A Recent Read

I was getting bored with all the online articles, music, videos and all other online stuff. Then I decided to read books, which I bought and read few pages here and few pages there but didn't finish. I was loosing interest in those books with very first few pages. That is why I think, any author, who wants to be among the best selling authors, should pay extra attention in very first 10-20 pages. These pages can make a reader read the book entirely. Else only critics would be reading that book as they have to write a review of it. A book,no matter what genre it falls into, should grab the attention of audience from the word go, just like any good Hollywood movie.

Why all this rant then? Actually, I had a chance to read a fiction "Dork: The Incredible Adventures of Robin ‘Einstein’ Varghese" by 'Sidin Vadukut' with some other books along side. To tell you the truth I enjoyed the book from the very beginning. If you have heard of IITs, IIMs, know about campus selections in collages , you would be able to identify with the protagonist of this novel. At times, events in the book are so realistic that you may feel that you have seen them happening around you.

The story comes out of a diary, maintained by the hero 'Robin', but it is not a diary , in fact it is a word document, which 'Robin' writes in as he may be writing in a diary. This diary comprises a lot of risible events happened in Robin's life.

I can say you will keep laughing, till the very end of this novel. If you haven't had a chance to get a hand on it then go ahead and buy it. Use either 'flipkart' or indiaplaza.in' as they selling this novel for less.
