Introduction: Well, I keep a profound interest in Reading book and have read books of different genres and of different writers.
What is the name of the author? And here I would like to talk about my favorite writer Chetan Bhagat. I came to know about him when I received his best seller book “2 states” as a gift from my friend on my birthday a few years ago. I was happy to receive this book but didn’t know much about it and the writer.
But my friend told me that he is the best Indian writer and his most books sell like hotcakes. He told me about the book 2 states which is based on a social issue of intercaste marriage of my country. So I read it with curiosity on my friend’s advice. I thought it would take few weeks to finish reading it. But I read the whole book in just 5 days as it was so interesting. I really liked the writer’s style.
What did you like about his books? He uses a very simple language that anyone can follow comfortably. In fact, the best element is the sense of humor of this writer which makes reading quite interesting and fun. I had a great laugh while reading the book. Humor is in fact a characteristic of his every book as I have read many of his books later. Now I frequently follow him on social media too to get to know about his upcoming writings as I love the way he writes.
Books of Chetan bhagat are fairly priced as well so that his followers can easily buy and read since a vast majority of his readers is youngsters.
Conclusion: I believe he will continue to bring his good work and entertain and educate society with his amazing writings in future as well.
