Few
years back when I had started reviewing I never had imagined the wonderful
books I would be getting to review in future. Every time I see an author
request for review or hold a new book in my hand I beam. For I see the effort
that goes behind that book, the number of hours spent typing away, imagining,
creating this story, drafting, re-drafting and then of course the long process
of getting it published. The hard work shows in those crispy pages that I turn
and begin my journey with the author.

Me
thinks
Love
and relationships as a genre is something I really enjoy reading as well as
writing in my blogs. When the author approached me for this book I did not even
give it a second thought as I knew I wanted to read this. Who wouldn’t after
such a pretty cover page? I love reading books with pretty cover pages.
I
began reading the book half expecting the same college drama, couple falling in
love, differences, break ups and then ofcourse finally happys-the-endings. But
then the author proved me wrong. For though the premise looks very
run-of-the-mill types make no mistake. It is anything but a common story being
retold by someone else. Rather it is an uncommon story never before told,
waiting to be heard by each one of us.
I
loved the lead characters and the way author has described them he has made
them come alive before your eyes. You can feel their pain, their hurt, love and
anger. You cry with them, laugh with them, are afraid when they fight and will
rejoice when they are smiling in life. You witness family values, ethics,
morals, love, friendship, enmity and a lot more in those pages beautifully expressed
by the author. Moreover the most
appreciable part is where he has described the female protagonist’s dilemma so
nicely making you wonder if it written by a female author.
Beautifully
written and I must say for a debut novel this has been well written. Though there
are a few places where the story seems a bit stretched in between otherwise the
narrative is gripping enough to make you want to complete the whole story in
one go.
