Editorial Review
It's again Bhagat's love love and love. But the twists, more unexpected matters makes us surprised. loved this work. happy for half girlfriend. --By vinoth on October 7, 2014 Excellent book. Madhav and Riya make a good story and it takes new turns when they go on spaceship and explore new intergalactical planetary systems. Book deals nicely with the poverty, terrorism, depression during world war 2 and world political problems. Or may be not, I am just hallucinating. This is a simple book with simple story. Go read it, you will enjoy it. --By John Q on November 16, 2014 Once upon a time, there was a Bihari boy called Madhav. He fell in love with a rich girl from Delhi called Riya. Madhav did not speak English well. Riya did. Madhav wanted a relationship. Riya didn't. Riya just wanted friendship. Madhav didn't. Riya suggested a compromise. She agreed to be his half-girlfriend. Is this a book or a screen play is what kept confusing me while I was reading this book. In fact I could see someone like Arjun/ Ranveer playing Madhav and Deepika playing a Ria. This is a book with the complete dialogues of a movie, sentence after sentence. Every page of the book feels like it has been written to be made into a movie. So much that the book is separated into three sections called Acts. Talking about the book, it is very much in the genre of the author s previous offerings. Boy meets girl in a cool campus (moving away from the IIT/ IIM to Stephens, probably in an attempt to widen the reader base), and falls in love. Add some drama, a little sex (must in a CB book), whole lot of daily life situations and some emotionally moving dialogues. You have a story ready. There is not much relevance of the title in the book, and it seems more a ploy to fulfil the authors fetish obsession with numbers (all his books have a number in them). Also, as it was touted in the media, there is not much relevance of the Language divide those who know English and those who don t. This again seems like a concept that has been force fitted into the theme of the book, to make it relevant to the present day reader. This is one thing that Chetan Bhagat needs to be given complete credit for. He knows the pulse of the nation and what the present day youth is thinking. He knows their fears and the dreams, and the daily challenges they face. --By Abhi... on June 9, 2015
