Zero Percentile 2.0 by Neeraj Chhibba




| Author: Neeraj Chhibba | Publisher: Rupa & Co. | Price: 140/- | Pages: 257 |


I was glad to put hands on this book. The quality of print and page is something which makes the first impression and it goes all as an 'A Grade' for this book. 


Cover design speaks a tale.


This book is a sequel to 'Zero Percentile' by the Author, I did not get a chance to read his first book and was in two minds, will I be able to get a grip with the story line?

With a doubt, I started reading and I was engrossed. The Author successfully managed to keep the story line going through in a way that it does not impact the reader who is unaware of what happened in the first part of the book. At some pages it interrupted with a '*' sign, which is given in the book to the topic relates with the first book, it was awful but it did not interrupt the story line.

The story is about a group of friends, who are dreamy about opening their own software company, going through up's and down's and emotions flows along. One character in the book is fighting with a deadly decease and while reading it reminded me of 'Sumit', one of the main characters in Vikrant Shukla's debut Novel "Call Centre An Inside Story", the emotions and feeling running were expressed well.

I was impressed with the Editing as well, there are editing errors but only a professional can point that. Errors are not evident enough to pinch the reader.

It is good to see sequel series for books coming out in India as well, it will be too early to say if it will catch the mass as the Indian readers are yet not following anyone, they just pick up what they find suitable to their mood, personality and the availability of time. Zero Percentile 2.0 is a good effort and should be appreciated.

Overall, characterization in the book impressed me. It is a good read!
