Book: Finding Juliet
Author: Toffee
Publisher: Srishti Publishers
Finding Juliet by Toffee is a
story about Arjun’s transformation from sweet and simple guy to the womanizer. The
sole purpose of the protagonist’s existence is finding true love and it turns
out that he manages to do a PH.D in how to fail in any relationship.
“Can a Geek ever find love?”
is what essentially the book about. The geeky Arjun starts as a bichara innocent little boy who has been
having hard luck when it comes to love and relationships.
This nice guy can’t seem to be
able to decode the key to women’s complex mind and ever confused heart. His tryst
with women began early, however it’s only when he gets a guru in form of a
close confidante Krish, he learns how to win over women; nevertheless this
quest takes him away from his original purpose of finding true love.
It is no rocket science to
understand that Arjun is supposed to fell for or rather realize his love for
his childhood friend Anjali and his quest will see a happy ending. It’s
predictable! However, what is interesting to see is how he gets there; how does
the realization of true love dawns on him.
The story also portrays
several relationship elements youth today go through - attraction, lust, friendship
with benefits, casual sex, no- string relations then there’s also some love-at-first
sight, love, trust, honesty, bromance among others.
The author’s writing style is
fluid and nowhere did the plot felt boring. The cover is interesting and tells
you that you are in for a quick and fun read. Overall it is a simple read,
nothing to gain or nothing to lose.
I received a copy from
Writersmelon in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.
