Dork is a series of diary entries by a Management Consultant. The book is a cliched take (especially after having read Chetan Bhagat's books) on how a guy from a premier institute lands up the coveted day zero job and all his problems which miraculously turn him to a super hero by the end. It has all the essential Chetan Bhagat ingredients - humor (the author does try hard at it), a premier institute loser who thinks highly of himself and sex/love.
Having been in the consulting industry, I was able to relate to and chuckle at some of the incidents. I doubt if anyone from outside the consulting industry would be able to laugh at the jokes though.
The book ended rather abruptly and most of it was repetitive. Apparently this is the first of a trilogy and I can't imagine what else can be added on.
