No More No Less

No More No Less

Book Review-
Book Name - No More No less
Author - Alisha Nandeshwar


When the sassy Pari meets the arrogant Sameer, it is impossible for them to avoid the sparks of love that flare between them like a forest fire, but falling in love is easy. It is staying in love that's like a rollercoaster ride- all full of ups and downs and a whole cocktail of twists and turns. As if that wasnt enough, there is always destiny ready to make thing worse. And sometimes it has nothing to do with destiny. so while Sameer and Pari are busy writing the chapters of their perfect love story, fate intervenes in the most terrible way and now they don't know if they would make it to their "Happily Ever After" unsacthed.

From a debutant author, what do you expect? Yes, i also did not have much expectations. But this girl just blew my mind. It does not seemed like she is writing her first book. It was like she is already a professional. Some authors write love stories, some live them. Alisha has written to express, and not to impress.
3 friends Pari, Riya and Avinash seems life in a different way. Pari is a dreamy girl who believes her prince charming will sweep her off the feet. She wishes to settle for nothing less than that.
Riya also has the same thought process. Avinash is a guy who's handsome, sweet and flirty, he is that guy, girls fall for her and he is the friend everyone wishes to have. He is very protective and caring. They all 3 live like a small bunch of family members.
I loved the fact that each chapter starts with a beautiful quote. Some of the quotes i really loved was -

1) With friendship comes a responsibility. To be able to keep the sweet secrets covered in the veil of acceptance.
2) Love is that delicate little bud, which blossoms in its own sweet time.
3) You can't really expect anyone to agree with you. Some decisions are just too painful to happily accept and move on.
The writing is simple and easy to understand. Language is lucid. Author has left scope for a sequel because the ending is like that. Watch the race between destiny and love. Who wins, who looses ? Keep guessing. Writing is crisp and clear. Back story has played a big part in the book. It keeps you hooked till the end.
