• REVIEW: The novel written by Dr. Sohil depicts the harsh reality of Indian women where from early on, they are subjected to eve teasing, character assassinations, hurls and insults. The book is written in a way which gives knowledge about the topic while not boring us even for a minute. The story moves swiftly giving us ample twists and turns to enjoy the ride. The illustrations in the beginning of each chapter were eye catchy. The author has a great sense of humor which shows in his book. While I loved the comedy and sarcasm of each sentence, I wish they were not in Hindi. Overall, it was a good reading experience.
