I finished reading ‘The 3 Mistakes of My Life’ in just 4 hours. The first thought after reading it was that the author seemed confused. I was at a loss to what the author wanted to convey. The book is somewhat stereotypes and not in the same league as of the first two books by chetan.
The story is about 3 friends and is set in Ahmedabad. It has popular themes like friendship, love, cricket, religion and business to make it a interesting novel. The 3 Mistakes of My Life title just seemed to be a good marketing tactics. All the three are not mistakes in true sense. Of the three, two do not seem to error in judgement – but everyone needs to make those errors to grow up. And one mistake is repeated again and again, which does not make it a mistake but a habit.
The book grabs the life and colors of Amdavadi life in a very beautiful manner. The 3 Mistakes of My Life is readymade for Bollywood.
Overall, the book is not extraordinary.
