Five point someone... that great ???

Managed to flick a copy of Five point someone from a senior pal. A lot of rave reviews were coming to me about this book and about how cool it was. Well Chetan Bhagats book is high on funk factor and is an interesting read for a college student. But the book, I personally feel is like a David Dhawan movie only a lil more intelligent. its fun, the humour is good but at times you feel you should have left your brains back somewhere before you start reading certain parts of this book.

Five point someone follows the life of three under average students at IIT from diverse backgrounds who end up one fine day in the hallowed halls of IIT and how they spend their time at college. Actually the book cover reads "How not to live in an IIT."

At 95 bucks well... the book is a one time read and it does have some interesting stuff but Chetan Bhaga... Well,,, he's from IIT. IIT is like YALE, HARWARD, PRINCETON and OXFORD under one roof for an average Indian. Its where you go if you are the brainiest of the superbrainy. Well maybe coz of that I expected more from this book but am a bit disappointed.

But there are some secrets in this book that you should definetly look out for and which makes it worth a read. Read it but only once.
