Book Review:
From a long time, I was looking for a book based on the path of self-discovery. ‘That Thing About You’ by the author Abhaidev is an uncommon story of a common man rejected in love. The protagonist of the story is Subodh, a regular IT employee. Everyone thinks Subodh as an immature man but he didn’t care at all. He got bothered when his love rejected him for same reason. He always stays confused about everything.
One day he went on team outing. He found a new friend that has answers for everything. His new friend is like a ray of hope. Read the story to know who this new friend is? How this friend changed Subodh’s life?
The narration of the story is amazing. The characters are well developed. The language of the book is lucid thereby making it easier to understand. The plot of the story is unique. By looking at the cover, one would think that it is a love story but it is not exactly that. It slowly makes sense towards the end what it actually means. An interesting story to read.
