Review –
Love
@ Internet
is the second book from the bestselling author of “A Splash of Love”, Rajeev Ranjan.
It is a story of the time when the internet revolution had just begun to take
over the world. The story is about protagonist Rohit Mishra, a studious guy
from a middle class family in Delhi. His family had a dream of him becoming an
engineer. The flat where Rohit used to live has balcony from where love
blossoms without even exchanging a word, romance with his neighbor Tina.
But
due to some reasons her family had to leave the colony. And when she leaves, she
gave Rohit a piece of paper which he happens to lose. Rohit has no idea where
she gone. He starts focusing on his studies and after completing his studies he
lands in Mumbai and became a software engineer. He was very shy in interacting with
girls. So, he registers himself on an online dating site – Mantraonline.com to
find himself a soul mate. A perfect match. Those day internet just had landed
up in India.
Where
it leads him? To get all your answers you better read the book as I don’t want
to be spoiler.
When
I read his last book I had set up high expectations from author. Narration is so
simple that anyone can connect to it. Good English is used. The flow of story
is so smooth that you will never fill leaving it in middle. There are lots of
twists in book. Author has good story telling skills. Emails part is also well
written. I just loved that.
I
didn’t much errors in book as some grammatical mistakes can be ignored as you
will find yourself engaged in book. What I didn’t like in book is cover of
book.
I
would like to rate it 3.5 out of 5. If you love reading love stories you can go
for this. It worth a read. A Light late
night read.
