I think my biggest problem with the book was that I didn't like the main character. I didn't connect with him. And I only started to like Ananya once she started to be a bit more defiant and shown her strong nature 'cause until then she didn't feel much like a character to me. I think both of the characters just weren't developed enough individually and as a couple. I also think the ending of the book and the resolution was too quick.
I expected the therapist segment to have more importance and Krish's depression to be felt in the writing a bit more. He described the notions but I didn't feel it actually happening - like mentally. And then to have it all resulted simply by his dad going to Chennai. Having his conflict with his dad resolved by him simply going to Chennai.
I just didn't find the writing that striking.
I still thank my friend for giving the book to me.
