A book that leaves you stunned

So as i was hell bored with the Sidney Sheldon, Judith Mcnaught and Stephanie Meyers, i wanted some thing really interesting and gripping to the core then, i found the Donor by Frank M. Robinson  and then i knew that it was all what I need to send a chill down my spine.
The story starts in the room of a clingy down town hospital where Dennis a college kid, finds him self waking up with immense pain and loads of question in his head, all he remembers is having met with an accident along with his friend, but now his friend his not around him any more, No one at the hospital cares to answer his question, with little bit of luck he some how manages to run away from the hospital, again he wakes up in another hospital  where he gets to know that the hospital did not cure him but harvested him but it was not  the first time an organ was taken from him.. Now Dennis has to run for his life who ever is after him certainly knows every move of Dennis.
From there the story gets interesting that it become almost impossible to leave the book, the dark secrets that start unveiling before Dennis, leaves him and left me flabbergasted. Frank M Robinson absolutely creates such scenes in the story which gave me a bag full of goose bumps; the pace of the story keept me turning pages for more and more. The end of the story almost made by jaws touch the floor and shocked how people can be used to save lives. Frank M Robinson carries it off to make the book a collectible item and it left me to go to bat for this book to those who are willing to read some thing spellbinding. and i guess i must have recommended this book to all those i know, A must read.

 The Dating Dilemmas

In the beginning of this millennium having a mobile phone was a status symbol, time changed and now days a part of the youth believes that having a girl friend or boy friend, going on dates is a status symbol. Has it really become a social norm, is it really necessary to go on a few dates before you get settled. But if it is so important why is it still done behind the backs of parents. Why such are programs are shown on television which prompts the youth to date, how many dates actually ends up in a marriage settlement, if its done for good than why is it believed to be a taboo?
I even know a girl who has an imaginary boyfriend, just to show off, stated Mahnoor Irfan a college student, and I believe that 50% college girls go on date and its just an infatuation and attraction for the time being, and such relation ships are just a flash in the pan, Mahnoor also believes that in the end it completely depends on the person itself, whether they want to have the experience of going on the date. Mahnoor also blames the media for brain washing the youth.
Having a girlfriend makes your head high among your group mates explained Hannan an MBA student at LUMS, Hannan clearly accepted the fact that going on dates and having a girlfriend is a status symbol he also said that there are still communities  who do not even talk about this but people from there circle are dating. He forwarded the thought that it is the need of society, our society has become so modernized that we can not move forward without our society, Dating culture is spreading vastly but it is still considered a taboo, one side we can not talk to the other gender according to our religion on the other hand you can not merge well in the society until unless you forget the differences between male and female. He accepted that for him as well for girls its just a time pass activity, though he believes that girls are more loyal than boys, where boys are having multiple relationships, girls like to be one man woman.
As if my daughter will take my permission before going on a date, answered when questioned if he would ever let her daughter go on a date, This dating extravaganza is the part of western culture, it was never the tiniest bit part of our society few years back, why should we even bother following this dating culture. It’s ok according to him if a girl working in office, go on dates, given the reason that girls working in offices are mature enough to understand what the future of a relation ship might be, they know every angle of the society well enough rather than teenage girls. He emphasized that parents should keep cordial relationship with their kids, or even siblings should have confidence over each other.

As long as you love your self that’s what really matters, Its not important to have a boyfriend and vice versa, many have lived long without having a boyfriend or girl friend, Have a relation ship with your self, because you know your self well. Still if you don’t want to have a relationship with your self who ever you choose, “Choose Wisely.”
