Book Review: Someone Like You (JustMyThoughts)

 Someone Like You

      -  by Nikita Singh and Durjoy Dutta (Authors)


“Someone like you” written by Nikita Singh and Durjoy Dutta

is a college-life romantic novel.

The story starts with its protagonist Niharika, a girl picturized

as nerd initially and a Stay-away kind of girl who ends up

falling in love.

                                                ( from Google Images)


When ignorant about love, its hard for a person to

differentiate between love and lust or the right person from

the wrong one. The people who appear to be caring are the

ones causing bad -luck which gets ignored in the name of

‘trust’ on that person where as the person who actually cares

is usually left unnoticed.

The book develops in the reader some encouragement for

football as it comprises of the major part of the novel. The

book forms its plot in an Engineering college whose football

team’s fate gets completely changed on arrival of some

junior players one of whom is guided by person-not-in-team.

The novel presents the transformation journey of Niharika

through various roads including that of loss of friend,

unwinding the cause of loss and moving on from the loss.

Written in simple language its going to be a simple read and

its connectivity to readers keep them turned on until the end.

Escaping, but from whom?

It's a quite place which I always claimed will make me most productive.  And now that I am here, I occasionally get lost in my thoughts, which is basically about all the issues I am surrounded with. While at home,  I was constantly in search of emptiness, a room where no one ones what am I doing, judge whether what I am doing would actully help me make my future better, to validate the feelings I express. I used to just sleep or try to study in a room locked from inside where most of the time was spent crying till I am too exhausted to do nothing more than needed, sorting what went wrong and hiding from everyone around. I have been there before and after attempts of moving on, the things are back again , right in front of me. Everytime it happens, it leave a hollowness inside which doesn't really fills up. It gets deeper, progressively. I have been shrinking out socially and hasn't been a serious bother since the ones I have to keep with me, are with me.  The previous tim...

That's the way I work!

 I exhaled the breath that was captured inside me, realizing that the person didn't intend to convey the news to me yet. I'll get my news.  I don't know how long that's going to take but my mind is beginning to take its troll. I just couldn't wait anymore!  Was the news even meant for me? I didn't know. All I knew was , being patient is the only option to patient.  I have been acting impulsively. Once I decide I want to finish off something, I'll do it anyway, without giving it a second thought. Once convinced, concider it's done. The whole efforts, are therefor, put into the Convincing process. It's freaking hard to convince me to do something. My friends often say, why do you think so much? Why are you so afraid of taking actions ? I don't think I am afraid or I take too much time deciding. It's just, i don't have an explanation for this. If my Gut feeling says I should do it, I'll do it or otherwise.  Following my own philosophies,...

  I can stare at the sky and think about literally everything that’s there, be it connecting the dots of my past happenings that got me to the stage I am. While thinking about it, I feel as if I am narrating my favorite experiences to my long-gone friend. I jump from one experience to another, losing the chain of the story and eventually getting back from where I started. I think about the most practical things I can see in my future and what I’ll need to do for it. At times, I land up making alternate possibilities of how things might have turned out if I had made choices a little different from what I actually did. Sometimes, when I don’t want to think about anything in particular, I get my earphones and enjoy the music and the peace in me with the quiet of the night. Without anything to listen, my head will always be filled with something or the other. So yeah, that works sometimes. I see aeroplanes occasionally. They lit me up. Memories. Dreams. Possibilities. In these da...
