My Review:
UNNS, it took me quite long to guess what the title really means. It is only after the 100th page of the book when I found the real meaning of the word, UNNS. Like the title, the heading of the chapters made me confused too. The 100th page of the book cleared all my confusions.
Before I begin my review, let me divide the book into 3 parts:
1. Teenage Love
2. Mission Munich
3. Mission Belmont
The first part narrates the love between Atharva Rathod and Meher Qasim. Like many other books that I have read, this book also has a same kind of love story. Oh! well it wasn't love but a mere infatuation, I guess. Author made the protagonists fall in love with each other quite easily. That never happen in real life, does it?
Using a simple easy language the author has built some Love in the Air. And what I didn’t like is the editing part. The Author or may be the Editor hasn’t put an end mark when a scene ends. Sometimes it will make the reader confused.
The Second part, Mission Munich is a pleasure to read, only if I hadn’t watch the Salman Khan starrer movie. I won’t say the movie name or else you can easily guess the plot line used. Let the suspense be intact. So if you have watched that movie then you no need to read this phase of the book ‘coz it would be easier to know how the mission will end. I skipped a few pages.
Now let me come to the third part, just like the second part here the protagonist Atharva is in another mission. But unlike the previous mission, this mission was something new to read. And definitely a reader will enjoy it.
A double unexpected ending is what makes this book an enjoyable read. Had it not been the ending I would have rated this quite poorly but a double climax at the end was something which I had never thought. Kudos to the Author’s brain.
Likings: Easy Read, Page Turner, Double Climax at the End, Love and Hate chemistry between the Protagonists
Disliking: No End Marks at the end of the scenes, some parts were inspired by a Bollywood movie.
My Ratings: 3/5
(Just an extra point for the ending)
