BLURB- This is the story of a person who met a lot of temporary people in his life

If you meet a girl in a new place, be it a college, a coaching centre, a train, an office or any other place, and if you find her beautiful, you will definitely try to approach her. You will, maybe, send her a friend request on Facebook. She might accept your request or she might not. But, one thing is quite definite, that she will visit your profile for sure.

This is us; this is human psychology or just the mentality that we have developed over the years.

It's a story of a person meeting different girls with whom he could have had some chemistry, but there was always some or the other 'but'. He had some good features, but his bad ones outnumbered the good. He did some magic, due to which he was able to change his life. Being overweight for him was among his major tensions. However, he lost 30 kgs of weight in six months, and consequently, the people who used to hate him started liking him. The gym freaks are often considered as dumb and writers are often considered as genius. He acted of being both.

REVIEW- This is the debut novel by Ashutosh Srivastava and as a debutant author has done quiet good job. Author has brilliant narrating skills which makes the book page turning.

Book Title and Cover- Book Title is suitable to the storyline and so is the Book Cover. Book Title is catchy which gains the attention of the readers.

Language- Language is simple and  easily understandable but attractive. Even the new readers can find the book easy to read.

Narration- To be honest, i read the book in one go because of the narration. Author has amazing narrating skills which hooked me till the end. Some one liners are given, which were making book interesting.

Storyline and Plot- Storyline and Plot is strong. It is the journey of Rudra, the main character from childhood to his graduation and becoming a writer and how he remained single all this time.
Author has penned down some brilliant things which we all have experienced and this makes reading interesting.

There are  fewer technical problems which are very minor and can be ignored. Few more one liners would make the story more interesting.
Also author has added 2 chapters which can inspire you to do what you love and to do what you think you cannot do.
