Publisher's Summary
There are two kinds of people in this world - those who follow the rules and those who do not think twice about breaking them.
It’s the mid-’90s. Studious, smart and sincere, Veda harbours big dreams for the future. But her parents arrange a marriage for her, and the 20-year-old discovers that she has no say in the matter.
Forced to leave behind an idyllic life in the hill town of Joshimath - filled with conversations and pleasurable times with her siblings and her best friend, the handsome Suraj - she puts aside her ambitions and moves into a flat in Pune with an indifferent husband and a mother-in-law from hell.
Though brought up to be quiet and obedient, Veda chafes at the meaninglessness of her existence and struggles to cope with the unexpected loneliness she is engulfed in. Then, amidst the dark clouds of stagnation and despondency, Veda carves out the unlikeliest of silver linings.
How does she do this? By breaking the rules?
Or by following them?
In this emotional roller coaster of a novel, Preeti Shenoy treads bold new ground yet again.

Worth listening
It helps to understand the mind of an young girl, her feelings, aspirations and the life’s challenges thrown on her and how she reacts and responds. The author has expertly captured the girl’s emotions and feelings. For some, it may look like a routine story, but for me, it’s a good story to listen/read. Finally the narrator (by her excellent narration) infused life to this audible version.

Very average kinda story
I've read Preeti Shenoy's works on Kindle and started hearing on Audible too, and I like her work. But this story seriously felt very average kinda. The kind of reviews it got made me attract to pick this one. But towards the end felt that I could have heard this one while passing my time, it didn't need too much attention.
As far as the voice narration is concerned, she did a great job. Voice modulation and emotions portrayed really well. Kudos to her for her performance.

Quite a good book
The narration is very good. The story is believable. Young Veda's vulnerability and how elders decide the course of her life is relatable to most of the Indian girls. She is like a caged bird at times with only letters for company. She comes out as a very strong character finally. l definitely recommend this book.
