REVIEW – Have you ever given a thought to those who spend part of their lives in prison? Like why do they end up there, what do they do in the prison, and how do they deal with the ordeal? I know you have never, no one ever does as we all believe that prison is the right place for any criminal.
Scrabble Babble Rabble is a story that gives you glimpses of a prison. The story takes you to a prison in the UK where 4 prison inmates, Kevin, Liam, Denis and Terry come together by a sheer chance to play a game of Scrabble during their association time. They played the game just like anyone play scrabble but the twist in their game was that they had to narrate a story using word present on the scrabble board. What started as a game between four complete strangers ended up building a strong camaraderie. Through their stories they share their life journey, what they were outside the prison and how did they end up there.
With the top-notch narration, the author has narrated a wonderful tale. Using his personal experience as a police officer, the author surprises his readers by giving minute details of the prison which in return helps to understand the story better.
The cover and title, both are catchy and give a basic notion of the story.
There is no doubt that the story is full of emotions and the characters seem real and natural but there were certain scenes that I find over-explained and if they weren’t there in the first place this book could have become more engaging for me.
