My Review
A
couple of days ago, I found out about this amazing book called, Hey Dad! Meet
My Mom… Written by Sandeep Sharma and Leepi
If
you ask me, the USP of Hey Dad! Meet My Mom is the story. This story is
probably the most fascinating stories I have ever read. The story of HDM3
starts with a prologue, giving us the slightest hint of what is coming our way,
but leaves us completely guessing at every turn and in utter shock throughout
the book. The incidents taking place in the story are so unpredictable that you
will never be able to guess what’s going to happen next. The story of HDM3 is
like a dream; like a dream, it takes over our mind slowly and steadily with
light humor and lollipop and later turns our imagination upside down leaving us
baffled and confused at what’s going to happen next.
The
most fascinating feature of this book is the dreams. The protagonist sees dreams
or nightmares to be precise, in his sleep, which leaves him baffled and in fear
and the way these dreams or nightmares have been incorporated in the book was
my personal favorite part of the book. The dreams have a meaning, they say. In
HDM3, dreams play a vital role. Without dreams, story of HDM3 would have felt
like a body without soul. The manner in which authors have written the dreams
or nightmares have seriously left me speechless.
Another
fascinating feature of this book is original poems which go along with the
story and the theme of the book. I really enjoyed the poem with which the novel
ends. Every chapter comes with a few original verses which were very unique and
interesting. For a poetry lover, this was a bonus! The authors have done seriously
great job with original poems. Kudos to them!
But,
one thing I didn’t really like about the book was the staleness of the language
and the metaphors. Both the writers are still young and they have written a
really good story. But, somewhere, the language and the metaphors failed to do
justice, to the story. I kept wishing for paragraphs or sentences which I could
mark as the noteworthy, but, I came empty handed. All I can say is that,
there’s still scope for improvement in the language of both the authors.
I
would rate this wonderful book 3 out of 5 for the unpredictable story and the
original poems written by the author. This book is recommended for all the book
lovers who enjoy a light read during travelling or for those who love reading
on a weekend night tucked in bed. This book is recommended to everyone who
loves a good story with humor, romance, and mystery. And last but not the
least, this is a book recommended to all the boys whose mothers are probably
looking for a bride.
Huge
thanks to Sandeep Sharma for the review copy!
