I have no idea where to starting this book. Okay, let's just take it by giving a quick idea of the book to the reader. So the book is about a girl child who is abducted at birth, sold multiple times, made to beg assaulted and invaved in ways one don't want to imagine. Tbh, I've read books and fictional pieces on on abuse, call me a weird but none of them hit me at heart. Like, it felt too made up too unreal. When I read this book, I could feel the ache, I could see the innocence of the child, the cruelity of the society and sick mentality of the assaulter. The book also pointed at the toxic ' sharmo-haya ' of the Indian society, and how unfair it is. At one point I felt like high fiving a character on the face with a shovel for they didn't file and FIR against r*pe cause they ' cared ' about the ' respect ' the ' purity ' of the girl. I was disgusted, I felt pity, I felt empathy and so many vivid emotions The only reason I ain't giving a solid 5 stars to this book is because of the language and way of writing the book. It was understandable but there were parts that were unnecessary written, like i wanted to delete those pages and go on with the story and ther were parts I wished were written with more details But other than that, I think people who just started reading this genre should definately try this book, it's really good for a start!
