The story is fast-paced with a smooth flow which keeps the reader hooked to the story. One can totally relate to the story from the very first page.  The author expressed each and every event in detail. The way she sequenced each and every event is excellent. The story strongly emphasizes on the spirit of never giving up.

From Meera’s childhood to her daughter’s childhood, the journey is described in a brilliant way. The theme of love, desire, loss, a relationship is set well with the beautiful backdrop of Bihar. The characters of the story are strong and appealing. I loved Ira’s Meera, and Diya’s characters the most. They are strong and played a vital role in the story.

The language used by the author is simple and easy. The writing style of the author is Lucid. The sequence of the events was pleasant.  the cover and the title of the book is apt. There’s a lot of drama and Dialogue with keeps the reader invested in. It’s like a complete Bollywood movie. I loved the mother-daughter bond.
