Five Point Someone

Have read this novel 'Five point Someone' that has been pending for a long long time now. Not because I didn't find time, but because in spite of my numerous efforts, I couldn't find the book in any of the libraries here. I hate it when I don't find popular books in libraries, it's like not finding Mickey mouse in Disney, or probably, I was looking for an Appu in Dinsney :D

Anyways, I finally got to read this book and it was worth all the toil. IIT and IIM have always been those dreams that keep you awake! The mere fact that the book is from an IIT IIM graduate gave me outrageous happiness. Being a person who failed to crack 'CAT', I was always fascinated in meeting people who made is as easy as cracking a nut. (You can imagine how happy I might be marrying one :))

Even though Vijay 'enlightened' me with his life at IIM, reading about it had an impact of its own. It was irresistible to even take a break! The story, the IIT life, the courses, the terminology, the GPA's everything kept me glued to the book. And the ultimate stunner is, it being true story of the author himself.

I enjoyed reading this book and it is a refreshing change from my usual wrestle with clock.
