FIVE POINT SOMEONE Review: Excellent Book!! - I received this book today in the mail and finished it before the end of the day!! Literally in one go!! I have not read a whole book in a while, but this book had this undefinable magic about it, which led me into this 'unstoppable' reading till I reached the end!! It is a story, nicely told, funny, gripping, with its poignant moments which make you reflect, or gulp down a lump or two down your throat. At the same time the characters brought back memories of the 'olden golden' college days which I haD left behind long ago!! The nostalgia was sweet.. so hats off to the author for rekindling old memories!!The narration is nice, plain and simple, and most importantly made me laugh aloud when I read it.

Literally in one go!! I have not read a whole book in a while, but this book had this undefinable magic about it, which led me into this 'unstoppable' reading till I reached the end!! It is a story, nicely told, funny, gripping, with its poignant moments which make you reflect, or gulp down a lump or two down your throat.

I was continuously laughing while reading last night! It took me back to my undergrad days at BITS, Pilani. Point being not just an IITian, I guess any person from a technical education background will "damn" relate to it! (Read the book to understand why damn is quoted! ;)) The language of the book so reminds me of our vocab from those days. Giving short names to courses and profs (hope none of my profs are reading this! ;)) and trying to beat the system from bogging you down with only acads! Chances are if you were a 10-pointer, this book will be a strange area for you..so read at your own discretion! The authors sense of humor is awesome; looking forward to see the same in the rest of his books hopefully. Note to fellow BITSians - Replace ApMech with MechOpts. Major with Compres.
