Djinn Patrol on the Purple Line by @deepa.anappara is one of the best works of fiction I have read in ages. I went to buy The Nickel Boys, but the stock was out and the shop manager suggested me this one instead. I am thankful to him.A wonderful read. An outstanding debut! Jai, Pari and Faiz are still with me. . . #djinnpatrolonthepurpleline #deepaanappara #bookreview #debutnovel #thenickelboys #penguinbooks #bookstagram #booklover https://www.instagram.com/p/CBAShK8lvpP/?igshid=7bmrwflp1oyj

Längs den lila linjen av Deepa Anappara är en berättelse baserad på verkligheten och författarens debutroman. Det är alltid intressant att läsa böcker som utspelar sig i länder och kulturer som ligger väldigt långt ifrån hur vi har det, men det här blev en riktigt annorlunda läsupplevelse. Berättelsen om 9-åriga Jai och hans vänner i ett fattigt område i Indien är välskriven och engagerande och berättar om en verklighet med stora sociala skillnader och där barnen redan från början lär sig att klara sig själva.

📖 BOOK REVIEW 📖⁣ ⁣ Hello everyone, happy Wednesday to you all! Today I’m sharing my review of Djinn Patrol on the Purple Line which I was lucky enough to read with the lovely @tarheelreader ⁣ ⁣ I had a good feeling about this novel just reading the synopsis alone and I’m so glad it lived up to my expectations! This is a story full of mystery and intrigue and told from the point of view of Jai, a nine year old boy living in a poorer area of a bustling city in India. When children start to go missing in mysterious circumstances, Jai teams up with his friends Pari and Faiz to try and solve the crimes, encouraged by the shows he has been watching on TV and desperate to be a brilliant detective.⁣ ⁣ I enjoyed quite a few things about this story. Firstly, the wonderful characters we met, especially Jai and Pari (who I had an especially soft spot for as she very much reminded me of Harry Potter’s Hermione!). Secondly, the setting of the tale was so beautifully detailed that I could almost smell the food being cooked, see the smog in the air and picture the neighbour’s buffalo sat out in the street. ⁣ ⁣ I was especially affected by the author’s afterword where she explained about the number of Indian children who go missing every day and that this story draws on actual incidents that have happened. There was also some real moments of tension between the Hindu and Muslim communities which added to the sense of fear and confusion experienced by the community and then in turn, led to some saddening events. ⁣ ⁣ Deepa Anappara has written a really fascinating and visceral look into modern India and the problems it experiences, particularly with poverty, corruption, religion and class. I very much enjoyed the reading experience and would definitely read something else by this author. ⁣ ⁣ Thank you so much to Jenni for another great buddy read!⁣ ⁣ Four stars 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 ⁣ ⁣ #bookstagram #booklover #bookstagrammer #bookworm #womensprizeforfiction #womensprizelonglist2020 #djinnpatrolonthepurpleline #deepaanappara #bookreview https://www.instagram.com/p/CDg-WmcAWDP/?igshid=1cv7im24ievr3
