BLURB
Being a surgeon is not easy. And the ones in Nirog Hospital are the best at making it worse.
Nipun, the eternal prankster and Nishtha, the strong-headed beauty, join the MS (surgery) course under Dr Ujjwal, a brilliant surgeon-cum-alfa male of the hospital, and Dr Anuroop (alias Candy), a smooth operator. Freaky situations and spicy incidents become the norm when their worlds collide. Edgy patients and their relatives add even more spice to the mix.
Amidst all this chaos, Nipun makes every effort to find love but his efforts fail every time. When
he’s not failing, he’s falling—and literally. Soon he starts being known as a doctor who is more
dangerous than the disease itself. Will Fiasco King Nipun attain his two degrees—MS in surgery
and pass certificate in romance?
COVER PAGE
The cover page of the book, Lights! Scalpel! Romance! is very refreshing. It is in bright blue colour having an image of a female and a male surgeon along with a patient which very well reflects about the hospital setting. It is a nice cover with the colours blending very well.
REVIEW
Lights! Scalpel! Romance! by Jas Kohli is a very light read for
me. It was a simple and a fun book to read which I enjoyed a lot. I had a fair
idea about the life of a surgeon but this book gave a new perspective to their
life.
Lights! Scalpel! Romance! Is a very interesting read
revolving around the doctors and the interns of the Nirog Hospital. It takes a reader on a humorous journey,
giving the lighter side of the surgeons. Nipun is a prankster and Nishta is a
beauty and they both joined the MS (surgery) course under Dr. Ujjwal who is one
of the best surgeons at Nirog Hospital. And, with all the hospital work Nipun
tries to find his love but his efforts fail every time.
The book took me on a different journey which talked about
the life of the surgeons not just in the hospital but beyond that. When I got
the book I was not expecting it to be such a fun read rather thought of it as a
very serious book because of the hospital setting but it came out to be a
completely different read and I had a nice time reading it. The narration of
the book is very engaging and it is fast paced,moving from one incident to the
other and can be easily finished in few hours. I really liked the fact that each chapter
holds a new event which made me engross in the book. There are a lot of events
which are heard a lot in the news these days.
The book is penned down in a very simple manner. And, is the
plot is very nicely packed with all the events described in a detailed manner.
I really liked how the author has involved so many examples and especially
highlighted the aspect of nervousness before doing the first surgery. The title
of the book is very well justified as the story holds all the three aspects,
not just the scalpel and the lights of the operation theatre but also the
aspect of romance which remained very fresh throughout the story.I was very well able to visualize the story which made my reading experience all the more interesting.
The characterization of the story is very interesting and
the kind of relation all the characters shared is very amusing. Nipun, the
prankster and just makes everyone happy and is busy searching for his love and
tried his luck with Nishtha who doesn’t want to be in a relation. Another
important character of the story is Dr. Ujjwal, a brilliant surgeon and an alpha
male at the Nirog Hospital. Some other characters are Dr. Anoop, Ayana, Ridhi,
Mayur etc.
Overall, it was a very refreshing and a fun read. I had a great time reading it and enjoyed it a lot.
