FACE THE Review: Someone Like You
About the Book:
The hum of a motorbike.
The uproar of the crowd in the stadium.
The cheering and clapping.
All fell silent…
Just the thumping of their hearts remained and a question were they going to lose him?
Thanks to the makeover by her sisters friends, the nerdy Niharika entered college more confident, more attractive. She meets the sweet, shy Tanmay, and the spoilt but lovely Pia and they become best friends. And when Akshat and she began dating, life finally seemed to be falling in place.
Except that it wasnt…
Tanmays success in football had begun to change him. Akshats perfection seemed like a front for something dark and sinister. And their college senior Karthik? His aggressiveness was a cover for his mysterious past.
Someone Like You is a powerful and touching story of friendship, love and betrayal.

My Views:
After many days I read a book, there are many reasons why I picked this book. But, now I can say I’m happy that I read it. The story is gripping; I loved the way all the characters are sketched. The book has its emotions which touch your heart. It makes you laugh at places. I liked the character of Niharika, she is properly portrayed. There are scenes which can give Goosebumps. The climax is proper and suits the story. The cover of the book is simple.
I would give it 3.5/5
