The story showcases how can waywardness and unrelenting courageousness sometimes lead towards self infliction or it may even result in experience of the lifetime. This is a story about a bunch of post graduates who believe in living life king size. No challenge is big enough for them, as they go by the motto of - ?risking it all?. Although the style of writing is quite detailed and tends to be introspective at times, there are frequent doses of humor and thrill to capture the reader's attention. Since the story is about the idiosyncrasies of lead protagonists, average age of whom is not more than 30, the author believes it should suit the psyche of young generation; although while conceiving the idea and going about it, he never targeted it to any specific audience. Frankly speaking anyone who feels and live by the motto that- ?It is passion not the intellect that drives the world, ? would find it an interesting read.

The New York Times bestselling author of A Simple Favor brings her “sly, satirical, subversive” (L.S. Hilton, author of Ultima) prose to a pitch-perfect psychological suspense novel about a young couple whose disintegrating marriage and remote new home in rural, upstate New York make for a terrifying descent into the darker side of human nature. When Emma’s husband, Ben, falls in love with a large Victorian mansion for sale in upstate New York, he swears to her the fixer-upper will be worth the risk. With a baby on the way, Emma would like to live in a charming, safe community, after all—and in a space larger than a one-bedroom New York City apartment. On impulse, she agrees to Ben’s plan and they put in an offer on the house. Sure, the mansion has a somewhat creepy backstory and is a bit dilapidated, but Emma and Ben are in this together, aren’t they? When strange things start happening, Emma begins to experience a little buyer’s remorse. What’s the real history of this house? Is its dark history repeating itself? Why does her husband suddenly seem so distant? Is she in danger? Is her baby? Combining the domestic anxiety of Liane Moriarty and the haunting twists and turns of Shirley Jackson, All I Want is an intensely absorbing novel that will change the way you look at your neighbors.
