3.0

A beautiful, bittersweet story that shows reality as it is. The author still keeps it hopeful and positive. Though I'm a fan of happy ever afters, the ending of this book is perfect. The only problem (for me) is that the prose is not my style. I liked it more poetic and vivid. The style here is simple and effective to the point where it drives the point home for even the non-regular readers.
Since the plot is based on a sensitive subject- Vilitigo while addressing various societal issues, this book is worth reading.
