About the author:

Ratna Pushpa was born and brought up in Hyderabad and did her engineering in mechanical. Having worked as a Personality Development Trainer for four years, she gave up her job to be a full-time writer. She’s a voracious reader, an artist and a yoga freak. When she isn’t reading or writing, she tries her hand at varied culinary, the activity that helps her unwind and works as a therapy. Currently, she’s residing in Pune with her husband and son.

Blurb:

What do you do when your best friend, the one person who has stood by you through thick and thin, knows you better than you know yourself and literally saved your life falls in love with the same girl as you? Avinash and Sahas, two village boys arrive in Bangalore in search of art and in pursuit of ambition. Sahas, hardworking and nervous, antonym to his friend, has emerged from a troubled past only to find that his future doesn’t come without encumbrances. Their friendship is the one constant in the two boys’ lives, but that is tested when they each meet Aarti, a mysterious, compassionate, beautiful girl who captures both their imaginations and sets their hearts aflame. Will their passion for the same girl and an untimely tragedy, sunder the two friends forever? A compelling tale with twists and turns reminiscent of India’s melodramatic films, For a Girl in a Star deals with the age old staples of young love, heartbreak and what it means to be a true friend.

My Verdict: 

The cover of the book is really good. The title is apt and just. The book was quite entertaining as well as emotional. It maintained a perfect balance of suspense and emotions throughout.  

story revolves around Avinash, the artist of a small town in big city like Bangalore to achieve what we call dreams. And then comes Sahas, another small town boy and dearest childhood friend of Avinash who also has the same business in Bangalore. The characters are strongly portrayed. The best part of the book is its good narration. It can make the readers hooked up.
The plot was predictable. There are so many grammatical mistakes. If we ignore these then it's a nice read.
