This is one of those stories that you will sound strange to say you enjoyed but will definitely stay with most readers for a while.
The main story of Meena being attacked and set on fire by her brothers in the name of “honor” was absolutely horrifying and heartbreaking, especially knowing these attacks still happen around the world.
I did mostly enjoy the way the secondary story of Smita's past was woven in and mirrored Meena's story but found Smita herself to be grating with her attitude to India and Mohan. Some comments and dialogue just read so awkward and stilted it jarred me from the story.
I would definitely recommend this to others and I've got another book by this author to try as I did enjoy her writing.
