Let’s start with the prelude, the book indeed has something about it which bind you from the beginning itself.
I truly loved the conversation between the authors and their stories.
'The Other Side' is a collection of thirteen tales of the paranormal, a world that our eyes refuse to see, our ears deny hearing and our senses ignore the feel of. This is a book for someone who is brave enough to take up this invitation to journey through uncharted waters along with the authors, who were inspired by some bizarre experiences to pen down this work where the lines of reality have been blurred by the footsteps of imagination.
Starting from the story number one, a fateful night, you surely going to love the way author narrate the story and describe the surroundings, the stories vary from a weekend celebration of a youngster gone wrong to a psychopath who kills women to quench his desperation. In some stories you're about to have those sudden thrilling moments which is able to cause you to freak out if you’re the sort of one that gets afraid once the alarming witch comes alive in Horror movies.
The two stories I’d specially mention: Mother’s love and Dream girl. Both have amazing story line and narrating style.
Some  stories even remind me of some bolly wood flicks.
Overall this book is a decent treat for all book lovers seeking for unique story line with awesome narration

Rating: 3.5 out of 5.
