Happpily Married Happily Divorced


Hello Bibliophiles!!

I am back with another review.
This time it is, "Happily Married Happily Divorced" By Swati Kumari


 Blurb: 
Varushka is a young and ambitious girl, hoping to make her career before ‘settling down’ and making babies. But like always, her parents have a different plan. After tasting emotional blackmail, requests and even bribes, she is forced to make the choice between her dreams and her parents’ wish.
Her confusion vanishes when she meets Mitash. He is an eligible bachelor, living his life the way he wants, and his practical approach towards life wins her over. They are soon married and settled in Amsterdam, enjoying each other’s company and redefining love in their own special way.
But then, what leads them to a divorce, that too a happy one? Is life about making deals with one’s self, to create the destiny one wants?
Happily Married Happily Divorced will cajole you into leading a happier life and take you on a rollercoaster ride of love, surprises and unknown adventures.

My review:

1.   Cover:
The cover doesn’t go with the plot of the book. It could have been something better.
2.   Title:
The title is apt and does go with the plot.
3.   Characters:
Every Character in the story played their role well.
Typical old generation mentality was portrayed well by some characters.
Varushka is portrayed as the Girl who wants to achieve all her dreams and make her parents proud.
Her sister, Rhea, although her character in the story isn’t much but, she has played her role well, being a supportive sister and a cheerful girl.
Varushka’s Mother is a typical Indian mother, who wants to get her daughter married as soon as she completes her Graduation.
Her father, although he supports his daughter but, at the end surrenders at the wish of his wife and the society.
4.   Plot:
After reading a few pages, I could guess what’s coming next.
At the right places, the typical mentality of people can be seen.
All the thrilling experiences can be visualized by the reader.
Romance, friendship, betrayal, love, respect for everyone, everything is written beautifully.
The Bihari culture is also portrayed beautifully.

Language is easy.
It is a good one time read.

My Ratings: 3.5 stars


Buy the book from Amazon

A self love letter to you, from you, Sunshine :)

Hello Sunshine, How have you been doing these past few days? I know, this is a touché topic to talk about these days but I hope things will get better real soon and we’ll all be able to forget this new normal and will get back to being out older selves with a few changed and better habits that we learned throughout this pandemic. Sunshine, it is not always easy to be our best selves in all the situations but you’ve got to start from a certain point, right? I heard you’ve been thinking that you’re turning into an emotionless being? That you have no idea what you are feeling and why. Tell me something, didn’t you smile last night when your whole family was with you last night, enjoying dinner and watching TV while talking about your childhood memories they cherish till date? Didn’t you embrace the wind you felt on your face while riding your scooter? Didn’t it make you smile? Didn’t you cry when you thought about the fact that there might be a few years left for you to live wi...

Let's pour our heart out today!!

People often say, things never come easily to us. We need to work hard and really very hard to get the things in life that we really want to achieve. Often times I think about being a content writer, sometimes a data scientist or maybe a teacher or just staying a reader for life. People say that I've not been doing much in life professionally/ career related because they do not see me growing. I too think about all this many a times because who doesn't? I like to call these kind of days, " Reflection Days " when I sit down with a diary in hand (sometimes not even a diary) and think about everything I have done, achieved, experienced, regret not doing in this whole life or just the past year to be specific. The conclusion that I reach upon is considerably vague because I just cannot reach a proper conclusion to all these things, I guess no one can. Nonetheless, I reach upon the conclusion that I might have not done what my friends are doing or I might not have achieved...
