 - The Girl In Room 105

- By Chetan Bhagat

Genre - Fiction, Mystery, Thriller, Crime

Rating - 3/5

Pages - 534




Indian readers enjoy a love-hate relationship with Chetan Bhagat. We love him & we hate him. He is probably India’s most trolled writer and yet his books have also managed to become the highest grosser every time. The book boasts of a fresh storyline and a decent effort in terms of plot and plot twists. Mystery and entertainment also don’t come far behind. As is quite obvious from the blurb, The Girl in Room 105 is a story of a love gone wrong but not in a cliche way. The book is basically a crime mystery in the garb of a romantic drama. Surely, there is a bit of both (romance and drama) but the suspense overpowers them in a big way.

Keshav Rajpurohit is an IIT pass-out who, much to the chagrin of his proud family members, is teaching in a JEE coaching center in Delhi. He is still in love with his ex-girlfriend, the beautiful Kashmiri Muslim, Zara – who broke up with him 4 years ago. Ever since then, Keshav has been pining for her love despite every practical advice against it.

What seems like an ordinary unsuccessful love story, turns into something different altogether when one day, on the eve of her birthday, Zara messages Keshav out of the blue. Drunk, and already in half his wits, he readily agrees to meet her by sneaking into her hostel room (room no 105) in the dead of the night, just like he used to do years ago when they were still dating. This one mistake changes his life forever. Unknowingly he does what he should never have done. Now, he is caught in a whirlwind of events and it doesn’t seem that there is a way out. 

I personally didn't like it. it was all a marketing gimmick for me. I didn't get the message of Chetan Bhagat that he had to convey. There is a misinterpretation of unlove. And clearly, I didn't understand the meaning of unlove. I don't want to give any spoilers to the readers. But skip the book if you don't like chetan bhagat or Bollywood-cliche type of plots. And it is for sure a one-time read. So I would suggest not investing in this book, just investing in more thrilling books like the silent patient and many more. I have reviewed it for you. Here is the link to it.

A Thousand Splendid Suns - By Khalid Hosseni

A Thousand Splendid Suns - By Khalid Hosseini Genre - Fictional, Historical, Classic Rating - 5/5 Pages - 372 A book that ripped the hearts of almost many readers including me. This book gives us the feeling of gratitude, family, love, affection, feminism, and a lot more. It is beautifully written by the author Khaled Hosseini. He is indeed a storyteller.  Khaled Hosseini born March 4, 1965, is an Afghan-American novelist, UNHCR goodwill ambassador, and former physician. His debut novel The Kite Runner (2003) was a critical and commercial success; the book and his subsequent novels have all been at least partially set in Afghanistan and have featured an Afghan as the protagonist. He unfolds the story very well. Here is a glimpse of the book as a summary. A Thousand Splendid Suns is set in Afghanistan from the early 1960s to the early 2000s. Mariam, a young girl in the 1960s, grows up outside Herat, a small city in Afghanistan. Mariam has complicated feelings about her parents: She ...

Wattpad New Stories

Wattpad New Stories So, Hi Guys!! I'm back. I am so grateful for the response that you guys gave to my last post i.e. Wattpad must-reads. And even the author of one of the books also commented. I was on cloud nine on that day. So I thought to make it a series for you guys to get an ultimate guide on Wattpad.

I want to encourage the authors as well as it is not the cakewalk to write a story. So here are my top recommendations which I love. 1. Universe of Dreams First has to be this. I love it so much and the author is making all the readers blush so much that I can't explain. The story, plot, characters, and language everything is just falling into the right place. I added this in my previous blog as well. Here is the review from the previous blog. This is my first Wattpad story which I have read. I actually as mentioned before saw it in a reel and the commen...
