This could have been a good read if:
1. Some of the stories were cut out
2. I cared about anyone in the book
3. The writing was better
At least the movie is better, so I've been told.

It's really good. The story is just easy to get sucked into and its structure enhances that. Salim and Ram are great characters who complement each other well. They are such sweet boys who go through way too damn much!! My main dislike is that the writing is riddled with these quippy little remarks or observations throughout that are mostly just corny. And I do think the movie is better. It just keeps everything a bit more focused and reined in. Very much enjoyed though!

Nice book..
Can't wait to watch the movie.
But I agree with the others, this book is quite homophobic.
Two gay bad characters in one book is too much.
My favorite chapters are Tragedy Queen and A love story.

I had to read this for my book discussion book and I did so begrudgingly. I couldn't really get into the book and despite a chuckle here and there, the story was by and large preposterous with a ridiculous main character. However, the ending was supremely satisfying.
