The 3 Mistakes of My Life – Book Review

  • Book Name – The 3 Mistakes of My Life
  • Author – Chetan Bhagat
  • Pages – 206
  • Publishers – Rupa & Co
  • Price (India): Rs 95 (Rs 71.25 here – Indiaplaza * Hindu Site)

One main thing that will entice you to buy and read this book- The 3 Mistakes of My Life (t3mom) is that it is a “Chetan Bhagat“’s novel…well he tries to keep your enchanted throughout the book :)

As in other two novels, Chetan also is a part of this novel and he hears the story from a different person and makes it as a novel (not sure how much of the story is true… :P )

The 3 Mistakes of My Life

Once again he has written about students (his other book on students was Five Point Someone) and has well-knit the story around them :)

If you are a Cricket lover, you will really enjoy this book. As usual there are three friends in this story, the entire story is narrated by one of the friends.

This book can also be a suggested read for Entrepreneurs and people who want to start a business with partnership. Chetan describes in simple terms on how to choose a location for your business, how to negotiate with the wholesalers, how and when to expand your business, how to deal with profits, accounting practices and to “expect the unexpected” – that is how to deal with losses.

These three friends start a business as partners…followed by various incidents which helps them to realize their dream. This movie covers cricket, business, religion and of course love :)

Well, let me not uncover the story entirely, it would be great if you can buy this book and read :) It is a very short book (and cheap also… 95 INR only), I am sure you can read it in 2 to 3 hours at a stretch…

Somehow I felt that his writing has turned from Actual Story to Cinematic one. I guess he has started writing his novels for movies ;) This book is more like a filmy one…

Happy Reading
