks.
