2 STATES by Chetan Bhagat book review


What do you expect when you read something like this on the cover page of a novel?
"Love marriages around the world are simple.
Boy Loves Girl... Girl Loves Boy.....They get married.
But in India...
Boy Loves Girl... Girl Loves Boy
 Boy’s Family needs to love Girl..... Girl’s Family needs to love Boy .... 
Boy's Family has to love Girl's Family...Girl's Family has to love Boy's Family.... 
If Boy and Girl still love each other, they get married "
You almost know the story. Its about how a young couple meet, fall in love, parents intially object but later are forced to succumb to the demands of their kids. Finally the marriage takes place, the girl becomes pregnant and the couple lives happily ever after with their own children.
Though the storyline doesn't have many surprise elements, the narration is pretty good. 
You start reading the novel and can’t stop till the end.
Boy is KRISH from Punjab and girl is ANANYA from Tamilnadu. 
Its a story of a not so typical indian marriage. But sure the incidents between Krish and Anaya will keep you captivated till the end ^_^
