Of Course I love You.......

TILL I FIND SOMEONE BETTER........
Hello friends , Yesterday i read this novel ( "Of course I love you...Till i find someone better ") by Durjoy Dutta and Manvi Ahuja .Prep leave started yesterday i felt void ( what should i do to before going for end semester preparation .) I found the book in Satyanarayan's room around 7pm on 19th nov . Ok , a date with the book was fixed . So, i started around 00.45 am 20th november , and i was able to finish the book by 23.30 pm same day .

It was refreashing novel , with some chetan bhagat flavour . Last 100 pages were good and i did appreciate the storyline the writer had to say . Many things from college days were there ( writer is DCEite , 2008 passout ) so it was fun going through the pages that talked about p*rn , movies , s*x , alcohol , and girlfriends ( around these things , days of a normal engineering student revolves ) .No points for guessing only a few are able to get girlfriend .

Some practical points came ....for example
" I was tired of heart wrenching stories of success around me ." This told about peer pressure one has to go through . One has to work to remain at par with one's friends . One more line was also regarding this . " I prayed for her to do well . I knew she would get it and felt little sad about it ." Yes , in real life also we pray for our friends success and knowing that if they succeed they will not be in same league as us , we become sad and sometimes envious ( "I hate to be envious" ..but ...).
Two-three points i would like to talk about before closing ( that i did like )
1: Subjects fail to make their presence felt even during examination ( during last semester of engineering ) and one spends time thinking about what to do in next few months ( best days of life ) .

2: Plastic surgeons still can't rival god ( nature can be better word , as i am non-believer ) ( yes !!! sometimes we come across some faces which justify this statement ).

3: richer the girls get sexier they are . ( a debatable topic .....can be topic of our group discussion )

However , everything is not good about the book .I don't think use of so much of dirty words ( i don't call them dirty anymore ) ( f**k , D**k etc ..) was required to make the novel look youthful . A better editing is required , some pages are really unnecessary . May be those pages can be removed . Still , best complements to young writers ( Durjoy and Manvi ) . I would like to thank Chetan bhagat , who has inspired so many to write and so many to read as well ( i am one of them ).
My next blog entry will be GONE WITH THE WIND!!!

Hey Neeraj!

Good to know that u v taken to reading. Chetan Bhagat and Sidney Sheldon are good writers to start with.

If you v exams starting in one week, dont start reading Gone With the Wind coz it's voluminous apart from one of the World's Classic. So, it has be read over lots of caffeine(tea) and nicotine(coffee). You ll like it a lot, i am sure :)

Wish you Happy Reading!

i agree with your views, gone with the wind is abeautiful book but slow. it is based on the american civil war but it is a timeless luv story.
