Review:

Finding Juliet by Toffee is a teenage romance novel which may attract the audience looking for light, sensuous read. The book is definitely not meant for serious readers. The talks about true love but ultimately ends into saga full of sex scenes.

The book is a mushy love tale revolving around two main characters- Arjun and Anjali. The male protagonist is desperately looking for love and due to his weak personality, becomes a flirtatious character due to circumstances. This aspect of the male protagonist portrayed is not something I liked. It is a breezy read with many erotic scenes and may go well with readers looking for such a read.

The language used by the author in “Finding Juliet” is simple and easy to follow but there are several typo and other errors which were annoying. The language used is more like a casual conversation that most youngsters use now a days.

The title and cover are interesting and grabs the attention with the first glance. The plot is ok full of teenage romance with some clichéd elements like liquor, girls, sex and there is nothing new in it. This novel is as much about lust as it is about love. The author juggles between these two.

Also the author keeps on mentioning about the character being an engineer. Why does it become necessary to forcing such instances just to make everyone believe about his geeky intellect? Many a times the narration appeared repetitive.

The simple and straight forward story with a Bollywood movie style feel could not impress me. Everything the author has presented seems more like his imagination.The ending was also abrupt and sudden.

Overall, Finding Juliet by Toffee is an average read which may be enjoyed by readers looking for a light and erotic read. Admirers of clean literature will definitely not like it. Recommended to those who like reading erotic novels.

Overall 2 stars plus one for the efforts put by the author.
