Book Blurb:
Life teaches us what ‘love’ truly is and love gives definition to ‘life’
Aisha, a bit of a late bloomer, has to figure out what it means to be a woman and
to be desired. Danish feels time is running out for him and he’s going to end
up as a nobody, as opposed to his overachieving, determined younger brother.
Life takes a strange turn when Danish, the confused idiot, is appointed as the
student counsellor to Aisha. Between the two of them they have to figure out love,
life, friendship—most of all, themselves. And it’s not proving to be . . . easy?
Our Impossible Love presents: Life the way it is and Love the way it should be
‘Our Impossible Love’ by Durjoy Datta was my first book of the year 2016 and trust me it didn’t let my expectations down. After his last book I was slightly hesitated while picking this book but after done with the reading, I was glad that I read this book.
The story revolves around the 2 protagonists; Danish Roy and Aisha Paul. The author has brilliantly written the book in 1st person, simultaneously narrating each protagonist’s part of the story. One chapter includes Aisha’s part of the story and the other has Danish narrating his own side of the story.
Again the author has brilliantly built the story and created a world where Danish meets Aisha. (While I was on the first few chapters of the book, I thought Danish and Aisha has different stories to tell but I was amazed when the Author made the two of them meet).
Danish Roy was Aisha’s counselor in school. On their first meet Danish had a crush on Aisha and she found him cute. From the start it was clear that the two of them are made for each other but love never comes that easily. It is then Vibhor comes into the picture. So would Danish and Aisha fall for each other or is there a different side of the story? Trust me through this review I’m not going to say everything about the book. You have to read it to know the entire story.
Not only this book has a love story but it also has a story which speaks about parents-children relationship, friendship, jealousy and last but certainly not the least a Gay relationship. Isn’t that something you can’t afford to miss? So go for it.
Likings: Easy read, Page Turner, Beautifully narrated, A happy ending.
Disliking: Not many but the character of Aisha somewhat seems confused. She could have acted in a little mature way.
My Ratings: 4.5/5
(I don't have a valid reason to deny you from picking this book)
