I have been scammed.
When I first read the blurb, saw the cover, and saw the other sneak peeks of the book, I thought it would be a fun comedy, a light, humour-filled read. But how wrong I was. No doubt, there was humour. There was dark humour. There was humour to balance out the heavy scenes. There was humour even in the awkward moments, just enough to soften the edges. But almost on every page, I cried out loud. I was crying ugly. I was crying bitterly. I was crying raw because it was so emotional, and it was so personal for me.
This book is so raw, so realistic, that it just opens your wounds and lets them hurt. It lays everything bare. The main thing here is that you let it hurt. You don’t cradle the pain. You don’t try to soothe it. You don’t rush to fix it. You just let it hurt until you finally feel like you can move on from it.
This book shows what a true reconciliation between two estranged friends actually looks like. It was so real, so painfully real, that I cried my eyes out. The writing is absolutely fabulous. The humor, the dark humour, and the desi touch, the desi vibes — absolutely on point.
Last but not least, I need Rohan’s book. A proper book about him. About him getting closure with his family. About him finally facing everything and confronting them. About him finding his own love interest and so many other things. I just love his character. There were so many times when I wanted to cry with him and hug him fiercely. He deserves the world.
He always told Veer that people who don’t value his worth or make him feel small don’t deserve him. But for once, I wish he had said that to himself. My heart broke and still aches for him.
Veer’s story also felt like a harsh reality and was very relatable. But in a way, I felt that Veer still has his family beside him, while Rohan has no one.
This book will make you cry like a baby and laugh like an absolute idiot. A perfect read to celebrate friendships.
