Description

There's this diary where Neil jots down the name of the best person he meets, every year. Come year 2007, he writes down a name that no one ever expected him to. Here's a story that's punctuated with a number of twists and turns that bring out a summary of what life is all about. It's about four people... naaa... scratch that... it's about just that one person; and now, it’s your turn to find out who that is...

One thing that I realized, rather say my readers made me realize is that, somewhere unintentionally in my last book review; I disclosed a little bit too much of the story. So learning from my mistakes, this time I’ am not getting into the story part-at all.

The above synopsis about the book is a cut-copy –paste from the facebook page of the book.

The day I heard that ABC’s book is coming, I was excited.

I started reading this book at 5.30 and completed it at 7.30, 2 hrs prior to my target of 9.30.

The book takes you through life of Neil, and that one person…

 (And this is the maximum part of story I can share with you.)

The book shares a lot of funny moments, rather the book tries to be funny at lot of places but fails terribly This book is light love fiction, but like all modern day writers  ABC seems to be suffering from CBS(Chetan Bhagath Syndrome).

This book does not have the major characteristics of a fiction novel, which we usually see; the continuous use of word F#ck, the love making scene, those one line wonders. It is a clean love story, but Somewhere in this book, ABC, missed out on making sure that the readers stick to the book.

The book takes up a major issue prevailing in our society; the issue of choosing to live your dreams. The issue in broader sense brings forward a women’s prospective, her dreams to marry the man of her choice, but by making the love of her life, leave behind, but somehow fails to connect with the audience.

This book has a simple, little, sweet love story which does ‘end’ on a sad note but with a clear message of a happy ending; but…..(Everything b4 but is bullshit and everything after but is censored..:))

Richard Ford once said that it takes as much effort to produce a bad book as a good book, so I do herby place my token of appreciation for the effort made….

In my final words, I would suggest, read this book at least once; with no great expectations…Because….

“Once you've put one of his books down, you simply can't pick it up again.”

By the way my BBM status msg is " THE WORST BOOK I READ IN 2012!!"
