This is the story of a teenager Tanu. She's an average looking, confident and intelligent girl who has been brought up in a middle class family. She's very much focussed towards her career and determines to pursue her degree in an IIT. She successfully cracks the JEE and gets admitted in the IIT, Delhi. The story starts at this point.
From being a nerd in the beginning, she transforms into the most outstanding student in her batch by the end of her final year.Her struggle and survival through the 4 years of college life in IIT is described in a simple, straigh-forward manner. Her initial feelings of infactuation towards her batchmate and the subsequent determination to overcome it and focus on her studies and the way she dealt with the marriage proposal from her senior are very impressive. Life in IIT (with a skewed sex-ratio, gruelling course work and biased professors) seen through a girl's perspective is quite interesting.
Not a great read, but definitely a good one. Finished it in one go :)
