The blurb says:
Paridhi Mathur, dusky, beautiful, and (determined to be)
single, is doing everything to keep her academic records high and her love life
nil, but lady luck keeps frowning at her. When she meets Abhigyan Ambastha,
rich - devastatingly handsome, intense and sometimes curt, her resolve wavers.
Despite regular warnings from her ever-suspicious heart, she inexplicably gets
attracted towards him. But she would not let him trespass her soul. Why? Is she
scared of mendacious face of love her past has inflicted on her? Can Paridhi
really trust Abhigyan? Will a blissful breeze of love ever kiss her heart? A
heart-warming saga of dreams and desires, We Will Meet Again promises to make
you smile and cry at the same time. Hold on to your hearts before embarking on
this roller coaster ride of emotions!
If I could describe the novel in few words it would be –
light and breezy romantic read. I had downloaded the book on kindle when it was
available for free one fine day and soon forgot about it. After a few days, I
had to take a flight journey with my toddler and luckily my baby boy slept most of
the time during the travel. That’s when I started reading this book (these days
I get to read only when my baby sleeps) and when I was home I utilized every
opportunity to finish the book.
The story is infectious; once you start reading it you feel
the need to know what happens next. I must add here that the story line is not
something out of the box – in fact it is quite predictable and the plot is linear
too. But, there is something about the book that connects it with the readers
instantly. It is the author’s writing style and the characters in the novel
which struck a chord in my heart and made the reading very enjoyable for me. I
strongly have a feeling that the author is inspired by people around her to
build all of them.
One thing that could have been done away with in the book are the typos and editing errors – they can ruin an otherwise good book.
Paridhi is a simple and down-to-earth girl. Her character is
very well sketched by the author. The way her relationship with her father,
sister, her best friend, etc., is portrayed, various shades of her character
bloom. Various incidents throughout the story also bring out the finer details - how protective she feels for her family, how it hurts her self-esteem
when someone not from the family offers her monetary help, etc. However, I was
hoping for a stronger reason in her past which makes her determined to stay
away from Abhigyan.
The character of Abhigyan is like every girl’s dream hero. I
did feel at times that he was too good to be true; such gentlemen are hard to
find. Paridhi’s sister and her best friend Geet are very likable characters. The
story is quite fast paced – lots of things happening and no dull moments. While
it might not work for many – it did work for me as I was looking for a quick, breezy
read. If you are looking for a beautiful romantic story for a journey or a
light ready in between some heavy reads, just go for this one.
Typically, I do not include bio of the authors in my book
reviews. But, since this book is by a fellow blogger I feel inclined to include
it here. You can also check her blog:
