review 1: Some books are not edited very well. They can have grammatical errors, spelling errors etc, it may not be perfect, but you fall in love with it all the same. Durjoy Dutta's Till The Last Breath, is one such book.I rarely cry while reading books. Call me hard-hearted, but even the tearjerker The Fault in Our Stars left my eyes dry. But the ending of this book made my eyes wet.This is a very beautiful book. I have DD's books in my school library, but I shied away from them as I though them too have too much of sexual content for my taste. When I read the summary of TTLB, however, I just HAD to buy it.This book made me feel so many things at the same time. It isn't an all sad book. A couple of scenes made me chuckle, even when they came after an extremely serious paragraph.Th... moreis book is the story of how two terminally ill patients, Dushyant Roy; a 25 year old with a hot temper and unhealthy habits and is despised by most people, and Pihu Malhotra, a brilliant 19 year old medical student. It is about how they impact the lives of their doctors and the people surrounding them.Now, the characters. Pihu was my favourte. Many people would call her 'sickeningly sweet', but I found her innocent, adorable, and funny. Her relationship with Armaan and her conversations with Dushyant were the highlight of this book. Dushyant is my second pick. I hated him at first, but slowly, I grew to love him and began to understand how he became the way he was. Dr Armaan was a wonderful character. He had his flaws, but he struck me all the same. Kajal was a sweet addition.I am hesitating to give it full 5 stars because of Dr Zarah's character. She didn't come across as a traumatized girl to me. I tried to like her, but I felt she was too shallow and rude. I couldn't sympathize with her at all.Apart from that, the story is good. The initial chapters may seem slow, but it picks up after the fifth chapter our so, and keeps you hooked till the end.4.5 stars
review 2: Firstly, many Indian authors turn me of. Durjoy was one author that I could relate to..he perfectly depicted the current Indian youth's beliefs and views on relationships. But all his books were superficial to me . Sure it was nice reading them but they didn't really touch me. When I read this book... I had a box of Kleenex with me !! I was literally sobbing in each chapter.. Hats to Durjoy! I love this book!! less
