Book Review No. 3 -
Book Name - The Girl in Room 105
Author - Chetan Bhagat
Publisher- Westland Publications
Pages - 305
The story unfolds:
Main Characters :
1) Keshav Rajpurohit
2) Zara Lone
3) Saurabh
4) Inspector Rana
Now, this one thing is for sure, Chetan Bhagat is India's most trolled writer, yet his books have emerged as bestseller and converted into major motion picture.
This time it will not be different as his latest novel "The Girl in Room 105" has already created enough buzz among the readers and also the trailer release casting Vikrant massy and kashmira Irani have taken youtube buzz.
Expectation : People who got bored of his previous repetetive work can cheer, as this one is slightly different. The genre is changed, shifting from romance to murder-mystery cum thriller.
This book consist of a fresh storyline and a little decent effort in terms of twist. Ofcourse u cannot expect a sherlock or an abbas-mustan twist, but it keeps you engage. This book is basically a crime mystery wrapped with romantic drama flashback. But the suspense grips the readers.
Keshav Rajpurohit is an IIT Passout, who is teaching as an faculty in an IIT Coaching center named "Chandan classes" in delhi. He has a past and still in love with his ex-girlfriend Zara lone. She is from kashmir and a muslim. They broke up 4 years ago due to their parents hindu-muslim war.
The book starts with an ordinary narration but changes quickly when on the eve of zara's birthday, she is found dead in her hostel room no. 105. Zara messages keshav,who is drunk, inviting him to her hostel room no. 105, keshav accepts the invitation and agrees to meet her. He sneaks through the window and finds zara dead on the bed. This one mistake changes his life forever. What unfolds is the series of twist and turn, involving political drama , the hindu-muslim saga, the romantic past, the friendship bond etc.
The one thing i loved about this book is its strong plot.
The overall effect is entertainment, except with few dull moments, the book holds you tight, Does not losses his pace much.
Characters :
There are many characters in this book, as its a murder mystery the characters are defined well. The character development is strong too. Saurabh especially provides you the comic reliefs in between.
What i dont like :
"The Unlove Story" concept. I cannot reveal much as its a mystery plot. Actually the length of the book is little more over 300 pages. It could have been trimmed.
Overall the book is for all chetan bhagat fan's out there.
u can avoid if u r not a chetan bhagat's fan.
My rating for this book is 3.5/5. The extra .5 for trying a new genre.
The book cover looks really good, it goes for a 4/5.
Books available at all leading platforms such as Amazon, Flipkart, Ebook kindle, westland publications.
