I recently picked up If It’s Not Forever, It’s Not Love, written by Durjoy Datta and Nikita Singh. The title itself feels heavy with emotion ,it makes you wonder: what is love if it’s not forever? Is it still love at all?
This book is a mix of romance, friendship, and self-discovery, but it’s also about pain, healing, and the idea that every love story leaves a mark.
The story begins with a man named Deb who narrowly escapes a bomb blast in Delhi. The incident shakes him so much that he starts questioning life and love. In the middle of the chaos, he finds a diary belonging to someone who didn’t survive the blast. Inside, he discovers a love story left incomplete.
Deb feels a strange responsibility to complete this story. With his girlfriend Avantika and his friend Shrey, he sets out on a journey to find the diary’s rightful owner or at least give closure to the love story that was cut short.
The story is emotional but not heavy ,it keeps you hooked with mystery, romance, and travel. The diary adds a fresh twist to the usual romance novel. The language is simple, making it a quick and engaging read.
If It’s Not Forever, It’s Not Love is not just a love story ,it’s also about second chances, finding closure, and realizing that love is powerful, whether it lasts forever or not.
If you’re someone who enjoys emotional, fast-paced love stories with a touch of mystery, this book will stay with you long after you finish it.
