Remember Me As Yours
by Novoneel Chakravorty
Remember Me As Yours by Novoneel Chakraborty is the story of two girls, Nityami Thakur and Falak Sultana. Though both come from diagonally opposite backgrounds, what unites them is a trip to Sikkim in the quest for calmness among chaos, again for different reasons.
The author taps into multiple serious issues and themes of our society concerning women through the characters - toxic relationships, uncaring parents, abuse, trauma, sexual assault and violence, independence, and the fight for education and career among a few others. With the easy language and length, the book could be easily finished in a day or two.
The relationship of Nityami with Hemant, and Falak and Razia stood out well for me, and the parent-child relationship for both the protagonists was shown well.
The book is presented as a Romantic Comedy, but it neither feels fulfilling as romance nor comedy (at all). And though the story taps into many themes and issues that persist in today's time, the way they were incorporated into the story feels underwhelming and disappointing. It would not be an exaggeration to say that this is a classic example of how women should not be written by men.
Overall, the story didn't work for me and I felt that though the themes are very much relevant, they were mishandled in the story. It was ⭐⭐/5 for me.
