MenXP reviews Blowfish
Some quotes from the review
"It's easy to relate to the protagonists; for the simple reason that the protagonists are a reflection of the reader. Through most of the scenarios that the author takes you through in Blowfish, you'll be able to find some incredibly relatable instance of your own life glaring back at you. And that's why you should read Blowfish, Because nothing will relate and connect with you better; not even the next guy who's probably going through something similar."
"...you'll find that Tripathi has a particular brand of wit that is fast, funny and hard-hitting. Tripathi paints a realistic picture of everyday scenarios and manages to craft a story that is one of every Indian guy. He isn't a Chetan Bhagat, or a Durjoy Dutta. He doesn't paint it any colour that it isn't meant to be. So, if you're looking for storylines that border on a Bollywood script, you might not find it in Blowfish. What you will find is an absence of flashy cars, posh bungalows and melodrama that is overhyped at the very least. You will find WagonRs, typical Gurgaon traffic jams and moments of happiness and joy in the little, more real instances that happen—both, in the book and in real life."
