The only thing you cannot plan in life is when and who to fall in love with . . .

Raghu likes to show that there is nothing remarkable about his life—loving, middle-class parents, an elder brother he looks up to and plans to study in an IIT. And that’s how he wants things to seem—normal.

Deep down, however, the guilt of letting his closest friend drown in the school’s swimming pool gnaws at him. And even as he punishes himself by hiding from the world and shying away from love and friendship, he feels drawn to the fascinating Brahmi—a girl quite like him, yet so different. No matter how hard Raghu tries, he begins to care . . . Then life throws him into the deep end and he has to face his worst fears.

Will love be strong enough to pull him out?

The Boy Who Loved, first of a two-part romance, is warm and dark, edgy and quirky, wonderfully realistic and dangerously unreal.

It seemed like a simple story when I started it. But during the way, it became more interesting. It expressed the inner turmoil of teenage. The perception for the society through the eyes of a teen. A must read for everyone.

Felt like Sidney Sheldon classics. Love is not always being happy, its more real and about sacrifice. Thats what the writer seems to send a message to the reader.

Complex yet true..being loved is sad but thinking neyond boundaries...

Don't demotivate any narrator who puts efforts to make content.

A great story to hinge to.

The book is such a good attempt on addressing the hypocrisy of the Indian society and evils underlying those kind and innocent faces. It's full of sarcasm on such hypocrites and it's full of painful and unacceptable (yet, very common in the country) things.

It's a story that glues you to it from the beginning and leaves you with a heavy heart and deep-in-thoughts mind.

Don’t miss it guys

The whole story is depressing. Not a single time I felt was a happy moment in this book.

Depressing Story... not a love story
