Review: The Weekend
The Weekend by Lovely Sharma
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is strictly not a love story, but made of many small ones. It is a story happening over generations of bygone traditions and beliefs that still run deep in our society. The society that loves as well as fears the same things.
As Akshya Shah runs to never look back at the disaster that happens, she collides with Deepak Shukla. While Akshya is running away from her future which has been set in stone by her parents, Deepak is running towards his aspirations set and supported by his parents.
In a world of pretence, both are wanting to be grounded. It is a chemical reaction uniquely qualified to be tested. Friday brings down the pretences, but what will Monday morning bring?
The Weekend by Lovely Sharma is an romantic fiction blended with love and friendship, I would like to refer it as new age story of all the younger ones. First of all title is most suitable one as the story is of about one weekend. The cover is also designed in the aspect of story the person in left refers to Deepak Shukla, son of a big business man and the person in right refers to Akshya Shah, a modern girl with broad mind.
The story is all about one weekend when Deepak and Akshya eventually meet each other in a train and coincidentally stays at same hotel. As the story moves on as both strangers have conversation with each other and gets to know about the present happenings and past things happened in each other life to get rid of their on going life disasters.
When Akshya's flashback emotionally attached with Divya's friendship in other side Deepak's flashback glued with Mother and sister sentimental bond. The 'n' number of characters in flashback and Little grammatical mistakes makes my read little slow, other than that all were just awesome.
I personally liked the perfect connection of plot and feelings of characters together. Overall, The Weekend would be a good and simple weekend read as that as lucid language of novel.

Underneath the rich spoilt brat, lies a broken heart.
Underneath the attitude of a bitch, lies a lost friendship.
