On the Open Road: Three Lives. Five Cities. One Startup.
by Stuti Changle
ON THE OPEN ROAD
Author - Stuti Changle
Publication- Invincible Publishers
No. of pages - 188 pages
My Review: When this book arrived, I literally fell in love with the cover. Such a beautiful book cover. And I started reading preface, I fell in love with the author's writing. The book hooks the reader right from the first page. When Myra feels frustrated with her job, we also feel frustrated with her. When she want to get out of her cubicle, we feel like encouraging her. And when Kabir wants to start his own business from scratch, we can understand his feeling. And the part where Kabir and Sandy discusses about their start-up, is like a breeze. The author made a great effort to cut the unwanted crap from the book. When these 3 meet and discuss about the start-up, as a reader I feel like arguing with them. The way the characters keeps their point is interesting. And we have a mysterious guy Ramy over there who comes and goes like a full moon! The secret about Ramy is finally revealed at the end of the book which is the main twist of this whole story. Because, Ramy is the person who inspires a whole generation with his blog 'On the Open Road’. But I personally felt that Ramy didn't get a proper closure he deserved.
Long Story Short:
Good Story.
Well paced plot.
Well developed characters.
A beautiful writing style.
Well narrated story.
Pros-
Light read.
Beautiful cover.
Good story and a well paced plot.
Relatable and we'll developed characters.
A good plot twist.
Cons-
Few grammatical errors.
Sometimes I felt the story is disconnected at some point (especially after the presence of Ramy). But it is explained later. Though it could've been avoided.
Would I recommend this book?
Definitely! I would recommend this book as it is a light read as well as a good story. Also, I would recommend this book for aspiring entrepreneurs. It induces the entrepreneur in you.
