Chetan Bhagat was once a writer who amazed me with his simple language and pace full story telling style. I really liked his “Five Point Someone” and “Three Mistakes of My Life”. But this new book, named “Half Girl Friend” is really intolerable. It has nothing to offer new. The same old Bollywood styled story that has repeated more than anything else in this Country.
I dont know how I comleted this book. The story start with same plot. A Patna boy named Madhav Jha who is depressed about his lost love and same dialogues that we see on movies daily. He tells his story to the author(that is how the plot is described. The typical Chetan style). How he met her, how easily he fall in love with her, and how he lost her.
Then he founds some clue about her from her diary and he madly go for her and the story ends with the expected climax. The book will really disappoint the chetan bhagat fans. There is nothing special in the story and it is just a bunch of waste ful papers.
