Read FIVEPOINT SOMEONE


FIVEPOINT SOMEONE

By

Chetan Bhagat (IIT,Delhi & IIM Passout)

The book is a critique / statement on the way the so called educational standards are maintained by our premier institutions which kills the creativity of young minds…in the guise of heavy grade system.

Friendship, madness, the illusion of campus portrayed beautifully….I am sure everybody will identify themselves with the characters.

After a very long time, I completed a novel within 2 days with all the other sundry works and errands meaning the book could hold my interest to that extent.

Looks like a good book...I wrote to Chetan a few months back to see if it is available in the US.!!

He asked me to check in the libraries.!!!

I am going to ask my friends who are travelling from chennai to buy this book for me.!!

I believe ( MHO ) that the education system in India has to be revamped totally.!!!
