"The book is amazingly lucid, you breeze through it, till you realise you have finished it. The language used is highly visual... one can almost picture the characters and the story clearly, in fact I would love to see it as a movie. Great attempt for a first timer, way better grasp on the plot in terms of narration than the other new age writers. Way to go..."

"I had already started reading "A Thousand Speldid Suns"while I picked this up, and I could not put it down until I finished it. Its a gripping, lean and fast paced book and the dialogues are crisp and engaging. I personally like light reading and would rate this page turner a notch above "Five Point Someone". Its definitely in the same league."

"Never knew girls can be so damn silly, but reading the book I realised that we girls can really drive a man crazy without any valid reason... being an avid reader, after a very long time I came across a piece that was entertaining and refreshing at the same time... To the book."

"Oh Boy! What a book... That’s exactly what I said when I was done reading it. I have read Hitesha’s blog so ideally it shouldn’t have come as a surprise, but it did... She has clearly outdone herself.
I simply love the way she takes us through Akki's journey. I know it’s a guy’s story but I could just totally relate to it. I felt like I am "IN" the story, living every moment with Akki... taking me through so many emotions. I smiled, I laughed, I almost cried, things tugged on my heart and I almost suffered heartbreak every time Akki was going through one.
Its fiction, and it still felt so close to life... the uncertainty of life, the achy-breaky heart full of optimism, and not just that, how everything we plan almost never happens and how it cantake a totally different direction sometimes. I just simply love the way Akki's story progresses from one relationship to another and how Hitesha takes us through his wedding-to-be.
And guess in which section of my library this book goes to - "Once you pop you can’t stop"... Really! If you ask me to say something about the book in just two words, I'd say - fresh and frothy (considering that I am a coffee loverJ)
Best of Luck Hitesha; hope to see many more books written by you, and hopefully a real romantic story too, soon!"

"...really nice.. reminds me of myself he he.. it really (is) a marvellous piece of writing. really like the way (the author) instinctively varies sentence lengths for variety, and use(s) flash back to keep the ball rolling right till the end.. considering young men get dumped all the time, (one) can expect a huge response (to this book)..."

"A compelling one time must read. Delights the reader as one can't help but fall into the tempting trap of relating to the journey this bright young author undertakes, as she twines you with every man/woman aspiration towards their tryst to cling to nuptial bliss.
While reading it at times I was tickled with joy, and at times couldn't help but blush at the trivialities relationships imply.
At times I gaped at the effusive romance missing in my own life and finally dropped a jaw in awe at the exciting suspense filled thrilling end; feeling cheated that I had to keep the book down because I had finished it."
