This one is not just a normal story about 4 lives but it’s more about how people think! There are shades of thoughts in this one book in each character and all the characters stands out differently from each other, that’s one good part about it. Story line was different and climax was not quite as I thought and that’s what I like about Kajal Oza Vaidhya’s writing!! It also explains bond between 2 women and many more relationships.
After reading this book, I accept that the emotions of a woman can only be understood fully by a woman only. A woman can only write a book like this. Hats off to the author for the way she has portrayed the characters of two emotionally struggling women and childhood friends Madhvi and Reema.
A must read for every man. Apart from a gripping story this book will leave you speechless and thinking about how much a woman can bear and sacrifice for the well-being of a family.
