Book Review: Mary Poser - Butterflies and White Lies as Bollywood Comes to Nashville
Title: Mary Poser - Butterflies and White Lies as Bollywood Comes to Nashville
Author: Angel A
Genre: Fiction, Romance
Publisher: Angel's Leap
Rating: 4/5
The just released Mary Poser by Angel A, is a
comfy, warm romance between a Nashville girl and an Indian film director. The
first book by the author, Angel A doesn’t fail to impress us with
her wordy and storytelling skills.
The story is about Mary Poser, the good Nashville bred
daughter of the Poser household. Being the daughter of a Baptist pastor, she, along with her siblings, are brought up with strict Christian values (although
not everyone conforms). A country music lover, Mary works towards helping the
newly disabled people with housing services and makes sure they receive all amenities
they deserve. It is when she attends the Nashville Film Festival with her
besties, Alice and Chloe, that she bumps into the handsome Simha Das, an Indian
filmmaker and they are instantly drawn towards each other. His charming and
polite ways fascinate Mary and they spend some beautiful time together. After
he leaves, Mary has a fatal accident. She is confused as her near death experience
forces her to contemplate their relationship/friendship. Mary goes into a radio
silence after a wonderful night with him on his return and Simha is left
struggling for answers.
Mary Poser is a good love story between two people who are
worlds apart. But their differences only bring them closer. The book is very
well written, with extravagant details about the Christian way of life, which
could have been condensed bit, in my opinion. The narrative is smooth and the
characters well defined. The background detailing on Mary and Simha are
adequately done. The book moves at a good pace with moments of helplessness,
togetherness and fear thrown along in a beautiful romance which completes the
picture.
I enjoyed reading the book, the romance and the ifs and buts
that come with it. As mentioned earlier, it is well written and the characters
remain with you long after you’ve finished the book. Especially Simha’s. One
can hear his deep throated voice and feel his beautiful body through the words. That’s
the magic that the author weaves, leaving us wanting for more.
The book is also being made into a movie. Yeah, that's right! Teasers of the same would soon be uploaded on the official website here.

Last word. Mary Poser is stimulating, exciting and gives you
the warm fuzzies in the end. A satisfying feeling indeed! A good choice for
romance lovers, go for it!
