I am really spellbound after reading this amazing book. It is an emotional roller coaster ride, which is both gripping and overwhelming. The book talks about suicide, mental illness, depression, loss, trust and many more things.
The emotional Turmoil, the anxiety, the insecurities and hopes of Ankita, along with lots of life lessons which she got, is something that everyone can correlate to. I like the way her messed up and obsessive thoughts are mentioned in the book. Breaking down the stigma around mental health, this book helps us see mental illness from the perspective of the person that suffers with it day in and day out.
The character of Ankita is very-well developed, but the other characters, especially Vaibhav, seemed vaguely developed. Also, the narration is not much smooth, as the book gets boring somewhere in the middle.
The ending of the story is uplifting and shows how severe mental illness can be treated. The book demonstrates how by changing our thoughts, we can change our life itself. The author has written various words of wisdom, in the form of Ankita's Life's Little Notes, which made the book much more engaging.

Now in Mumbai, she starts her new life. She joins her favourite course, creative writing and starts going to college again. Everything was almost normal until that day when she accidentally discovers a book in her college library. The Book which challenges her sanity and reminds her of the dark past.

REVIEW -
🌸The writing style is simple and easy to read. Beginners can easily enjoy reading this book.
.
🌸The Narration style is very good. The Author narrates everything in a detailed manner.
.
🌸 The storyline is really weak. It goes downwards with every page. There's no story at all. The book is all about the protagonist's day to day routine life and thoughts.
.
🌸Unnecessary Dragging makes this book damn boring. There's nothing that we can read and enjoy. NOTHING..!!!
.
🌸The Characters are drawn averagely. They're Simple, common, and regular.
.
🌸The Climax is little better than the entire story. Overall, an average read.
.
.
Final Thought - Expecting much more because the Prequel was an amazing one but the sequel disappointed me.

Yet another Amazing work by Preeti Shenoy mam.
By lakshya on 22 April 2019
Fighting someone else is easy, but a person’s greatest fight is the one he/she has to fight with him/herself on daily basis. Ankita was a bipolar patient and is looking forward to start her new life locking away her past. But is it really the right way to deal with it ? This book taught me how one can never lock their past away. It will always find a way back in your life. The only way to deal with it is to accept it, to accept the mistakes you have made, to accept the wrongs you have been through. Only then you will be really able to make peace with it and grow out of it.By lakshya on 22 April 2019
