Review
ENDURER A Rape Story by Kapil Raj is a story of Palak who’s world shattered after she was raped. Will she get justice? How will she survive? What happens next?
The book has a beautiful cover! I liked the concept of the book, it’s good. But then there are too many errors in the book which can’t be ignored. The book has a strong message. The narration of the story is good, the plot has twists and turns which makes it interesting.
The writing style of the author is Crisp and Lucid. The language of the story is Simple. I wish the author did more justice with the concept of the book! The story discusses an important topic but then the book lacks in leaving the strong impact on readers. The only good thing about this book is the cover and the title.
The characters that the author made are strong and well developed. Each of them had a vital role to lay. Themes like survival, struggle are used by the author. The pace and flow of the story are smooth. One can relate to the story well.
Overall, It’s a good story with an interesting message. It has a strong message but could have been executed well.

Summary:
“The beam of sunlight crossed the room along with the dust dancing in. It could do nothing but allow the particles to contaminate the ray and make it impure, just like me.”
Life was a fun fed roller coaster: New found love, drugs, cat-fights, patch ups, crushes, night hangouts, and unplanned trips. Like any girl, not in the wildest dream, Palak could imagine that after attending a Rave Party, she will wake up to the horror of finding herself raped.
In traumatic conditions and struggle between sanity and hallucinations, she is compelled by the circumstances to leave her world. Already fighting a war within, her stances takes a toll witnessing horrifying tales of women and girls. Little did she knew that this catastrophe was not enough for one lifetime, and a storm – was just cooling its heels.
Will she be able to carve her path while facing the rapists, her tyrant father, appearances of her passed away mother? Should Palak let her life to be decided by people, society, and taboos? Would justice return her life or revenge lend her peace?
A heart-rending story of a girl, whose beliefs and honor has been battered, stands up to make choices, rediscovering the meaning of life.
