“Not everything in the world is supposed to become something ever-lasting. Not everyone will stay forever in our lives. We just need to move on and thank them for whatever they’ve done.”

Prisha, a young girl who wanted to enjoy her freedom, had shifted to Mumbai to fulfill the last dying wishlist of her friend Ayesha, who unfortunately couldn’t complete it. Prisha had promised Ayesha that she would live the life Ayesha always dreamt of, fulfilling her wishes and living each day to the fullest.

Prisha worked at a café and then one day she met Arav, who completely changed her life and its ways. Her lone life was like an empty canvas which were painted with the vibrant colours of Arav.

But then, one day, reality decided to struck Prisha and shatter her happy life into a million pieces.  What happened? Why was Prisha trying to fulfill Ayesha’s wishlist? What was the dark secret of Prisha’s life and how will it affect her newly found love life? Read this amazing book to know all the answers.

I would start by praising the pretty cover which actually compelled me to pick up the book. What appealed to me the most are the innumerous imageries and metaphors, which along with the vivid descriptions helped to create a clear picture of the story as it unfolds. The language is lucid but, I felt that the characterisation of Prisha and Arav could have been better. There are a few grammatical errors in the book. The first half of the story was a little confusing and slow paced but as the second half began, the story gathered a good pace and the plot became more interesting. By the last chapter, it was difficult for me to control my tears. Would definitely suggest this book to everyone irrespective of the genre you love because this book is about a fight for a new beginning and a fight to make everyday matter.
