Book Description:

In traumatic conditions and struggle between sanity and hallucinations, she is compelled by the circumstances to leave her world. Already fighting a war within, her stances takes a toll witnessing horrifying tales of women and girls. Little did she knew that this catastrophe was not enough for one lifetime, and a storm - was just cooling its heels. 

Will she be able to carve her path while facing the rapists, her tyrant father, appearances of her passed away mother? Should Palak let her life to be decided by people, society, and taboos? Would justice return her life or revenge lend her peace? 

A heart-rending story of a girl, whose beliefs and honor has been battered, stands up to make choices, rediscovering the meaning of life. 


Review:

The story revolves around a group of college mates Palak, Ankita, Tanya, Sam, Arav, Jagan and Uday. All of them have drinking habits except Sam who always stays in her room. When Uday planned a party for Palak's birthday they accidentally hit a car and they got into a fight but later than he also become one of their team members. And when Uday arrange a RAVE party, where everyone enjoys drugs which makes hallucinations. When Palak takes some cocaine she forgot herself and later when she woke up, she had a severe body pain and came to know that she is being raped by someone. But she didn't know who is the Rapist. When she came to know the truth behind it, her heart breaks into pieces. To know more, pick this book and read. 

Heartbreaking story which reflects the activity of the world we live in. The book shows the after effects of the victim who is affected by Rape both physically and mentally. Betrayal, Broken Trust, Friendship, love are the elements of this story.

The book left me in tears through various points in the read, it's raw, heartbreaking sometimes depressing. It revolves around the lot of different truths about the way society treats survivors of sexually assaulted people, and about the way Soceity treats them when they wanted to heal themselves. It was devastating.

Rating : 9.5/10
