I Had a Best Friend Too by @capranav_author is a tender, nostalgic journey back to the pre-Instagram world—when friendships bloomed through Orkut scraps, SMS recharges, and handwritten emotions. Set on a train from Delhi to Lucknow, the story reunites Pranav and Aparna, two best friends who lost touch twelve years ago. What begins as an awkward reunion slowly turns into a heartfelt conversation about memories, missed chances, and the quiet ache of growing up. Sharma’s storytelling is gentle and evocative. His words flow like an old melody—familiar, comforting, and full of pauses that mean more than they say. Pranav’s silence carries depth, while Aparna’s warmth fills every page with light. Together, they remind us of a time when connections were slower but more sincere. The novel doesn’t rely on twists; its beauty lies in simplicity—in reliving the emotion of a text never sent, a goodbye never said. It’s a reminder of how friendships shape who we become. I Had a Best Friend Too feels like finding an old message in your inbox—bittersweet and timeless.
