Review:
Love.exe...the title of the book seems technical and it surely is! The people from IT industry will be able to relate to this title very easily. As the title suggests, this story is a love story between two tech lovers.
Nitya is a young girl who is in the final year of her engineering course. She gets a fully-funded scholarship from Stanford University. Her parents are a bit skeptical about sending her abroad. They decide to get her married and she could then stay with her husband and complete her course. Nitya who is excited to make a great career learns about this. She initially opposes her parents decision but after meeting Ganapaty, the man her parents have chosen for her, she agrees to marry him. Nitya is happy at the way her life is shaping out only to realize that life has other plans for her. What plans had God written for Nitya? Does she marry Ganapaty, her first love?
To start with, I loved the way the author presented the story. I had written a story on similar lines a few years ago. The flow of events in this story have been really great. It's a simple story devoid of any over-dramatic incidents. I believe that is what makes this story special.
The character, Nitya has been portrayed really well. And so, are other characters. I found them a bit shallow at first (initial chapters) but as the story gained pace, the characters seemed real and relateable.
The story has been narrated in third person narrative. I loved the simple language. There was a personal touch to the narration. It seemed as if I was listening to someone telling me this story.
The only thing that I didn't like about this book is the emotional aspect of the story. It seemed like some parts of the book were flooded with emotions while some others lacked them completely.
Love.exe is a good one-time read.
I rate:
Cover: 2/5
Characters: 3/5
Story: 3.5/5
My overall rating for Love.exe is 3.5/5 stars.
You can purchase your copies of Love.exe on Amazon.
