The plot
Love can cause a life-long impact on someone’s life and it can change a direction of his/her decisions. It can impact on career, personal and professional life. It reflects in When Love Happens plot written by Mr. Manish Kumar. Nish falls in love with his classmate named G who belongs to a conservative family. Nish becomes very serious about his love towards her but she does not promise him anything. Though she keeps in touch with him during all these years. However, it badly affects Nish’s life but he tries to fight his obstacles by being determined.

At the end, G gets married to someone else as she does not go against her family whereas Nish throughout all these years fights odds and tries to become a stable person and focuses on becoming a writer. Eventually, he ends up becoming an IT engineer and a part-time writer.
 
Review
Everyone falls in love and fall out too and it is just another love story with an extremely mediocre plot. It fails to hold a grip on reader’s mind. The characters are also very mediocre in nature. The author wanted to express his personal experience story and how he fought throughout all his life but I fail to understand when and how he became mighty enough to fight his struggles. Till the page number 90, I could read same storylines again and again when the author says,’ I tried to focus on my life goals and become strong.’ But how many times?

The story has poor incidents with disinterested dialogues. Author has highlighted some of the incidents in his real life that took place but they are not at all entertaining and interesting. There is this one character called Chutki keeps saying,”Kya hai?”. The incident is poorly depicted.

lYes, the Love story is decent and could have been better if the author has narrated the story in the more interesting way. He could have peppered the story with rich words, great vocabulary and interesting lines.

Though I appreciate author’s efforts and genuine but the story miserably failed to impress.

Writing style
Very simple language and lacks rich words.

Book title and book cover
The title and the book cover is apt.

My rating
2.5/5
