This story veer off from stereotypical happy love stories, however it is still mawkish from certain viewpoints. The justification to some happenings in the story is missing, I think. Maybe it is just me, who could not take in too dramatic things pretty easily. There are certain books in which when people die, you cry while reading; those books are paradigms of expression, narration and use of apt words. And there are other books where death is portrayed indifferently and there is nothing much we can do but accept the author, like in detective stories. The books betwixt are the ones I hate, I try as much as I can to shed a tear for the person who departs during a story but I can not.
Like I really stare without blinking against the direction of frail wind so that there accumulates a some tears and I could cry but it does not happen. The emotions are not carried from book to me. I then do not know whether I was moved by the case or not and end up locking it as a good book. This is that book.
This story was predictable, or the author deliberately made it easy for the reader to connect the dots till the end, so that the climax won't come as a surprise. The climax perturbed me and I have so many questions when it ended. I like that, abrupt ending. It is always a solace to me when there is an abrupt ending. On the whole, book was decent and editing was crappy. I mean, I cannot expect a book without mistakes from Srishti publishers, can I? The last few pages turned the whole thing around, I was really perturbed by the recklessness of the author to drag the important things till the end pages till I reached the climax. I had qualms when I picked this book but I am okay now that the story is a little different. I got this new word from this book - reticent. I fed it to my memory almost immediately as I would be using it regularly when I want to describe myself. Irony.
