Roaming on the streets can sometimes get u an interesting thing. We just moved into a book store by roadside on one of the weekends. Me, Shuchi and Vinayak, 3 of us were just looking at the books in the stall and Vinayak and shuchi were talking about the good literature that is available and which they read in recent times. I was bizi in looking at the stuff that I was interested in [;)]
Anyways, after VinShin's suggestion, Shuchi bought this book called "Five Points Someone" by Chetan Bhagat !!
Again Shuchi bought one new book to read which I was sure he won't complete it as usual !!
But thsi time I was wrong, Shuchi ne us book ko 2 din me hi khatam kar diya and asked me to have a look at it !! See, I am not into reading at all except the magazines and newspapers which I never miss to read out!!
But, as I am having ample time in my hands to pass the time, I thought of reading it !! While on the drive to company, I started to read it!! At last I started !!
This book is really amazing, the story of 3 friends in the IIT Delhi campus. The story starts with a humorous note. The protogonist Hari, his smart friend Ryan and their 'always in trouble friend' Alok !! These friends start to enjoy their college days than to concentrate on the studies like we did in our Engineering !! The story unfolds some true touching scenes, though Hari is the protogonist, Ryan, Alok and even Neha [ Hari's GF ] is given their space to voice thir views in the story.
Every scene described was like happening live in front of me. Cheta's style of writing is very lively yaar !!
Every relation in the story unfolds before you and you start liking the characters for their realistic approach.
"The Longest Day in My Life" is the chapter that is really exciting, well written and that you would like to finish in stretch reading.
Anyways, a must read book and chance to live through those old college days again ...!!!
