My Review : Double or Quits; a story of Professional vs Personal life.This is a story of success against odds.A story where a girl makes her complete devotion in her personal as well as professional life.The story also states the value and importance of friendship; which plays a major role in bringing up the morale of the protagonist.
The technicalities and business related words discussed in the book are very much understandable by any reader.She very brilliantly puts light on the Finance industry and that too very significantly.
The story at places seems a bit stretched. Involvement of over-stretched content in the story acts a hindrance in the flow of the story.Due to the participation of such content one might get distracted from the story, but then the story gets back on the track and the reader finds the lost interest all over again.
