What I like most about the book is in the end it teaches you something. ~ Gaurav 2. The story was a learning and further sensitized me (as a man) about the vulnerability and ordeals a working lady suffers today. I feel thankful to the author. ~Ambuj Sahu 3. I wish I could add a few more stars on the reviews but there are only five of them. ~ Vanita Das 4. Portrayal of emotions is the author's forte - and despite the limitations of plot-details that a full-length novel might well negotiate - it makes the novella an hour's delight and absolutely recommendable. ~ Anurag Anand 5. If you are not a fan of cliched topics and dare to try something new, this is it. ~Dhruv Agarwal
