Reality Bites - Review

Author: Anurag Anand

The story starts with the protagonist Atul’s first day of engineering. He is very happy to get admission in the same college where Swati joined, the DELHI COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING. He meets her on the first day and then the story goes to 2 years back when Atul joins as a hostler in the 11^th class where he meets Senti alias Santosh, Bengali alias Anirban  and Swati . 

      Atul gets into relation with his classmate Ayesha who later dumps him for Manav. This leads to fight between Atul and Manav, which settles in the end. Though Atul used to hate Swati during the initial days she likes him n used to care a lot about him, even saves him once when Manav plans an attack on him. 

      Slowly the relation between Atul n Swati develops. After 12^th class they both get admission in the same college. On the first day Swati says she likes Atul and he says “I love u too” - THE END.

      

     Neither the incidents that take place in hostel nor between Atul- Ayesha are interesting. Swati has a very little presence in the story, most of it is either Atul n his frds or Atul-Ayesha.

      But the way Anurag narrated the story is worth praising…you will definitely like it. I will surely read his first novel “The Quest For Nothing,” at least for the way he presents the story.

You can finish this buk at one stretch …so if u want to kill couple of hours you can buy this , but don’t expect much from the story.
