I started this book with a lot of reservations and very low expectations regarding language and story; the tone of the first few pages threw my internal grammar nazi into a fit and the back reads like a typical bollywood movie synopsis. Thankfully, that's exactly what the book delivers and I found myself enjoying every minute of 2 States despite my dislike for romance novels and the fact that I could pinpoint exactly where a song should fit in. A fun, lighthearted read and one I definitely recommend
I liked the movie better...
but then again, I watched the movie before reading the book.
Don't get me wrong, I loved the idea and the plot and the characters. The MCs hit really hard because my parents are North Indian and South Indian...so I was like YOU WENT THROUGH THIS?
spoiler alert: they didn't. disappointing. I need that kind of action in my life.
ANYWAY.
I...liked this. It was a quick read...an easy one too...and yeah. That's all there is to say :)

Loved the book.
I have never read a novel before. Just started with this book 2 States. I started reading it one Sunday morning. I missed my breakfast and lunch to just keep reading the book.

It is an enjoyable book if we do not keep a high expectation. It is a witty and cool book with a very simple storyline. Nothing intellectual or complex in the storyline . Just a book that can make us smile while reading.
The most hurtful and disappointing thing about this book is that it was written by a Punjabi 3

A funny and well scripted plot. No wonder bollywood made a movie on this one. A good light read.
