My Review:
We say love is unpredictable. It happens unknowingly without telling us. But is it that way..?? Doesn't love come to our life telling us about it and we ignore it taking the person for granted.
So here I am once again to give my views on Finding Juliet by Toffee. The first page of the book says that this book is dedicated to all the romeos. This is aptly said by the author. This book is for all the lovers out there who some way or the other do not convey their feelings and have gone through turmoil of emotions and have been used by the person they love so much....or do they really love them about whom they crib about so much or is it just infatuation. To be true, god knows what goes into the mind of all the "Romeos" out there and whether they will succeed in finding their Juliet. However to find out whether Arjun finds out his Juliet or not, you need to read this beautiful and well-crafted novel by Taufeeq Ahmed.
Arjun, the main protagonist of the story is a very nice guy who is just careless about everything and realizes the importance of things once they are gone. He fall for several girls in his college in Hyderabad. However every time he is dispirited by the games played by girls and fate.. But during the last days of his college, something happens that gives him the scariest news of his life.( I am not going to disclose that....). Life gets more terrible for him. Soon after the incident, he moves to Bangalore on pursuance of Anjali and joins a Company. He meets a lot of people there who changes his life specially Krish who comes to his rescue to bring him out depression. However one day, Krish informs him that he is moving to USA and tell him something that changes the way in which Arjun was living his life.
Who was Anjali and Krish?
What was Scariest news that Arjun gets in his last college days?
How do Anjali and Krish support him in his worst days?
And last but not the least,
Will Arjun find his Juliet?
Read this roller-coaster of love, dejection, sex, and finding of a true soul which a person always needs around him/her to find all the answers.
Finding Juliet is a normal story which all of us (especially boys) can relate to. It was a one go read and I think one will never get bored of the plot. However I found the end predictable which was something that I wasn't expecting.
The characterization is good or I would say the characters were beautifully crafted and all the characters keeps you engaging. There is something about all that you will remember even when you have finished the novel.
I think the genre of this novel should be Erotica instead of Romance for the obvious reasons. Moreover I would like to mention that there is a suspense in the end of this novel which is surely going to make everyone cry. This is the best part that I found in the novel.
Overall a good read full of unconditional love, emotions, friendship and sex.
