A Feeling Beyond Words by Abhishek Kothari

2011-12-06T10:43:00.000-08:00

A feeling beyond words by Abhishek Kothari is dedicated to every person who is in love as said by him; however I would say only for those who have, or who are ready to have, strong beliefs about unconditional relationship. Certainly a must read book for the girls who is not aware how genuinely, intensely & deeply a guy can fall for a girl. Many authors had tried explaining what love means, what relationship means however everyone have come up with their own defined words and there is no one definition followed for it. A feeling beyond words will give you many such good definitions of love & relationship, worth knowing and learning. The plus point in the novel is the philosophical thoughts shared by the author with readers - Thoughts about love, about relationship, about human being, about feeling that is certainly beyond words. He brilliantly captured those feelings in words through this novel.

A good & must read for people who love philosophy. Those who like romantic novels, if started, will certainly make it till end & the full credit goes to the author as the way he had set the plot is very interesting, particularly the start and then taking us many years back creates a lot curiosity about the ending. As mentioned earlier, philosophical thoughts shared is something worth reading & exploring. However for those who are looking for some interesting story or a good fictional storyline I would suggest not to go for this novel, as it has no story at all. The story or I will say the novel revolves around a guy falling in love for four times with different experiences every time and of course different girls every time, that’s it, is the story. Sometimes in between you might even get lost for which girl the author is talking about. Many times back and forth from past to present along with the weak story line creates a bit of confusion.

A story starts with a guy dreaming about a girl who is not with her though she loved him & though he loved her. The story then takes us through the journey of love that transforms an adolescent to an adult. A boy who deeply loves a girl but he was unfortunate enough to get her and had to suffer every time due to the completion between love, life and fate. During his childhood he had the only best friend as his sister, but fate has something else for him. He loved a girl but could never reveal his feeling to her. He gave everything for her; even his sincerity and he started changing completely. He lost control on everything he was good at & he finally started losing the control on his life. He again fell in love but this time he lost her due to his past reputation. Fortunately or unfortunately, he managed to find a girl who could bring him back to himself. They became best friends and he started loving her. Did he succeed in getting the love this time? Who was Saimi? What role she played in his life? Was Saimi the girl of his life? Did he manage to win the competition with love, life and fate? The end of this novel is really powerful and very much surprising, something unexpected, however it depicts a very true meaning of love and relationship.

I am broke! Love me by Animesh Verma

2011-06-04T03:19:00.000-07:00

I am broke, love me is the 2^nd novel by Animesh Verma, however I read this one before and so would be writing about it first. I am broke, love me is a vigorous, youthful novel focusing on major concerns a youth encounters in his/her life during college and profession. It has excellent story that will definitely enhance your curiosity as and when you will move ahead in story and it is really appreciable in the way Animesh have managed to juggle the past and present maintaining the flow of story. Even though being a fictional plot, Animesh have successfully managed to truly motivate the youth for better.

During the start of I am broke, love me; there was a feeling that author is lacking in vocabulary as few sentences or idioms were repeated very often. This was something strange observed in his writing. However, that illusion soon broke as I went further with story. By the time I reached the end, it was sure he has perfectly scripted this story. Also, at start there was a feeling it has typical story line – A college life, a guy – Armaan, his friends, falling in love, etc – however, it takes a good turn once the story takes you to the present from past and Armaan enters back into the displeasing state of RECESSION. Armaan faces everything at his young age in India – emotion, true love, drug addiction, corrupt politics, racism, recession, starting a company, death of a youth due to recession & rebel against racism.

The recession tension was up to some extent lacking as it could not create that panic while reading, however the consequence of recession is excellently expressed in the story. The love story of Varun (Armaan’s friend) is one of the most romantic parts of the story. Similarly, Armaan giving away everything and taking care of Vidisha in hospital, youth giving away his life fighting against political system (racism) & against recession is really something that will certainly touch heart of many readers.

The story starts with Armaan working in U.S. in some finance company and enjoying his best days of life without any responsibilities and fear, unaware that it won’t last long. The RECESSION takes him back to India and makes him jobless. He turns back to his IIT hostel and meets his junior and friends to recall his past. He recalls how he fell in love with Vidisha, how she left him and how unfortunately they met again when he realized that his one action have ruined Vidisha’s life. He manages to help Vidisha bring back to her life and make her fall in love with him just to leave him one day. He recalled how he & his friends started a company that didn’t flourish as he fought with his forever friend (Varun) and could not give time to his friends for his deed. He had lost everything – job, love and friends. He continued giving interviews in many companies but hardly managed to get the job. He patches up with friend and continues to search for both – love and job. He meets an upcoming model, a maverick and another youth for whom drug is the only life and immense pleasure that takes him to a new journey. Recession was not only enough for him and he becomes a victim of racism due to politics. In front of his eyes a youth dies fighting against racism and what he could manage is to sit and watch – something that every youth is doing. Does he continue searching for job and Vidisha or does he join politics or started a company? How he fights the recession, what can bring back his love of life, how he managed to get justice for the youth who died rebelling against racism is something that is very interesting to read.

This novel I am broke, love me by Animesh is very different from other novels as it does not only revolves against love & sex. It takes you through various aspects of a youth’s life stuck between love, responsibilities and patriotism & truly motivates you to fight and stand up for your country and rights. It showcases various aspects such as struggle during the recession, relationship building, true love, awakening against racism and corrupt politics of India.

Trust me by Rajashree

2010-07-21T10:12:00.000-07:00

Trust me is a first novel by Rajashree. Earlier, she has written and directed a film, The Rebel, and so you can very well relate the novel with a typical bollywood flick. However, this love story, “Trust Me,” is indeed different, not like typical bollywood love story where a Hero meets heroine, they fall in love and either it happens to be a love triangle or a khadus (furious) dad of heroine becomes a hindrance. It’s different, a love story of fallible and struggling actor and a mature & experienced girl. I missed one point; The Rebel, her movie has won a National award and was screened at many film festivals.

“Trust Me” is a perfect entertainment for the readers who love a bit of humor with a sense of maturity. The story is all about seeking for a true love while dealing with lust and finally finding the difference. Rajashree has been very much successful in blending the bollywood style of making films with her story lines.

The story starts with a breakup of Karan and Parvati a.k.a Paro. While she was working in an ad film company she had met Karan, her mister right who unfortunately turns out to be the wrong. She had no one to share her grieves and comes the fatherly Mr. Bose, her boss. The interaction with Mr. Bose turns out to be so horrible that she never wish to see him again. She quits her job and had learnt one thing from her experience so far “All men are bastards.” Her only hope left was her friends, Saira and Kavita. They always managed to keep their “I told you so” attitude and happened to be the only one source of help for her, where she can relax.

With the help of Kavita, she managed to get job in film industry and joins the unit of Jumbuwant Sinha a.k.a Jumbo, assisting him in making latest hindi feature film. Jumbo is very interesting character and reading about him and his style of making films will definitely make it most enjoyable and comic. She meets Manoj, a fun-loving and practical guy, the chief assistant who proves to be very much helpful for her to understand the norms and terms of working in Hindi film industry. He makes sure to compliment or comment on every women he meets because he doesn’t want anybody to feel unwanted.

Finally, enters the hero of the story, Mr. Rahul Kapoor, the side hero of the film, the struggling actor, who claims to have fallen in love with Parvati. But Parvati had learnt a lesson and tries to ignore her. After listening to the theories from Kavita and Saira, she manages to build a sexual relationship with Rahul on the foundation of lust; the relationship where everything is allowed but. She thought it’s a good way to get rid of Karan, her ex. She manages to keep a safe distance with Rahul but he was getting deeply involved with Paro. But Paro is older now and smarter enough. Did Paro, find a real love while getting involved in strong sexual desire? Did Paro was convince by Rahul that he truly loves her? After all Rahul belongs to Bollywood. Did Rahul give up convincing Paro?

This first novel by Rajashree is a fun filled romantic story set in bollywood. She has beautifully managed to make it lighthearted and entertaining with a sense of maturity. The writing clearly reveals the maturity of Rajashree. This might not be suitable for the first time reader but definitely a must read book for those who like reading.

Veronika decides to die

2010-06-10T23:22:00.000-07:00

Veronika decides to die - a novel by world’s most renowned author Paulo Coelho. I read his two other books as well, The Alchemist and Eleven Minutes. I cannot even dare to write reviews of his novel. I am indeed a naive to tell anything about him. His books had life enhancing impact on the millions of people. But then I thought I can obviously share my views on his novels. I won’t write anything about his writing, because he is for sure one of the best author whose books I have ever read. But at least I can write about the story and something about why to read this book, so those who are not aware about this novel gets a chance of reading one of his best creation. I will write about Eleven Minutes in my next review.

Veronika decides to die is a story of a girl of this generation. You can relate it to any of our Y2K generation girls, she had everything she could wish for. She is young, pretty and beautiful. She is attractive enough that the list of her boyfriends never ended. She has a steady job and was blessed to have a loving family. She believed herself to be completely normal. Yet, something was lacking and she is not happy; and one fine day she decides to die. To find out what was the reason behind such decision, you will have to read the novel and on finding the reason I am sure you will comment “what a silly reason to die.” But if you will give a deep thought you also find yourself getting irritated while going through same stage. She wished to die smoothly without any pain and so she takes an overdose of sleeping pills only to wake up some days later in Villette, the local mental hospital or asylum.

Unfortunate of not meeting her destiny, she started regretting of being alive but soon was happy to hear from doctor that her heart is damaged and she has only few days to live. Those few days took her to the journey of life where she experienced what madness is. Of course, what else she could learn in asylum. She got a chance to meet three most important characters of her life in asylum and they were the reason where she understood that the every second of existence is a choice that we make between living and dying.

The three characters in asylum; Mari suffering from panic disorder because she wanted to leave everything and help victims of war, Zedka a depressed women searching for her first love and Eduard a schizophrenic son of Ambassador who wanted to fulfill his dreams or likings going against his parents’ wish. All three were normal, but they wanted to do something different and were not allowed to do so but had to follow what other normal people were doing. Did Vernocia’s stay with Zedka, Mari and Eduard change the fortune of Veronika? Did she change her decision of dying? But doctor said her heart was already damaged. Did some miracle happen? What happened to Zedka, Mari and Eduard? I won’t reveal what impact the three characters had on Veronika, you will have to find out on your own; but I am sure this novel will give you elating impact on your life.

Most of us don’t choose but always learn to follow and are forced to stay in an environment created by our society. Anyone who chooses their own destiny or dares to do something different or challenge the rules created by our society is counted as MAD. We all have some form of madness inside us. People who want to do something different should be allowed to follow their dream and should be encouraged, instead of demotivating them. Discouraging them will lead to psychological disorder and they might end up their life in asylum, just like Mari, Zedka and Eduard. Every second in our life is the choice we make between dying and living, so help people to choose living instead of dying.

This book has given a very good definition of madness; it says “Anyone who lives in their own world is mad, people who are different from other are mad.”

All the four characters described in this story are worth reading and it reminds us that every moment in our life is special and precious. Paulo Coelho is a storyteller with the power to inspire nations and to change people’s lives. This time as well he has not left any point in giving us a moving and uplifting message of life.

Master of the game by Sidney Sheldon

2010-01-31T05:12:00.000-08:00

“If you want to win, you have to learn to be a master of the game.” This is what the master storyteller Sidney Sheldon portrays through his novel “Master of the Game – the master of the unexpected.” He has written screenplays for twenty plus motion pictures. Almost all his novels including Master of the Game are international bestseller. Many of his novels including this have been made into highly successful television mini-series.

Master of the Game is a mystery novel – a story about an empire Kruger Brent Ltd, a story about a girl, a woman Kate Blackwell. This story lasts till 5^th generation of McGregor/Blackwell family. So obviously you need patience to read this long novel; but believe me if you will start this story you will never feel to discontinue reading this novel in between.

Kate Blackwell is one of the world’s most powerful women and the only owner of million dollar company Kruger Brent ltd. She is daughter of a diamond prospector Mr. Jamie McGregor who struck it rich beyond his wildest dreams. Mr. McGregor was one of the thousands of poor diamond prospectors who came to South Africa to become rich. Few had fate to support their dreams while others were shattered by getting betrayed from the masters of treachery. Mr. McGregor was also betrayed by Salomon Van Der Merwe, a rich man owing a general store. Jamie fought for his share of diamonds but was almost killed by Van Der Merwe and his men. However his life savior helped him and now was the time for Mr. McGregor to play a game of revenge and retaliate on Van Der Merwe. Who was Jamie’s Life Savior, how they both counterattacked Van Der Merwe? What role Margaret, the daughter of Van Der Merwe played in this story? Who was Banda? How Jamie became the master in his revenge is one of the best narrated parts of this novel?

Jamie McGregor created a company Kruger Brent ltd. The name of the company itself is a mystery. He had a son who was killed and a daughter who was kidnapped when she was just one year old. How he managed to bring back her daughter, the future of Kruger Brent Ltd?

Kate Blackwell managed to grow the company further in the middle of murders, enemies, family, friends and psychotic people. Just like her father she was master in what she did. Story continues with Kate in her school days and her transition from a child to a girl in front of her mother Margaret and David. She loved David who was older in age handling Kruger Brent Ltd., along with her mother Margaret after the death of her father Jamie McGregor. David fell in love with another girl and was about to marry her. Does Kate manage to get David, if yes what game she played and was she the master?

Kate soon was unfortunate and was handling the company alone after the death of David. There was a guy Roger, who was only interested in girls and sex, was working with Kate helping her in managing her empire. How was Roger convinced to stay with Kate to manage the company was again a game and indeed she was master in it?

Kate had a son named Tony; he wanted to be a painter and wanted to paint the world with his talent. But for Kate he was the only hope who can take over the empire after Kate. So does Tony agreed with Kate and run the company or he became a painter? Who was master this time Kate or Tony? Tony’s marriage was again a big game; he thought he won the game by getting married to the girl he loved but the fact was something different there was the master who made Tony to marry his beloved and the master was none other than Kate Blackwell. Kate’s level of mastery in her games & the way she betrayed people in game for their betterment or for the betterment of Kruger Brent ltd is something worth reading.

Tony was happy after getting married to her beloved and had twins daughter – Eve and Alexandra. Tony’s wife met an accidental death after the birth of Eve and Alexandra and Tony could not bear the pain when he came to know that her mother was somehow responsible for the death of his wife and he became unstable mentally; so he was shifted to asylum. Was this Kate’s game or game of the nature?

Eve and Alexandra were opposite. Eve was smart, extrovert, competitive and just like her grandmother Kate, master of all the game. Alexandra was silent, decent and reserved like her father Tony. Kate had no intention of letting outsiders take over what her father and mother and she and David had suffered for so long. She wanted both of them to grow up as early as possible and get married so that a member of McGregor family can handle her business and take it to the next step.

But what was there in store for Kate was incredible. She believed she was the master of all the game but her grand daughter Eve was two steps ahead. Eve was very competitive, jealous & egoistic in everything that she had to share with Alexandra. Eve planned every step to put Alexandra to death, but she hardly got any success. How Kate managed to work out for the next owner of Kruger Brent ltd and how she managed both her grand daughters is mystery in itself? The story is full of varied emotions – love, romance, sex, jealousy, betrayal, contempt, fear, disgust, remorse, anticipation and surprises.

One thing is for sure, whether or not Kate succeeded in becoming master in her game and finding the next owner for Kruger Brent ltd but Sidney Sheldon became a master storyteller at the top of his game.

I too had a love story by Ravinder Singh

2009-12-25T07:05:00.000-08:00

“I too had a love story” is Ravinder Singh’s debut novel. As tag line reveals it is a heartbreaking true love story. Not all love stories have happy ending, some stay incomplete but according to him they are beautiful in their own way. I too had a love story is one such clean-handed and beautiful love story of Ravin and Khushi emotionally shared by Ravinder Singh aka Ravin. Sharing with world through novel something so personal and touching is truly commendable. “Simple, honest and touching” is what N.R, Narayana Murthy says about this novel.

While reading this novel you will never feel you are reading a debut novel, each and every emotion is extraordinarily revealed in this book – the first look, the first touch, the first call, first SMS, first kiss, feeling of first love and finally loosing your first love. It is one of the most touching and fair love stories I had ever come across. My eyes were wet while I reached towards the end of this story.

The story starts with get together of Ravin and his friends. They discuss their future and make each of them realize that now is the time to find the better half for each of them. Ravin, back to his work, tries to seek the love of his life on Shaadi.com – the matrimonial website. After many unsuccessful attempts he gets his match Khushi. The story then continues with their daily sms, phone calls, night talks, good night sweet dreams, miss you and love you. “Love was in Air - modern day gadgets like mobile phone and internet brings love of life for Ravin and Khushi”. Yes they met on Shaadi.com, continued with chat, upgraded to Mobile and finally they fall in love even though they both haven’t met.

Their love story allows the participation of beautiful and innocent romantic episodes between both of them on mobile and when they met once at Faridabad. Ravinder has narrated the love story in commendable form and all the readers of this novel will definitely fall in love with Khushi and Ravin and their innocent love story.

While going through such a beautiful love life how would have Ravin reacted when the most beautiful person and precious possession of his life one day goes away from him forever? The climax of this story is the most touching part of this novel, and the way Ravin and Khusi’s love story is narrated you will never feel putting the novel aside till you reach the last point of this love story.

Ravinder belives love stories seldom dies and they are meant to stay for generations yet to come and read them. And given the chance to narrate his love story he says --- “Not everyone in this world has the fate to cherish the fullest form of love. Some are born just to experience the abbreviation of it” and dedicates this novel to the loving memory of the girl whom he loved, but could not marry.

I personally recommends this novel for all those people who have experienced the true, first love (successful or unsuccessful) so that they will get one more chance to revive their love stories; people who are yet seeking for their first love so that they will get an opportunity to infer the feeling of first love; people who love reading emotional love stories (i.e. for almost all Indians).

“Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending”. “Smile when it hurts most”. This kind of optimism and hope in the middle of heartbreaking true love life is what this novel is all about.

What followed was crazy night outs with Avantika and eventually Deb was so very much involved with Avantika that he messed up with his friends, exams, placements and CAT. This section is one of best part of this novel.

Since it was not enough for Deb, what would have gone through him when he discovered that two of Avantika's ex boyfriends were crossing out days in jails across different continents. Somehow he manages to overcome the shock, there enters Sri Guru to make his love life terrible. The role Sri Guru played is worth a twist in a story.

“2 States, The story of my marriage” by Chetan Bhagat one of the bestseller author in India, is another master piece from him. Previously, his all three novels “Five point someone”, “One night at Call Centre” and “3 Mistakes of my life” have been the best selling so far. His novels have full of fun loving moments and emotions and can be called a complete bollywood material. Already two bollywood movies “Hello” and “3 Idiots” are made from his two novels “One night at call centre” and Five point someone” respectively and of course 2 States is a exactly what audience in India expect from bollywood movies.

First of all hats off to Mr. Chetan Bhagat for describing two different states of India (two families from two different states) in such beautiful way. He has succeeded in expressing the scenario of each and every Indian family in beautiful words in this novel. All his previous novels deals with the story of friendship in center with few other stories surrounding it.

However, in 2 States his focus is on a love story. It is a love story of a Punjabi boy (Krish) and Tamil girl (Ananya)– a love story of north and south of India. The complete story in this novel is divided into 4 parts, each being creatively narrated: How Punjabi boy and Tamil girl meet and fall in love? How they convince Tamil Family? How they made Punjabi Family realized that South can be adjusted in North? And finally how they helped their parents to understand each other’s parents?

It is not typical love story that we have seen in bollywood movies but indeed it can be one of them very soon. Story starts neither in South nor in north, but in center Gujarat, IIM Ahmadabad, where they meet each other and typical college sequence follows between a guy and girl in college, in campus and its hostel rooms.

Later it moves to South where the Punjabi boy tries very hard and his best to balance his professional life and future in-laws. This section is one of the best part of this entire novel. This section of the story is very expertly narrated and he has successfully balanced the most hilarious and emotional touch in the story.

Well how she managed to impress this Punjabi family and change their thoughts is another interesting part of this novel, however not better than the previous section. Reading this you may feel you are actually watching a bollywood movie.

After done with that now was the biggest hurdle where they have to convince their parents to understand and talk to their future in-laws. But can Punjab and Tamil talk to each other without any kind of ego and and that too in favor of other? That’s the twist (almost a U turn) in the story and can make many emotional reader’s shed tears. Does that mean the story has no happy ending? Well being dedicated to Indian audience it should certainly have a happy ending. So what happens and why that happens is what you have to find out in this beautiful novel: “2 States, The story of my Marriage”.

The only negative point of this novel is that it’s too long for first time or novice readers at least if you compare it with “Five point someone” as people have usual tendency to compare every new creation by individual with his best previous creation. However full marks to Chetan Bhagat for making story interesting at every possible episodes by adding few very uncommon rib tickling instances. It is very difficult to express daily incidents with your family in words making other understands and laugh on them and more importantly making it interesting for third person and he in fact has done much more than that. 2 States will certainly be listed in his ongoing bestsellers list.

Pink or Black by Tishaa

2009-10-17T04:31:00.000-07:00

Tishaa a debutante author has proved herself to be a splendid writer in journey of "Pink or Black". She has gloriously put her thoughts in the words and was successfully able to muster up funny, hysterical and exceptionally odd situational behaviors of the girls in a boarding school.

She has brought out few incidents which I think every teenage girl can relate with their own life. She has beautifully described the boarding school picture by incorporating few exciting episodes that includes some emotions, some girl fights or sometimes even between a guy and girl, girl slapping a guy, failure attempts by a guy for asking a girl for date, full of responsibilities and some hilarious incidents on which I am sure you will never stop laughing every time you will think about it.

She has made a very good attempt to make people realize the importance of teenage years. Usually people have no clue what they actually want to do in those years. This period of the life is the critical period which decides whether you will be a common man following people or you will be a leader and able to take initiatives.

Pink or Black is a story making this very important decision about a girl Tiana, who thinks that she does not even know herself properly. While everyone else were busy in making or changing boyfriends, showing off, boasting and following "in fashion" materialistic beauty of life in their teenage years, she was busy in finding herself. She started her finding herself mission when she realized that she even don't know the answers to few silly questions like who is your favorite actor? What is your favorite color? Do you think you know the answer? Think about it.

She could have done what her friends used to do, by following "this is in" and "that is out" which normally everyone does. She, like others, could have borrowed high tech gadgets or shoes from friends and showed off to entire college instead of the stuffs she had or she liked which were outdated in fashion. She could have made her friends happy by saying that she looks beautiful in that red dress even though she looks terrible in that. But Tiana was different and she chose a path where she would say whatever she felt about the world, their friends, their dress and of course their boyfriends.

Tiana was a beautiful girl and many guys were falling for her, but she used to refuse each of them as finding a boyfriend was also the part of her "finding herself mission". Even though that portrayed her to be egoistic or self centered girl, she didn’t bother and thought she will date only a guy whom she will actually love unlike others who thinks having boyfriends is a status symbol, whoever he is.

But do you think such a mission is easy to achieve. Yes you thought it correctly; it was very difficult for her to go ahead with it to find out whether Pink or Black. She had a fight with her best friend; she never liked her brother going on with her best friend but then how can she say that to her friend after all she had to say what she thought. Her "finding herself" made her life troublesome or she enjoyed every odd and hysterical situation over there. You need to find it out by reading the debut attempt by a fantabulous writer Tishaa.

Finally to end her novel, Tishaa brings Tiana's "finding herself mission" to a situation where she and few of her friends could end up into loosing their life. But whether her mission helped her to save her life or not, if yes, how? Well that's the beautiful suspense stuck in this intellectual, emotional and admired piece of Tishaa's creation.

Or was it the time for them to work for 15 -18 hours or even more, consider investment bank as their first home and go to their actual home just twice a week and in return face daily complaints, threats and what not from their seniors or from HR head only because girls did not agree to sleep with their horny boss and guys wanted to enjoy their life a little bit along with their work.

However after struggling and working nights and days, they somehow are able to manage their work as well as their friendship, but was it enough? May be yes or may be NO as something was waiting for them which they have never dreamt of - "RECESSION"

The story revolves around Abhi, Saurav, Garima and Shruti. Abhi was a topper in his college and was placed in MNC paying him good but not fat salary. All he wanted was to be rich and that’s why he joins The Silverman Finance an Investment Bank. He belongs to a poor family and was very shy to talk to any girl in his college, except with Riya.

Saurav was an IITian and his friends always used to pull his leg for being a virgin. He was fortunate not because he got placed in Silverman Finance but because his dad was a millionaire, strange isn't? Dad millionaire, then why IIT? And why Silverman Finance? Whatever!! Something must be there for him.

Garima a rich, beautiful and a single child whom any one would love to marry. She had a boyfriend. Very quiet not so social and very serious about her love. You will hardly find such girl now days, who is rich and serious about her love affair. She also got through Silverman Finance, thank god as she wanted some change in her life, but why a change is something which you find out as the story progresses.

Shruti a sexy, hot and charming lass, comes from a middle class family. Any one would fall for her; at least she would do wonders in bed. She was in love, something which her parents won't allow, actually her selfish parents won't allow. She belongs to a family where she never wished to stay even for a moment. Her parents want her to get married to some one who can give them money to fulfill their debts and they would never allowed Shruti to work. But when they heard that Shruti got placed in Silverman Finance and was paid 30 lacs a year, they made few calculations and allowed her to continue with the job till she get married.

They all met in Silverman Finance, their friendship began and as the days passed it started getting stronger and stronger. Some of them fall in love again and again!! But circumstances changed and Shruti had to do something which none of them could ever have imagined. They all were shocked and their trust broken, they could no longer understand each other. And they departed.....

Apart from these four, there are lots of interesting characters who add their own spice making this book incredible –

A nasty old lady HR Head, who loves to screw up the life of juniors.
A Horny boss - always looking for a chance to sleep with their mates or juniors
Immediate mentors- trying to help the four but could not because they are as well worried about their position, their job and love.
To add further twist Ex-girlfriend comes back but with new story and new boyfriend.
Son of business tycoon, who makes someone fall in love with him.

Do they ever unite again? What happens to their friendship which they called their family? What about their love? Did Recession threaten to take away their job or their friendship, their love? Were they actually rich? Hmm… If so did they fall in love? Did girls sleep with their boss? Did they get what they wanted?

What do you guys think? Well I think you need to read it immediately to know whether they could retain their friends or their job or both.

Its fun to read Fiction novels. I am sure "Five point someone" has brought many Indians back to the books. The growth in novel readers has been tremendous after the publication of Five point Someone by Chetan Bhagat. This has not only increased an interest of people in reading but has inspired number of writers to share their experience of life in the form of novel and become an "Author". People have published books on their love life, their friendship, their struggle, their corporate life and many more, its just like you name it and there will be a novel on it.
