BOOK REVIEW- “JUST KIDDING... YOURS, DESTINY BY ANIRBAN DAS”
A very interesting story, which once again makes you believe
that destiny, is the great master to make us learn...
This is the debut novel by Anirban Das’s debut novel ‘Just kidding…Yours, Destiny’ it
portrays the urban lifestyle of where characters seem quite believable just
like in our day to day lives. The story is about Kunal, who is in his late
thirties, been divorced two years back, working in a real estate company has a
great career ahead. Kunal’s boring life
chances when Shristi walks in his life as whiff of fresh air. Being with her
brings positive changes in Kunal’s life. However due to his professional
commitments he has to deal with some nasty land dealers.
The
initial gruesome equation between Kunal and his boss Harry is something which
all lived or faced some or the other time in our life so it helps readers to
connect well. Chapter where author has mentioned about his college trip, his
hunt for ideal life partner, his conversation with his cell mate in jail are
narrated really well.
Towards the end story gradually turns
into heart-rending love story, but there again author has something else to
offer. Kunal’s various suicidal episodes and then his hit back on life in full
spirits by winning dance completion is something very well mentioned, the
climax was quite interesting with twists and turns. To unfold the same you need to
read this book.
Now my Positive viewpoints:
The concept of the story is really something
new and absorbing. This is a great achievement by the author
for writing such a beautiful work of fiction. Even the climax of the story has
been scripted well and leaves the readers for looking forward towards the
sequel.
Some suggestive points:
Overall the book is good and very well expressed. However
at some places the narration becomes to descriptive like initial chapter has
too much of description about marketing strategy and other corporate stuff,
similarly the mention of baba ji and bollywood tactics, could have been cut
short by few. (Just a suggestion)
Final words:
Overall if asked I would say...this
is a fabulous job done by Author (Anirban Das) … I would give 4 stars
to this book.
