“With the right music, you will either forget
everything or you will remember everything.”
The Gold is a very famous boyband consisting of three
Greek gods – Rian, Noah & Luke. What will happen when they are supposed to
attend the private academy Oakwood? The female population of the academy
practically worships the ground these boys walk on. Then, there is Iris. She
could really care less. She is hardly bothered by this new band of drool worthy
guys joining her academy. But what happens when the four of them are stuck
together? Here, let me give you a hint… They embark on a journey full of naughtiness,
pranks, friendships, jokes and quite possibly… Love...
Music – One of my many obsessions, but frankly, the
best one so far. Music holds within itself the power to whether break you or
make you. It’s just about the choice of the music. The reason for me choosing
this book was quite… twisted. Well, main reason was because I love music. It
soothes me and while listening to music, I can easily process things which are
constantly rotating round my head.
Well, so as I was saying earlier, I Love music and
then, there is another thing that I love – Books. And I just twisted Euclid’s
postulate and it came out something like… “I
loving books is equal to me loving music. So, I should try a musical book” Yes guys… This was my pathetic logic
of choosing this book.
Well, coming to the book, this book was great and did
not disappoint. The characters of the book were not exactly badass but then
again, they were not exactly sappy as well. They stood somewhere in between the
sappy characters and the badass ones.
I personally liked Noah the best. That was because, he
is more or less like me. He tends to break down the tension of a situation by
cracking a lame joke. He is super funny and I personally believe that without
this character, the book would have missed out a lot of fun.
The friendship of Noah and Iris was again the best
one. They are more like best friends than brother – sister. I favored this
because, it is not always necessary for the guy friends of a female protagonist
be related to her in a brotherly way. This was something different which I do
not get to read in every second novel I pick up.
So finally, I would say that this book was definitely
not a cliché. So, even if you guys don’t prefer the cliché books, you can go
ahead and try this book. It is funny, amazing, sappy and tensed when it need to
be. This book misses out on ‘No’ emotion and can connect to us. One thing this
book taught me was “Behind any
girl’s favorite song, there is an untold story.” You need not forget this. It might
help you to get to know someone better.
So guys, with all that said, I would really advise you
to go ahead and read this book. You will enjoy it. Three cheers for our band –
Go Gold! Go Rian! Go Music…!
Until next time peeps…!
