*FOURTH REVIEW*
NAME- HALF GIRLFRIEND
AUTHOR- CHETAN BHAGAT
RATING- 8/10
The beginning of the book is quite interesting and can hook up readers to know what happens further. Though, the whole of the story is again a love beginning, then a separation, then coming back together through a climax, and then 'they lived happily ever after'. The author has also focused on some social issues prevailing in Bihar and has also succeeded in quoting some historical facts.
One more thing I liked in the Book was the way Riya taught English to Madhav. Beginners can definitely practice as per the way taught.

The worst thing felt was the overly melodramatic story, not less than any Bollywood movie, which often makes you watch anything crap and you don't get frowned because deep down you know- after all it's a Bollywood Movie. The entry of Mr. Bill Gates in a school situated in a small district of Bihar ran by Madhav was one among such craps.

Another impractical thing which too resembles to a Bollywood Masala is the enduring madness of the Hero, Madhav for his Heroine, Riya for years, and the Hero reaching New York so easily without any difficulties to get his Heroine back.
