Book Review: My Ramyeon Girl

Love is a genre that can never go out of fashion in literary writing. Various writers have explored it from different perspectives and different viewpoints and one thing that all try to say is that love as an emotion is the purest of all. The author, Nethra A in her story “My Ramyeon Girl” does the same. The difference comes when she explores different themes and ideas. So even when the main plotline is of a love story, the underlying themes like racial differences, negating geographical boundaries, narcissism, celebrity life in comparison to a common man’s life, stardom and its effects on the life of a person and the person as a whole make sure that there is something or the other for every reader to read.

The presence of all these themes and a very innovative plotline shows an absolute potential for the book to go a long way and also be converted into a film. Such kind of diverse themes also open the appeal of the book to a variety of readers only to increase the audience widely. The flow of the plot is also finely done and it progresses at a fine speed. Also, there are light twists and turns which makes the plot unpredictable too.
