I don't think I am qualified to do a book review, but lemme just put a few words on one book I picked with great expectations - Chetan Bhagat's latest - One night @ the Call Center. I had to fight with my roomie Rajeev to grab it before he lent it to someone else. Sadly... you know what, it was not worth the fight !!
Hooo.. I don’t believe I finished it...... More than half the book is crammed with silly talks, boring events, lots 'n lots of America bashing. I found it dull and uninspiring to move forward. The author would always argue for the contextual build up before the climax, but when you see that 240 out of a 260 page book is crap, it’s imaginable. In stark contrast with his first book - Five Point Someone, which was so close to heart and so natural, this one falls way behind.
In spite of all this, the book like its predecessor doesn't fail to deliver a message; a message for the country's youth through the voice of "GOD".
