I will start with the cover of the book. Cover is decent, though looks dull. Quality of paper and print is good and is soothing to hold and read. It doesn’t look like a quality book and a quality read at the first look however I was looking forward to read it.
Title of the book was something which attracted me, not a stereo typed normal love story types. I had high expectations from this book.
This book is just another, regular, mono types love story which we might have heard, read or seen somewhere. Not really written. Said or heard the first time. Most of the debut writers in India ring the same bell, some way or the other.
As far as the story line is concerned, this book has nothing new to offer. It has all the ingredients of a typical love story.
The tragedy in the end is very make over types; it looks unreal and also unsurprising because the reader already knows all along that Megha's love for Raghav is not true. Also, most of the incidents in the story are so predictable. Flow of the book is a kind, where the reader already knows what is going to come up on the next page. That’s not what a reader picks up a book for!
Looking at the writing style of the author now, “Somewhat” is used so many times in the book that this word kept haunting me for long after I kept the book down. The good part is that Author or editor of the book spent good time with the grammar and editing of the book, I didn’t find much errors. Good job on that part.
Overall, it is a decent read for 125 bucks, if someone is looking for reading something on a lighter note however not really recommended to anyone who is willing to read something unpredictable.
