As you might
be aware by now I am an investment banker by profession and I get to meet a lot
of entrepreneurs in my profession. I always wondered what goes on in their
minds something on the lines of before and after. This book attracted me for
the sole reason as it seemed to have all the answers to my questions. Because shit happened by Harsh Snehanshu is a
befitting reply to the before and after and perhaps even in-between as to what
do these entrepreneurs think while they are dreaming larger than life dreams.

About the
author
Harsh
Snehanshu is a blogger turned bestselling author, ardent photographer cum
traveler and an entrepreneur. A little bit of googling tells me this book is a
real life story based on the author’s own experiences based on setting up of
his own business. To know more about him please read or

Me thinks
The first
thing that catches your eye is the title of this book. Honestly it simply
perked up my curiosity to read it so as to know what exactly happened. Because
shit happened is a true account of the events that happened when the author set
up his first company. Hilarious, witty, engrossing and interesting are the
first few words that come to my mind after I finished reading it.
The author
has managed to put his heart out in the narration with use of choicest words to
create the desired impact on the readers. The story starts with how the author
got the idea for his business, moving on to where he gathers his friends into
it and finally to the stage where three becomes a crowd and all that is clear
is chaos.
Friendship
and love are known to have created wars between Gods while we are mere humans.
We cannot stay unaffected by all of these. In this story love and friendship
play a pivotal role as trust is put at stake, only to be lost. In the race for
power, name, fame and wealth everything is left behind as the only thing
visible clearly is success, at any cost. I loved the simple day-to-day language
the author has used in this book as it made me connect very easily with it. The detailing done by the author in terms of
the cover page, the title of the book and the narration is so impeccable that
it makes a thohttp://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=4254726020921323465#editor/target=post;postID=5871905763191590100roughly enjoyable read!
There were
instances where I was so engrossed in reading their journey that I have almost
jumped out of my chair screaming @*&^…noo… you cannot be doing this! The
gripping narrative makes you feel as if you are on some roller coaster ride
where you don’t know when it is going to end and how.
A highly
recommended book for students, aspiring entrepreneurs and all those people who
have the go-getter attitude in life.
