Do you follow your heart more than your head and thereby tend to make mistakes?
Do you have great dreams and aspirations but find it hard to survive in this cutthroat competitive world?
Do you have a funny bone in you to laugh at life’s tragic turns and accept that you are Human enough to make mistakes?
If yes then ‘To Err is Human’ is for you. It is a story about Malini, a girl with big dreams who comes to Mumbai to fulfil them. Malini is compassionate, hilarious, sensitive, emotional and not to forget she is a magnet for errors, attracting disasters all along.

You find yourself relating to her woes and everyday incidents as she unfolds one adventure after another sinking herself in trouble more deep than she can manage to get out of. Yet it allows us to catch a glimpse of her true self and realize that it is a normal human tendency to commit such errors.
Her dream is endangered when one day she commits a vast mistake. A die hard romantic she haste’s to fall in love & trusts Anuj with her dream. This single error turns her life upside down. Working at her dream job, Malini realizes that her co-workers are not her friends. It’s a dog-eat-dog world and everyone wants to climb the ladder of success—even if they step on their co-workers like rungs on this ladder.
She learns one can’t always judge a book by its cover. At first, Manoj is annoying with his constant chatter and unkempt style, but soon he proves there’s more to him than meets the eye.
But is it too late for Malini to make amendments? Would Malini achieve her dreams? Would life be divine enough to forgive her?
Find out in this rib cracking funny escapade. Malini’s witty charm will keep the pages turning.

To Err Is Human, interesting title with a beautifully designed cover, easy to grab ones attention, which made me curious to read the book as well.
The plot and the story is good which has not been given justice by its poor narration, which also requires some more editing. However the best part of the book is the character Malini, full of humour and witty and not to forget "ERR".
We have heard of humans making mistakes, but have you ever heard of humans attracting problems because of these mistakes? It should be criminal to be prone to committing errors and inviting such problems. Plot of the book revolves around the character Malini and her capabilities to attract problems like magnets and gets caught in a whirlwind of adventures to the point where she lands herself getting abducted by gangsters, yes you heard me right, gangsters.
