Chasing 33%

  • Format:

Did you hate the Board exams too? Yes, that struggle was REAL! Two sixteen-year-old boys are all set to take on their board exams. Set in the lush greenery of the 1990's Assam, this walk down the nostalgic lane is replete with references to the teenage years of any kid, tongue-in-cheek humor and laugh-out-loud moments. The narrative transports you to your own teenage years as you look back fondly reminisce on your own journey. The boys are different - average in science and maths, but with their own equations for life, spirited yet sensitive, with a thousand questions and sassy answers. Rendered through the eyes of a young lad who couldn't be bothered by the rat race, Chasing the dreaded 33% is sure to leave you smiling and laughing your gut out with the writer's wry sense of humor! This book is a beautiful reminder that life is far more than just numbers that are ascribed to you after testing your memory against unfair standards.
