Praveen P Gopinath who is popular in Facebook as Mr.Mallu<\/strong> has come out with a rather unusual book titled ‘Being Moon on 31st Crossroad<\/strong>‘. What is unique about his book is that it is a compilation of Praveen’s life experiences drawn from excerpts of his diary as well as his Facebook status update for the past two years.<\/p>\n

According to Praveen, the inspiration for the book came from the likes and comments he got on his Facebook status. He has been writing his diary since he was 14 and when he became active on Facebook, he started sharing his thoughts and analyzing his mindset when he penned his thoughts on the diary. His introspection was accepted well by his friends and this set him off to write a book on his life experiences.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The book as you can see has an intriguing title and is the sum total of 31 years of his life. The whole book is divided into 3 sections and the first section is filled with the conversations between the author and a woman whom he meets at the lounge of an airport peppered with funny incidents from his past. In the second section, the reader gets to see the incidents through the eyes of the woman. The book reaches its climax through section 3.<\/p>\n

Praveen says that, most books have a purpose, a reason or a message in it for the readers and sometimes, very rarely the book itself turns out to be the purpose, the reason and the message. He promises that it\u2019s a book that people can relate to and from the reviews that are flowing in, his promise is well justified.<\/p>\n

Here are some of the reviews that Being Moon on 31st Crossroad received<\/h3>\n

“Praveen I didn’t do anything since yesterday, just musing upon what I read, what to say it was a life bared to us with such conviction and truthfulness, thank you dear friend for this experience, go on writing, you are a born author.”
