#Bookreview: The Wrong Way Home by Shunali Khullar Shroff published by @bloomsburyindia "Life is a thing of beauty that can be everything all at once - dull and joyful, calming and exciting, troubling and rewarding. Perhaps the trick is to accept the fact that it is and will remain a beautiful mess. There will never be a perfect moment, but if we accept each and every moment as it comes to us, instead of worrying about the next, we would just be so much happier." - Shunali Khullar Shroff The alluring Kaleidoscope of Nayan's is filled with colour of love, heartbreak, grief, second chances, reinvention, determination and hope.The world of 40yr Nayantara crashes when discovers the news of ex- husband Jay remarrying a beautiful influencer half his age while she is still struggling to come in terms with life after divorce.She is pitied, isolated and judged for her life choices.Nayantara refuses to be the sacrificial lamb, she is a fighter who vows to built her own empire. The engaging storyline kept me glued to the book till the end.The author skillfully explores the unrealistic expectations of the patriarchal society from a middle aged divorced woman.She exposed the double standards of the society when it comes to treating men and women facing the same issue. Nayan's journey of rejuvenating her company, handling her clients, racking her brain to fulfill their demands while keeping sane is something I enjoyed reading.The cool Kalpana, the charming Arjun, the gentleman Vikram and her sanctuary Rishi fills the book with a different kind of energy.The climax made me smile, it filled me with a new hope. I fell for the way, the story presented bitter realities of life with a pinch of salt.Not for a moment I felt dull while reading this book, all thanks to the healthy dose of humour peppered throughout the reinvention journey of Nayan. I would love to recommend this book to every reader who is looking for something more than a romcom. : : #thewrongwayhome #womenwithambition #contemporaryfiction #bookstagramindia
