Review :
A well written , well plotted and extremely well told book. Alumni Of The Year is gripping read. The characters and their response and action are believable and engaging. Nice character development. With the author engendering the right level of trust in each character as the story progress. The story revolve around Dave who is ambitious and sandwiched between angry boss and family. I loved how this book explored really serious topic of today's world such as family and friends and their values , existence of God. The book and it's title offer delicious hints of this book topic. The book is an eye opening read for those who are over ambitious and do not give sufficient time to family. Book is fast read and language of the book is simple. Overall a good read.
