When I picked up Shushindren's "The Heart to Seek Part I," I wasn't expecting a typical read. This book is an invitation—an intimate, honest glimpse into the soul-searching journey of Creerloshin. It’s messy, it’s beautiful, and it resonates with anyone who's ever wondered, "Is true love even real anymore?"
This isn't just fiction; it feels like the author poured his own life and lessons onto the page. Creerloshin's quest to find meaningful love and kindness, especially in a world that seems determined to crush both, is what makes him such a wonderful character. He meets 24 women along the way, and these aren't just dates, they are crucial, sometimes painful, lessons that force him to grow and look deeper into himself. What truly struck me was
Creerloshin's sheer willpower. We all know that feeling of wanting to just give up when heartbreak hits, but he just keeps dusting himself off and moving forward. It’s a genuine bravado ,a quiet strength that makes this book a powerful manual for navigating life's disappointments without losing hope. For any young adult (or frankly, anyone feeling a little jaded), that never-give-up spirit is the gold here.
Shushindren's writing style is a gift. It's poetic and thoughtful, wrapping you so completely in Creerloshin’s mind that you feel every struggle and small victory.
If you prefer a book full of snappy, back-and-forth dialogue, this one breaks the mold. It's more of an internal, reflective journey. You’ll be in your own head with Creerloshin for the entire ride, and honestly? It’s a journey worth taking.
I finished this book feeling inspired and reminded that the search for love is ultimately a journey of self-discovery.
In The Heart to Seek Part I, we follow Creerloshin on an emotional journey of love, self-discovery, and the quest for kindness. 💖 Creerloshin’s story is one of the most relatable tales of searching for true connection—one that’s filled with ups, downs, and self-reflection. His encounters with 24 women along the way aren’t just romantic; they’re opportunities for him to learn, grow, and ultimately understand what it means to love selflessly. ❤️
The narrative invites you to question the very meaning of true love in a world that often feels devoid of compassion. Creerloshin’s transformation from a young dreamer to a self-aware individual who believes in kindness is inspiring. Will he find the soulmate he’s longing for, or will the illusions of love mislead him? 🌌
Shushindren’s storytelling is gentle yet profound, and the emotional depth of the journey makes this book hard to put down. Creerloshin’s story is a beautiful reminder of love’s true value—perfect for anyone who’s ever been in search of something deeper. 💫
A Tender Exploration of Longing: "Sushindren's 'The Heart to Seek (Part 1)' is a beautifully written exploration of the human heart's deepest longings. Creerloshin's journey is both relatable and poignant, drawing the reader into his world of love, loss, and self-discovery. A truly touching read.
Firstly, I would like to thank the author for giving me this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review. This is a book which is ‘like a memoir’ I guess but not exactly as its also marketed as somewhat fictional including a fictional country where the plot is set in called Dattebayo.
I gave this book 2.5|5 stars but for the functionality of GRs, I put 3|5 and I’ll give a comprehensive review as to why.
‘The Heart to Seek I’ follows a narrator known as Creerloshin from his teenage years through adulthood as he navigates his love life. With a hopeful and open heart as well as incredible luck, I would say to meet quite a number of impactful women, we go through his raw emotions, ups and downs as he falls in love, out of love, gets heart broken but never gives up. His story is with the message to never give up.
However, the book fell a little short for me and I’ll expand as to why once I talk about what I liked.
POSITIVES 1. RAW EMOTIONS: the narrator showed genuineness and wasn’t afraid to show his emotions to us as the readers, taking time to constantly reiterate his feelings. I felt the most for him after his breakup with Angel. It was so gut wrenching to see what he went through and the author showed it beautifully.
2. FAST PACED: this wasn’t a slow read where you felt like nothing was going on. Its a book thats constantly on its feet and moving which I appreciated.
NEGATIVES 1. WORLD BUILDING: This book was set in a fictional country called ‘Dattebayo’ and even has a map but besides random name drops of the capital Anbu and a couple other places on the map like Pyar, Rak, Cinta etc, the fictional country was extremely underdeveloped and hence became irrelevant. We didn’t get to learn about the culture, activities, how it looks, what they eat, how they dress, nothing. No effort whatsoever was put into the world building which made creating a fictional country irrelevant. Instead, it had so many real world elements like you mentioned English football like Liverpool, Ronaldo, Naruto, an extensive array of countries (Creerloshin studies in Australia, works in Singapore, goes to Korea amongst so many other countries), the lion king, Frozen. So i felt that all the real world references defeated the purpose of the underdeveloped fictional world and the story would have made more sense if it was set in either the USA or India instead. The fictional country was also placed in Asia where it was narrated that Asians have conservative values and it was seen in Angel’s family’s reaction to the affair. I felt at points like that, we should have better gotten the culture of the fictional country and their beliefs instead of ‘Asian culture is conservative’…again, real world interference
2. WRITING STYLE: I didn’t like the writing style. This kind of prose with zero dialogue, like diary entry style was just sooooo very hard for me to get into and it was also so rushed. Initially, the writing style just made it seem like Creerloshin was jumping from one girl to the next in his head but I think as for the prose, its just a personal preference which I frankly didn’t prefer because I felt at a point that every few pages, I was reading about a new girl without resolution to the prior one.
3. NARRATOR: I find the narrator to be unreliable. This is mostly due to the lack of dialogue forcing me to see EVERYTHING from his eyes and quite frankly, some of what he was saying, when you looked into it seemed like unnecessary criticism. He always seemed to be criticizing the women when he himself made quite questionable choices and because I wasn’t able to get the pov from the women, I couldn’t tell if some of his judgment was based on emotion or logic and I couldn’t really assume either.
4. QUESTIONABLE ACTIONS/REASONINGS: Creerloshin did some questionable things which made me raise an eyebrow and realise he wasn’t as innocent as his emotions attempted to portray. The following will be spoilers so thread carefully.
Firstly, Creerloshin emotionally cheats on Shallet with Angel. While in a relationship with Shallet, Creerloshin starts chatting with Angel online with whom he forms a deep connection with ALL WHILE IN A RELATIONSHIP WITH ANOTHER WOMAN. Before establishing new and deeper connections, Creerloshin, why don’t you end your relationship with your current girlfriend but no. He waits until he’s basically in love with Angel to break up with Shallet and I simply didn’t respect that.
Secondly, when Angel breaks up with Creerloshin, he didn’t take time out to grieve privately, instead, he called up his ex Shallet whom he had recently reconnected with to comfort him. That annoyed me so much because the whole book, he seemed to be jumping from woman to woman and now that the love of his life breaks his heart, he’s quick to cry on the shoulder of his ex?
Thirdly, Creerloshin invades the privacy of Angel by sharing the email she wrote to him breaking up with him and being vulnerable with his SISTER. That was just a complete breech of trust for me and Creerloshin fell in my eyes at this point.
Fourthly, Creerloshin claims to be madly in love with Angel but when she told him he needs to tell his family first, he completely refused. What? He was trembling at the thought of telling his father. With the level and depth of emotion he showed that he felt for her, including the fact they were together for four years, it completely baffled me that he wasn’t ready to take the proper step forward to move forward in their relationship. Eventually, he tells his mom and sister yes but his reluctance was the classic literary device example of ‘telling not showing’. The most mind boggling part in this was that Creerloshin was going to own a home with Angel all while his family (and hers) didn’t know about them. It was unrealistic.
Fifthly, he was always criticising the women. I will site some examples:
✨“when I realised that she was into someone else. I felt troubled. Her heart was with another man, but she allowed me to have feelings for her and we interacted as though we were romantically involved. Perhaps she enjoyed being the centre of attention? It dawned on me that being with her would only cause more pain, with increasing uncertainty about our relationship.”✨ -Here, I commented in my notes that, ‘you can’t assume this and I can’t take it at face value without her pov because she may have just assumed that you were her friend and it was platonic. You stated she rejected you and felt like you were forcing her to be in a relationship with you so you can’t hold her accountable for leading you on when she made it very clear and here, you’re just being harsh and all round presumptuous.’
✨”Kistal, though a fine woman, struggled to identify those who genuinely showed her attention and care. Genuine appreciation was often overlooked as people failed to recognise the value of their possessions.”✨ — Bashing of Kistal because she liked someone else instead of him. This is why I claim his pov is unreliable.
✨ “I remained silent as I acknowledged that I could have been more understanding, instead of being consumed by my own desires and thoughts.”✨— Here, I commented; finally, some character development because this seemed like the only time he was self-aware that he was at fault. Usually, he blames the other party.
✨ “She hesitated to confide in me, fearing my judgement on her incompetency.”✨ One of the only few insights into the female POV about the narrator.
✨ “She knew she was heartless and unfair to me,” — Another example of him blaming the women. Here, he blames Angel after she ends things because of her family but he played a role in this in that, he sends flowers to her family at a very, very, VERY, bad moment when she had already told him not to.
All in all, I end my review with the thoughts that its a heartfelt read that has some flaws but had very captivating moments.

The Heart to Seek: Part I is an unfiltered, emotionally saturated memoir chronicling a young man's arduous, at times painful, yet profoundly human journey in pursuit of love, identity and self-worth. What makes this book impactful is not its literary polish — which is lacking — but its raw honesty, emotional vulnerability and authentic voice.
The narrative begins with the protagonist’s adolescence in the fictional nation of Dattebayo, where his awkward yet deeply felt crushes unfold with disarming sincerity. As the book progresses, it becomes a flow of formative moments: fleeting romantic encounters, miscommunications, unrequited love and quiet heartbreaks. The structure is more stream-of-consciousness than strictly narrative, giving it the feel of a personal diary rather than a traditional novel.
At its core, this is a book about yearning — not just for romantic love, but for connection, purpose and meaning. The protagonist’s efforts to connect with various women are punctuated by deep introspection, internal conflict and philosophical musings about fate and self-discovery. These themes become even more poignant as the story shifts from his youth in Dattebayo to his time studying and working abroad, where cultural dissonance and isolation challenge his understanding of identity and companionship.
Stylistically, the book struggles with coherence and clarity. The language is riddled with typographical and grammatical errors, often making it difficult to follow. However, this technical weakness paradoxically enhances the book's sense of authenticity — it feels less like something crafted for readers and more like a soul baring itself, unfiltered.
What redeems The Heart to Seek most is its emotional courage. It does not shy away from embarrassing missteps, quiet devastations or naïve longings. It is a story many might relate to but are too guarded to tell — especially men, for whom emotional vulnerability is often discouraged.
This is not a perfect book, but it is a genuine one. For readers seeking refined prose or tight plot structures, this may not satisfy. But for those who value emotional honesty, this book offers a deep, sincere and stirring account of one person’s pursuit of love and self-understanding in a noisy, uncertain world.
Highlights: 💫 Real, emotional and relatable 🧠 Deep thoughts on love & self-worth 👶 Coming-of-age honesty
Heads up: 📝 Some grammar issues 🔁 A bit repetitive 📚 Not a polished novel
Overall: This is a flawed, but heartfelt and resonant work. Not for everyone, but invaluable for those who see beauty in emotional transparency.
Still, it is a brave, touching and unforgettable read. 💖
The Heart to Seek (Part 1) by Sushindren is a book that explores into the raw and tender parts of the heart, especially in those moments of longing and searching. Reading Creerloshin’s journey is like reading a part of oneself—a deep, universal desire to understand love, kindness and the connections we share.
What I loved most is how unfiltered Creerloshin’s experiences feel. There’s something striking about his vulnerability, which makes each chapter feel like you're living his journey with him. His stories with Jaciy, Weiny and Amanque touched me on so many levels, especially because it isn’t just about romance; it’s about that innocent, sometimes clumsy, yet beautifully sincere way he learns to trust, open up, and be himself. I felt for him as he struggled with his own shyness, not knowing how to start conversations or express his feelings—something so many of us can relate to. That authenticity in his story is what made the book hit home for me.
The little details Creerloshin clings to—like collecting straws to remember Jaciy—gave me a sense of nostalgia, a reminder of the simple, almost magical gestures we hold onto when we experience love for the first time. The way he builds connections, especially with Amanque, who he meets through an accidental email mix-up, made me appreciate how fate often has its own mysterious, roundabout way of bringing people together. It reminds us that love sometimes sneaks up on us in unexpected ways.
Another aspect that stands out is Creerloshin’s belief in true love, even when he faces rejection or heartbreak. His mother's advice about how love can’t be forced felt like a beautiful truth. Her words and Creerloshin’s quiet resilience made me think about the ways we hold onto hope, even when it’s tough. It’s his persistence, his unshakable faith, that makes his journey so inspiring and relatable.

"The Heart to Seek" invites readers into a world where emotions flow like ink on parchment. Jayasingham's writing style is poetic and thoughtful, creating an intimate space where the narrator reflects on the loves that have shaped their life.
1. Poetic Prose: The first thing that struck me about this story is the very poetic and thoughtful writing style. It felt like the narrator was wistfully sitting down to have a chat about how the loves in their life have unfolded so far. Each sentence is carefully crafted, like a delicate brushstroke on a canvas.
2. Intimate Reflections: The book reads like a personal diary, capturing moments of vulnerability, longing, and introspection. The narrator shares their innermost thoughts, allowing readers to glimpse the raw emotions that swirl within their heart.
3. Absence of Dialogues: there are zero dialogues in the book. This absence creates a unique reading experience—one that relies solely on the narrator's inner monologue. While this approach can be challenging, it also draws readers into the narrator's world, making it feel like an intimate conversation.
4. Character Dynamics: One recurring theme is the main character's tendency to seek a potential love interest in every female they interact with. It seemed as though he was constantly seeking companionship, which felt repetitive and somewhat detracted from the depth of the narrative.
Reason for 2-Star Rating: The lack of dialogues and the repetitive focus on romantic interests made the reading experience less engaging for me. While the poetic language was beautiful, I missed the dynamic interactions that dialogues can bring to a story. The main reason was my personal preference. It plays a significant role in how a book resonates with a reader. The unqiue style of this book did not align with my reading tastes.
In summary, "The Heart to Seek" is a book that invites readers to slow down, savor each word, and explore the intricacies of the human heart. It may not follow conventional storytelling norms, but its poetic language and intimate reflections make it a unique and thought-provoking read
The Heart to Seek is a thought-provoking novel that delves deep into the journey of love, self-discovery, and the search for true connection. Through the eyes of Creerloshin, the protagonist, the reader is taken on an emotional expedition, spanning his youth to a stage of self-awareness, as he encounters 24 women in his quest to comprehend the essence of true love.
The novel’s premise is intriguing—Creerloshin, a man gifted (or perhaps burdened) with fate’s peculiar plan, must navigate through relationships that test his belief in love and kindness. The story effectively portrays his inner turmoil as he confronts the harsh realities of a world often devoid of compassion. Shushindren’s writing style invites readers to reflect on the authenticity of love and the importance of faith in benevolence.
One of the book’s strengths is its exploration of Creerloshin’s emotional depth. As he oscillates between hope and despair, the novel poses significant philosophical questions: Is love an illusion? Can one find a soulmate in a world filled with deception? These themes resonate with anyone who has ever questioned the nature of relationships and human connections.
However, the novel might feel abstract at times, as the protagonist’s internal struggles sometimes overshadow plot progression. Readers who prefer a structured storyline with clear resolutions may find the narrative wandering into deep contemplation. That being said, for those who appreciate philosophical fiction and introspective storytelling, The Heart to Seek offers a rewarding experience.
In conclusion, The Heart to Seek is a novel that challenges readers to think about love beyond its surface level. Creerloshin’s quest is not just about finding a soulmate but about understanding the meaning of love itself. It is a book that will appeal to those who enjoy reflective and soulful narratives.
Not gonna lie, I wasn't expecting much from the book because it was not a typical romance and it was inclined more towards nonfiction and memoir (which are not my kinds of genres much), but it turned out to be pretty good, especially after I got to know that it was the author's true story. I found myself more connected to the story after that. It was a totally unique read because I have never read about a man gifted with 24 fine women to contemplate true love.
The Heart to Seek is the journey of the author's life, which is heartbreaking, inspiring, relatable, and thought-provoking. It's a journey of self-discovery and true love.

●There are many thoughts and lessons present in the book that humans need to know and understand.
The only reason I gave this book 4.3⭐ is because I'm used to reading dialogue in books, and without dialogue, it feels weird to me. Otherwise, the book is great, and it ends on a cliffhanger. So, if you like my review and find yourself in a position to know more about it, then go and read it.

I read A Heart To Seek by Shushindren and I must say that I had mixed feelings about it. On the positive side, the writing style was quite good and I found the author's use of language to be evocative and engaging. The descriptions were vivid and the pacing was well-balanced, making for a smooth and enjoyable reading experience.
However, I must admit that the basic plot of the story left me feeling uneasy. Without giving away any spoilers, I found the actions and motivations of certain characters to be questionable and at times, downright disturbing. While I understand that the author was trying to create a sense of tension and conflict, I felt that the plot crossed a line at times and left me feeling uncomfortable.
Additionally, I found some of the characters to be a little one-dimensional and at times, their actions and dialogue felt forced and desperate. While I understand that all characters have flaws and weaknesses, I felt that some of the characters in this book were overly exaggerated and lacked depth.
Finally, I felt that the author refused to see the other point of view in certain situations. While I understand that every author has their own perspective and vision for their story, I felt that the author's refusal to consider alternative viewpoints limited the potential for growth and development within the story.
Overall, I give A Heart To Seek by Shushindren two stars. While the writing style was good, the basic plot and some of the characters left me feeling uneasy and disappointed. I would recommend this book to readers who enjoy dark and twisted stories, but caution that it may not be suitable for all audiences.

Creerloshin’s story felt like reading someone’s soul slowly learning how to love again 💭 The book takes you through his journey from a curious youth to a man searching for meaning, love, and kindness.

His encounters with the women who came across his life are one of the major highlights of this book and it is not just mere love stories but emotional lessons. Some bring warmth, some bring ache, and some leave a quiet echo that lingers long after the page is turned 💔 (I could feel how each person shaped him, how every goodbye carried a small piece of growth).
What makes this book so beautiful is how real it feels. You can sense that the author poured his own truth into Creerloshin’s voice.

Themes of love and self-discovery: Creerloshin’s search for love isn’t just about finding someone; it’s about understanding himself.

✨ I received this book as an ARC for my honest review✨
Rate: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
This book took a unique approach by omitting all dialogue, an intended choice by the author to preserve the privacy of conversations. I, unfortunately, was not a fan of this as it felt less engaging.
However, despite the lack of dialogue, the book isn't short on feelings. It dives deep into the highs and lows of love and relationships, especially when Ceerloshin hits those rough patches. From the highs of falling head over heels to the gut-wrenching lows of heartbreak, it covers it all.
With that being said, though, I wish that Ceerloshin did not overanalyze every relationship and view every woman primarily as a potential partner. There's a notable absence of acknowledgment of the importance of platonic love and friendship, which I would have liked to see addressed more prominently.
If you're into exploring matters of the heart, this book is worth checking out. Just be mindful of certain perspectives toward relationships that might not match well with you as they did not match for me.
Plot - The Heart to Seek, Part 1 follows Creerloshin’s journey to find true love. His search begins at 13, when he first feels drawn to a classmate. As he grows, he encounters many women, each bringing new experiences and emotions but ultimately leaving him confused. The hope of meeting his soulmate never fades, lingering in his mind.
In 2017, Creerloshin meets Angel through social media. They connect deeply, sharing everything from job updates to travel stories. Angel becomes an important figure in his life, and by December 2018, they decide to meet in person. But the question remains: will Creerloshin finally find true love with Angel? Can he find the solace he seeks?
Review: The story speaks to the universal desire for a deep, comforting connection. Seeking true love isn’t easy; we often feel close to someone only to feel distant the next moment. The author shares relatable moments from school to college, exploring the challenges of modern love. While the story is engaging and honest, it occasionally lacks momentum. A crisper ending could have given it more impact.
Creerloshin, a young man, is the most beautiful soul who sets out on a trip from a young man to a self-conscious man in order to commiserate genuine love and kindness. The novel does a fantastic job of depicting the sensitive moments that Creerloshin and his companion, Angel, have, creating vivid settings that envelop readers in the lives of the characters. In addition to telling us the story and revealing to us his deep, personal thoughts and emotions, Creerloshin also exposes us to a number of fascinating and captivating women.
24 exquisite women were given the opportunity to reflect on the possibility of true love in this world as a present to Creerloshin's life. The incredible journey he took led him to a lost soul who became stuck in life. Regretfully, before to meeting Angel, he had a string of failed relationships. We see their relationship develop, share in their happiness, and witness the challenges they encounter.
The Heart to Seek Part 1 by Shushindren feels like stepping into a deeply intimate journey where love, longing, and the subtle layers of the human heart unfold. The narrative draws you into its embrace, with characters that feel so raw, they almost become reflections of our own desires and fears. Shushindren’s writing is both delicate and piercing; every word seems to carry weight, as if the story itself is aching to be told.
But while the emotions run deep, the pacing occasionally lags, making certain parts feel drawn out. It’s a read that demands patience and a willingness to sit with complex emotions. The poetic prose shines, though, pulling you back into the world Shushindren has created, even when the plot slows.
For anyone seeking a heartfelt exploration of love’s complications, this book offers a tender, albeit slightly uneven, experience. It’s the kind of story that will linger, especially for those who don’t mind the gentle, lingering pace.
The Heart to Seek Part I is a heartfelt exploration of Creerloshin's journey in seeking love, diving deep into his romantic experiences, from early crushes to the emotional challenges of unreciprocated love. The protagonist’s vulnerability and reflections on love are presented with sincerity, giving an intimate look into his inner world.
However, the focus on repeated romantic disappointments makes the story feel somewhat repetitive, and certain emotional moments may come across as prolonged, adding a sense of heaviness to the narrative. For a reader like me who prefers more variety or faster development, the constant cycle of heartache feels overwhelming and the emotional focus a little too intense.
Overall, the book offers a genuine portrayal of perseverance in the pursuit of love. If you enjoy introspective stories about personal growth, this one is for you.
I would like to thank the author for the opportunity to be an ARC reviewer for this book.
I went into this thinking it was just another romance, but nope this book grabbed my heart, squeezed it, and left me in deep feels. It’s not just about finding love; it’s about understanding it, losing it, and realizing that every person we meet leaves a mark on us🙃
Creerloshin’s journey is raw, messy, and painfully real. Through 24 different connections, he learns, grows, and unlearns what love really means. Some moments made me smile, others made my heart ache, and a few had me just sitting there, rethinking everything I knew about relationships.
The best part? It’s the little things 🥹the nostalgia, the symbols, the way memories stick with him. It’s emotional but not over-the-top dramatic, making it feel so real. The writing flows effortlessly, pulling you in and making you a silent observer of his life.
If you’ve ever loved, lost, or questioned what love really is, this book will hit different(trust me)
