Set Your Mind Free by Charmi Vyas Mehta

Rating: 4/5

Summary:

This is a beautiful story of four friends (Azaad, Nir, Alisha, and Havish) who make friends with each other during the very first day of college. Azaad and Nir become love birds, though they focus on their careers too. Something happens and distances start between them. Nir marries some one else. But, now Azaad wishes to meet Nir. Will they ever meet again? Will Nir forgive Azaad for all that he had? Will she walk out of her marriage to be with Azaad again? Or will the story have some unexpected twists.

Strengths:

‘Love at first sight is not correct definition; it should rather be like at first sight and love at first fight.’ I really liked the character of Azaad. Though he did many mistakes, but I appreciate that he had audacity to accept his flaws and mistakes.

Weaknesses:

Language is really easy and flowy. The character sketch of all four is given directly in the initial pages of the book. When I heard the title for first time, I felt that it is a non-fiction book, but it was only when I read the blurb of book that I came to know that this a fiction book

My Opinion:

What I really liked was how the author penned down her philosophy, on various matters, through various characters. The cover page is really beautiful, very calming too. I am glad that I read such and interesting book.
