The story is well penned. It is so realistic. You can easily visualise the story. It is so touching and
emotional. The author also conveyed her feelings with a beautiful poem in the middle of the
storyline. The poetic lines are so touching and heart-warming. I would like to mention my favourite
lines here:
"The great lovers of this universe have never been together,
But didn’t you say that our love was forever?"

A soul searching novel that takes you through love, betrayal, hope and emotional breakdown leaving you emotional and teary eyed for a long time. Narration is smooth, plotline is structured and well knitted, and the writing style is excellent.
A must read. I am rating this 5/5.

The book is replete with emotions. I loved how the pallette of emotions was showcased in the book. It took me back to my own college days.
Loved it.
