five point someone?

i read tis book by chetan bhagat..
amazing book.. so simple n v touching.. it clearly proves wat i always belived in life..
at any point in yr life, there s nothin where u cant change anythin.. or plainly there s no dead end in life..
inspite of enjoying da 4 yrs n doin al crap the three guys, ryan , hari n alok get settled in life..
even tho its a dark novel( tat s y i loved it more).. its ending was a contrast..
i loved da book, i shd say.. it was funny n great narrative style.. i saw a lil r.k.narayan style influence.. u know, where he narrates serious stuff humorously.. i loved nehas character,,
a very sweet female who wants to try stuff in life..
esp at a point i was kinda amazed where she asks him 2 get a cigarette..
she says" get me 2! i ve heard it tastes too good after sex".. amazingly cool.. a hindustani girl by heart, but sometimes somethin gets on her..
a very happening book..
two days , da mood of da book kinda set on me.. i felt everythin, da way i felt wen i read da book..
wanna read one night at call center 2..

very true... amazingly simple narration... beautifully picturized romance... and of course, Neha.. ;)

i think anybody who has lived a hostel life can relate to the story very very well.. no wonder its a bestseller!

Yep.. very very true.. made me nostalgic abt IIT.. neways 'One Night @ Call Center' is also good.. his English has improved and he does make the plot interesting throughout and this time there is a Manager Bakshi character who is kinda the bad guy and reminds you of any bad bosses u had at office..

agreed on ur points
being in the same hostel "kumaon" and the same campus makes it more appealing to me. As a matter of fact the main point he puts forward is something we shud not miss "if Not IITian u r nothing" attitude is condemned.
i really loved his story
