Chetan Bhagat does a great job in taking us through four years of college life at the IIT. Hari( the author)’s life at IIT revolves arnd Alok and Ryan, who happen to be his best buddies and ofcourse his budding romance with Neha, daughter of the head of the department.
With a very ’’out of campus’’ language, he appeals to all readers with young minds.. His realisations on relationships and as he evolves in his campus life have been well brought out.. You laugh at the authors self appallations, feel good abt the light monents with Neha and feel sorry as the author comes to terms with his ’’underperformer ’’ image....
An unusual style of writing is when you get your characters to speak for themselves.. chetan does this well in the chapters alok , neha, ryan speaks.. these really need to be handled well as the author has to out himself in the characters shoes to pen them
This book does make one curious about the other works that could come from this author.. His ’’ one night at the call center ’’ would definitely bea follow up to this read and pehaps be an even more interesting read...
Overall a very nice read..
