About the book:
How far would you go in love? A few missed calls? Liking every post of his on FB? Landing in the hospital when you fall from a tree because you wanted to see into his room? Anamika Khanna is madly in love with Rahul… How can someone be so blind? Why can’t she see how much I love her? Will my confession jeopardise our friendship? Vikram Lobo, the bookworm has developed muscles and lost the soda bottle glasses. But he can’t stop his heart from skipping a beat when he sees Anamika. Rahul, the high society Adonis wants nothing to do with the gauche, middle class weirdo who’s following him around. Until she moves into his league… Laugh out loud at Anamika’s antics and follow her on the roller coaster that is her life!
About the author:
Move the pile of books aside and that's where she'll be! She loves reading and it was inevitable that she began to write. She began with poems and for a long time, that was enough. When her poems began to get longer and longer, it was time to move to stories and novels. She lives in Pune, India and is a typical Indian - deeply traditional & obsessively modern. Her idea of heaven is a cup of coffee and a romance novel on a rainy day!
My take:
'Anamika Khanna falls in love' is a quirky romantic comedy about Anamika, girl who stops at nothing to catch the attention of Rahul, her crush. She mistakes the infatuation for true love, and begins moving heaven and earth to get Rahul to notice her. Rahul on the other hand is out of her league and despises this middle-class girl who seems rather obsessed by her. Vikram, her true friend, who has now developed feelings for her tries to make Anamika see that Rahul is not the one for her. Will Anamika get over her obsession and finally reciprocate Vikram's feelings?
The story, though simple, is beautifully narrated. The quirky style of writing makes the reader laugh as we read the antics of Anamika and the heights she goes to to get Rahul to notice her. The simple feelings of love, friendship and dejection are nicely portrayed. Every character is lovable, especially Vikram. The maturity with which he handles the situation is nicely described.
The language is easy and lucid. The book may not be a suspense thriller but it does keep the reader hooked.
The cover page is beautifully designed and apt for the story.
I rate it five stars.
