I wish I could give 0 stars. Do not fall for the marketing gimmicks like I did. This book was all over social media and Bookstagram, but buying it was the worst decision I’ve made in the last decade. I can’t recall ever feeling this much regret after spending money on a book. The writing is extremely amateur. Utterly nonsense. It feels like the author doesn’t know the basics of how to construct a sentence or explain simple emotions. It is full of gibberish and grammatical errors, and the language feels more like a WhatsApp chat than a novel. While I know this is a debut by a young author, the flaws are just too hard to ignore. I am only five pages into it, and the way intimacy is described honestly makes me feel like puking. The mix of English and Hindi is jarring, and it’s clear no proper proofreading was done. A novel should tell a story, not leave the reader trying to decode nonsense. It is heartbreaking that this passes for popular fiction while genuine Indian writers who actually craft meaningful stories are overlooked. If you are an avid reader, stay away or your brain might explode. If you are new to reading, please don’t start here or you will end up hating books forever. For the love of God, avoid this one.

I went into this book with high expectations due to the amount of praise it has received online, but unfortunately, it did not work for me. When I read fiction, I look for a narrative that feels intentional and immersive—one that allows the story to unfold naturally rather than feeling loosely assembled. This book fell short of that expectation.
As I progressed, I found the writing increasingly difficult to engage with. Much of the dialogue came across as snobbish or childish, and it often felt unnatural rather than serving the story. I mean, what kind of writing is this, “Every morning she tried cleaning her intestine, but the efforts were useless. …”. I am at loss of words.
In addition, the narrative was frequently weighed down by unnecessary details that disrupted the pacing instead of enriching the world or characters. These issues made it difficult to stay invested.
While the author is young and clearly passionate, age alone does not account for the lack of narrative polish, especially when many authors at a similar stage demonstrate a stronger command of dialogue, structure, and restraint. Ultimately, this was not a book I could continue or recommend. It became my first DNF of 2026, which is why I am giving it one star (because that’s the least you can give on Goodreads).

Very bad. After seeing this book all over Instagram, i thought to give it a go but it was bad! I could not stop rolling my eyes through the chapters.

Too much hype online for this shit. You will not get any emotions while reading this book. Main reason the book got this hype is because author used a paid PR team to promote this book online.
And seriously, why there is a lot of Hindi content in a English version of book? Did he really thought everyone in the world knows Hindi or wrote this only to sell it to readers who know Hindi? Wow! Such an immature and senseless author.
Screw you Sagar #€#€#

Honestly I did not like it. The language of the book is like whatsapp chats. Maybe GenZ or college students may like this book as it has all that kind of material which the teenagers would like. I really couldn't resonate with the book much but first time readers may find this book good.

I don't know where to start. It's so filmy, the scenes and the narrative ends abruptly. poor choice of words that doesn't suit, explain, or be precise to the scene, situation or the writing. Many repeative phrases and very less metaphors used. Grammar errors like a ton of them, punctuation were so off, it makes me think the author has no clue how to use punctuation. Tense! tenses were gone for a toss. Letter casing throughout the book were so incorrectly used. Not just part of the book, but the entire book. It felt like reading a kid narrate a story from its memory of a movie from a year ago.
There is so much room for improvement. like huge huge HUGE area for improvement. Towards the end of the story feel like there is no story. Just randomly characters go somewhere, do somthing and talk somthing. The essence of writing is missing. The love of need for producing a story is no where to be seen. There is no character development or improvements or growth. With writing structure, conversation format, explaining the scene, scenario, getting the character feeling and making the reader feel it. there is much more.
If i have to say with the context of the book, the author was only focused on impressing his samaj. Telling his samaj, that the author can write in english and use big words which might not have context or relation to the scene. There is pretty much nothing else in the book.

This book was a gift from a family member solely based on the amount of publicity it got. Unfortunately, it was a terrible read. Very poorly written in structure, grammar and flow. I just don't get why certain words suddenly start with an upper case. Let's not get into the story itself that doesn't make sense and has so many plot holes.
Another reader commented that is sad that this author is being applauded for his work while so many good Indian writers remain sidelined. I have to agree.

I've read this book a couple of years ago and loved it like anything and then after 2 years I re- read this again and loved it even more.
Not even once, this book gave me a vibe that this is the author's debut novel. The writing was impeccable and nuanced.
The writer definitely knew what he was bringing on to the paper and never it felt like the story was stretched..It was just to the point and perfect.
I fell in love with the characters..felt their friendship..this book is not just your regular love story but reflects light on many aspects like Love, Trust, Friendship, Travel and most importantly many social issues that we witness every single day were very subtly put into the story and it all makes it worth the read

A simple yet heartfelt story about four people and their intertwined journey through love, friendship, and healing. The short chapters made it a fast-paced read, but I took my time to savour every moment. I loved how Sai found her spark to start a travel company after visiting Hampi, and how Sagar’s genuine bond with his friends truly reflected the title. The twist with Harsh’s manipulative father and the Bollywood-style groom kidnapping kept me hooked till the end. A warm, easygoing story that feels like a friend narrating it right to your heart.

It’s a 3.75 for me.... the story feels like a movie, with emotions flowing naturally and moments that stay with you. Sagar’s writing has a simple yet cinematic charm. It’s heartfelt, relatable, and quietly beautiful.

Not bad for a debut author, but the story felt like pure Bollywood drama. Too many Hindi lines for a wider audience, and South India was portrayed in a very stereotypical way. The plot was predictable, and the emotions didn’t really connect with me. Overall, more drama than love

Not at all worth reading. It wasted two hours or my life. First chapter and I knew it has a lack of many things. No proper storyline, no style of writing, no development of the characters nor the building up of the sequences and the sentences. It was as if someone has written a child book and it has not been checked. I dont understand what the hype was? Best marketing and worst writing. Author, I understand, it being your debut novel, you would have expected a lot of mistakes, but even I wrote my first novel far better than it. Please do try to give more attention to your second novel, if any.
I definitely fall for the title of the book and expected something resembling it, but not a single sentence or chapter justified it.
A big disappointment!!

I picked up this book because of the hype on social media.
While I understand this is written by a young author and that it is their debut, the flaws are hard to ignore. The narration feels weak, the story lacks solidity, the flow is broken, and the emotional depth is missing.
What bothered me most is the way intimacy is written. Whenever the author tries to express closeness between the partners, the choice of language simply does not work. Not everything has to revolve around making out. Even if intimacy is central to the story, it can be expressed with sensitivity and restraint. Here, it often comes across as crude rather than sensual.
I also could not understand why there are so many characters with no proper arc or closure. It either feels unnecessary or like forced suspense without any payoff.
On top of this, there is a clear lack of continuity and proper proofreading. This kind of careless writing style completely puts me off as a reader.
I genuinely wish I could give this book zero stars.

Definitely not a great book. Lacks the very basic structure and language to keep a reader engaged and motivated to continue further. There is nothing new to look forward to in this book.
The author clearly cannot handle any criticism, as the moment you give any feedback he takes off the comment on his Instagram page. It is definitely not worth the hype it created on the social media platforms.
Will definitely not recommend this book.

**Rating: 3.5 ⭐**
This was a good, easy read for me.
The writing is simple and the chapters are short, so it feels fresh and smooth. I never felt stuck while reading it. It actually feels like you’re sitting with a friend and they’re telling you their story—sometimes even like gossip, but in a very relatable way.
One thing I noticed early on is the pattern in writing—every chapter starts with a quote. I think it was intentional to set the tone, but after a point, it felt a bit repetitive.
I really connected with Malar’s character. Her insecurities, her trauma, and even small things like feeling anxious before going to the gym felt very real to me. That part hit personally. Also, the way the author has written the thoughts of the characters—especially around love and overthinking—is actually very relatable.
The chemistry between Harsh and Malar is intense and written beautifully. Their moments together, especially their first kiss, were really well done. At one point, I was completely hooked on the story. At the same time, the intensity between Sagar and Sai was also very strong.
I also liked how the terrace was called the “hero” of the story. Later, it made sense—it’s where everyone met, where friendships started, and where so many important moments happened. That was a nice touch.
There are also some strong themes in the book. The whole idea of not judging someone based on their looks really stood out to me. People comment so easily on weight or appearance without knowing anything about someone’s life, and I liked that this was addressed.
But I do have quite a few issues with the book.
Some dialogues are very cheesy, and there are sentences that feel unnecessary. The word “samaj” is used so many times that at one point I felt like I could turn it into a drinking game. I understand it was intentional, but it became too repetitive.
Also, some parts of the story frustrated me a lot. The whole “samaj vs love” conflict felt real, but the way characters handled situations didn’t always make sense. Harsh hiding his engagement from Malar really didn’t sit right with me. No matter how good their chemistry was, that felt unfair—he was basically hurting two people.
At some points, the drama felt more important than logic.
Overall, this book gave me strong Channel V / college drama vibes—emotional, dramatic, a little over-the-top, but still engaging and easy to read.
I would say this is a good book for people in their 20s. It talks about love, friendship, societal pressure, and also highlights how important experiences like travel and friendships are in shaping your life.
It’s not a very deep or perfectly written book, but it’s relatable, engaging, and something you can finish quickly.

We Are There For Each Other is the kind of book that quietly settles into your heart and lingers long after the final page. At its core, it isn’t just a story, it’s an exploration of human connection in its most honest form. It reminds you that the relationships we build, whether planned or purely accidental, often shape us in ways we don’t immediately recognize.
What stands out is how naturally the narrative unfolds. The emotions don’t feel forced or overly dramatic; instead, they mirror real-life conversations, pauses, and unspoken understandings between people who truly care for one another. The story beautifully captures the essence of companionship the kind where presence matters more than promises, and actions speak louder than words.
There’s also a quiet depth in how the book portrays growth. Each character seems to be navigating their own internal battles, learning, unlearning, and evolving through the support they receive. It gently highlights how the right people don’t fix your life for you they stand beside you while you figure it out yourself.
Another striking aspect is how the setting blends into the emotional journey. The places in the story don’t demand attention, yet they become meaningful simply because of the memories created within them. It subtly reinforces the idea that significance isn’t tied to grandeur, but to the experiences we share.
The pacing keeps you engaged without overwhelming you, and the emotional moments arrive in a way that feels earned. There’s a sincerity in the storytelling that makes it easy to get lost in, almost like being part of the journey rather than just observing it.
Ultimately, this book is a reminder of something simple yet profound: life is unpredictable, people are imperfect, and moments are fleeting but showing up for each other is what gives everything meaning. It’s a warm, reflective read that feels both comforting and quietly transformative, leaving you with a renewed appreciation for the people in your life.

We Are There for Each Other is a simple, feel-good story about four friends, a trip, and the realizations that come along the way. While the trip is an important part of the book, the story doesn’t just focus on travel — it also explores life before the trip and how things change during it.
The book feels very much like a movie — especially a South Indian friendship-and-love story. There are moments of action, emotions, nostalgia, friendships, relationships, breakups, and self-reflection. You don’t really have to think too deeply while reading; you just go along with the flow and experience the journey.
What stood out to me is how relatable the story feels. Many situations mirror real life — friendships among a group, expectations from love and relationships, dealing with breakups, coping with changes, and even personal insecurities. One particular aspect that felt very real was how a character struggles with health and body-related insecurities, and how that affects self-worth. Those moments hit close to home because they reflect how many of us compare ourselves to others and feel inferior at times.
The friendship dynamic, trips with friends, and observing life from different perspectives bring a lot of nostalgia. While reading, I kept remembering my own trips, moments with friends, and personal experiences — and that emotional familiarity is where this book works best.
That said, this is a normal, routine story. It doesn’t try to be extraordinary or deeply complex, and it succeeds as a light, comforting read. I wouldn’t say I loved it, and I don’t see myself returning to it again — but I did enjoy the journey while it lasted.
Overall, it’s a feel-good, relatable, easy read. Not unforgettable, not bad — just a warm, nostalgic experience you enjoy once and move on from.

Story starts with Malar and Sagar, who are born in the same building. As friends Malar and Sagar always met once in a week on the terrace, that was their meeting place where they shared, they week updates and spent time with each other.
One day Sagar’s another childhood friend is invited to their usual meeting place, Malar and Harsh connect instantaneously. While Harsh has his share of love failures, Malar had hers so they both understandably do not express. Malar starts gym with Harsh, on the request of Sagar, to keep herself healthy.
On another day, Sagar runs into Sai, a girl who moved into their building a few days back, when he reaches the terrace early for their usual weekly catch up. Sagar likes Sai and introduces her to Malar and Harsh. All four instantly become good friends.
Sai plans for a Hampi trip and all four friends went on for the trip. Here life turns heaves and hell, for all the friends. To know read the book, I liked the narrative of the book and the characterization. One of the lines I liked in the book is, “That’s what Love does to us. Either it destroys us entirely or gives us a purpose in life. “
My take on this book, for sure when you start taking your life into your hands, you meet the right people, talk the right things to them and you get all the courage in the world you needed. Just that you need to be strong and stand for yourself. I did like the friendship between Sagar and Malar, Sai is a sweet character with clarity on what she wants but Khushboo is a dynamite, she is like the special appearance Super Star who comes shines and goes. Amid all the movie masala of the book, it was Khusboo who turns the tables. She is the MAN of the BOOK.
This is a simple romantic book and for many is a quicker read than me. Worth reading it and best wishes to the author.

What a pure wholesome read!
This book honestly feels like one of those long, late-night conversations you have with your friends - full of emotions, little realizations, and moments that just stay with you. The road trip setting makes it even better, because it’s not just about the places they go, but everything they go through together. The friendships feel real, messy, and comforting at the same time, and the love story slowly unfolds in a very natural way.
What I really liked is how it doesn’t try too hard to be dramatic, yet still makes you feel a lot. It’s about showing up for each other, even when things get complicated, and that idea stays with you after you’re done reading. Overall, it’s a warm, emotional read that feels simple but meaningful - perfect when you want something that feels a little like home.
I got some wonderful lessons from this read. While I wait for BTS's next album Arirang, I realise that although it doesn't always seem so, but life always opens a door after closing one. It may not be the one that you want, but it is ALWAYS something better than you had originally hoped for. Just like how Sagar and Malar worked through things, never losing hope, I hope I swim through the waves of life, no matter how difficult it seems.
I had an awesome Thursday reading this book 🍷

The friendships feel real, messy, and comforting at the same time, and the love story slowly unfolds in a very natural way.
What I really liked is how it doesn’t try too hard to be dramatic, yet still makes you feel a lot. It’s about showing up for each other, even when things get complicated, and that idea stays with you after you’re done reading. Overall, it’s a warm, emotional read that feels simple but meaningful - perfect when you want something that feels a little like home.
I got some wonderful lessons from this read. While I wait for BTS's next album Arirang, I realise that although it doesn't always seem so, but life always opens a door after closing one. It may not be the one that you want, but it is ALWAYS something better than you had originally hoped for. Just like how Sagar and Malar worked through things, never losing hope, I hope I swim through the waves of life, no matter how difficult it seems.
I had an awesome Thursday reading this book 🍷

At first glance, We Are There For Each Other might seem like a classic “friends to lovers” story, but it’s far more than that. The emotional depth shared between Sagar and Malar is honest, heartfelt, and beautifully flawed. Their relationship isn’t about grand gestures—it’s about being present, being patient, and being real.
What really touched me was how authentically Malar’s mood swings and emotional turmoil were portrayed. As a woman, I could deeply relate to the rawness that hormone imbalances can bring. Sagar’s quiet presence and steady support made their bond even more special. And yet, even though they understood each other, the pain they felt in the moments they needed each other the most was heartbreakingly real.
The connections with Sai and Harsh added warmth and depth, showing that love isn’t the only emotion worth exploring—some friendships and feelings exist just to be felt, not labeled.
This book felt like a soft, emotional movie. It reminds us that being there for someone isn't always perfect, but it’s always meaningful.
A beautifully emotional tale that lingers like a warm afterthought. A must-read for those who crave emotionally grounded, feel-good fiction.

A Cinematic Masterpiece!
It is rare to find a book that feels both grand and intimate at the same time. For a beginner writer, what has been achieved here is truly larger than life.
What I Loved:

The Pacing: There is a great balance in telling the story. The author knows exactly when to speed up the action and when to let the emotional moments breathe.
The Characters: This was the highlight for me. Absolutely all the characters are equally treated and elevated. They are so well-written that these characters will stay with us for some time.
The Writing: Beyond the plot, the quotes are also good. There are so many beautiful, meaningful lines that I found myself highlighting as I read.
The Vibe:
The entire reading experience was heartful and deeply moving. The imagery is so vivid and the stakes are so high that the story felt nothing short of a movie playing in my head.
Bottom Line: An incredible debut that feels like the work of a seasoned pro. High quality from start to finish!

The story starts with an erotic touch, which honestly hooks me right away and made me want to keep going. The writing is super simple and beginner-friendly, so I’d definitely recommend it to people who are new to reading books.
Everything went well and keeping in mind that this is fiction. You nailed it bro, I saw and felt every emotion that you wrote for your characters.
A few small cons: Sagar Chudesara
The narrator felt a bit thin, a guiding voice could’ve helped it win.
After romantic and erotic scenes, fillers appeared more and I dont remember them atleast.
The climax felt rushed and Bollywood-inspired, not bad, just slightly misfired. Also, felt bad for Priya..!! but yeah, fate arghhh.
Final thought:
A good starter romance with an engaging beginning and easy language. Could’ve been tighter near the end, but still worth reading.

I recently finished reading **We Are There for Each Other by Sagar Chudesara in one sitting, and it was truly an engaging experience. The story revolves around four main characters, each with their own personality, struggles, and emotional depth. What makes this book special is how naturally their lives connect and how their friendships evolve through different situations. Every character feels real and relatable, which makes it easy for readers to emotionally connect with them. The writing style is simple yet powerful, allowing the story to flow smoothly from beginning to end. While reading, it genuinely felt like I was watching a movie in my mind, with vivid scenes and emotional moments unfolding page by page. The author beautifully captures themes of friendship, support, and human connection. Overall, it is a heartwarming and enjoyable read that reminds us how important it is to have people in our lives who stand by us through everything.

We Are There For Each Other: An Intense Love Story of 4 Friends on a Road Trip of a Lifetime comes across as a simple road trip story at first, but it slowly unfolds into something much more emotional and reflective. It focuses on four friends dealing with their own struggles while trying to hold on to each other.
One line that stands out is, “Problems don't start when you see darkness. But it starts when you begin to see darkness even when there is light around.” It captures the tone of the story really well how internal battles can quietly take over even in moments that seem fine from the outside.
The Hampi setting adds a calm, almost symbolic backdrop to everything that’s happening emotionally. The friendships are portrayed in a grounded way, showing how being present, even in small moments, can matter more than anything else.
Overall, it feels like a quiet, emotional read that leans more on connection and presence than dramatic storytelling.

For me the book ranges from 3.5 - 4 on the scale of 5 start rating. This is mainly because there are parts which are unclear. Although, the storyline, the character buildup, the detailing, explanations and emotions building through words is great 10/10 for that but at many instances things went up and down with unclear about the base and somethings felt unconnected when turned the page for next chapter. The story narrative is done is a great manner, loved the way but POVs could have been mentioned at the start of the Chapter to get a clarity which chapter belongs to which character. Yet, I feel @Sagar Chudesara you have done a great job, would love to read ahead your writings, as they are simple, loving, and completely relatable to desi bollywood movie lovers....

In the beginning I felt disconnected and stopped reading the book after 10 pages because it’s not that engaging but I want to give it a try so I started on 14th of this month and I read 130 pages in the first day itself. I’m not a great reader, but when I started from the beginning, it felt like okay, it’s decent after 10 page while reading it, so I can continue it and the end is satisfied, but the structure needs to be more improved and in the beginning of the story, few points are like that couldn’t happen. The story couldn’t be narrated. So during that point of time, I didn’t understand what author is trying to say, but anyway, it was good book. The story was decent and you can give it a try.

Title and front page attarcted me and I purchased. But I did not have any expectations as its a debue novel.But when I started reading I just can't resist myself to stop reading, though I have other stuffs to do. I have finished this book just in 3 days in my busy schedule.
Its an amazing book. I never lived in an apartment. I never had friends like Malar, Harsh ,Sagar Devika etc. But still I was there in that story. Beacause you had written this story in that beautiful way. Some warm feeling, motivational,I m not able to describe that feel good things by words. I really enjoyed. Its simply super. I recommend this to everybody who is in search of feel good books.
