From Twinkle, with Love by Sandhya Menon

5.0

---

I absolutely adored this book. As a creative person who also struggles with self-esteem issues and often find myself comparing myself to "the greats" or even just my friends who appear to be doing better at life than I am, I really understood Twinkle's struggle. While this story was not written "for me" per se, I thoroughly, thoroughly enjoyed it. And Twinkle is right: there are so many people out there of various ethnic backgrounds, financial statuses, sexual orientations, races, genders, etc., who have stories to tell and whose voices deserve to be heard just as loudly as the White Men of Hollywood (TM).
