- Think you are going to meet your Mr. Right in some romantic yet unconventional place like an elevator, or in the form of a stranger who walks up to you with an umbrella on a rainy night and offers to drop you home?
Well congratulations to you!!! Yep. You. You are going to die alone. 'Cause you won't find your Knight in Shining Armour/Prince Charming/Mr. Right or whatever the hell you call him.
You are going to die alone. Definitely.
Although she mention that she enters the market at the age thirty-five, which clearly means that you are only left with the pervs, the ones who shun marriage, the divorcees married surprisingly just for 3 months, the losers, the mamma's boys and the homosexuals. Basically when you reach a sabzi mandi at 12pm, you will obviously just get the rotten leaves. So either you can starve, or eat the leaves. Choice is yours. But Dia, clearly doesn't want to settle just for leaves, even if it requires further scouring.
50 Cups of Coffee, is a fun read regarding the encounters the protagonist of the book Dia, goes through to meet her perfect man. Although she doesn't end up finding her man, because this is inspired from real life and isn't entirely fiction. Her ordeals with the different men, make for a fun, routine breaking read.
PS: All the romantic novels are a sham. This is the real deal. Period.

A tad late but I just came across the review. I hope you enjoyed the book. It was meant to evoke laughter but I think it seems to have evoked cynicism too :) Thanks for the review. Its always a delight to virtually bump into readers. Khushnuma
