An easy read about how it only takes one persons belief or help or positive influence to completely change a persons life. A story of someone finding themselves and of the effect it has on the life of the person helping them. I really enojoyed this, even though I found it an easy read, it touches on alot of important issues around self awareness and self love. I loved Lakshmi and was devastate at the twist with her character but I love how this curved into what was me too to be will be story. I also loved Lakshmi’s over the top problem resolution methods, alot of the time they are ridiculous but that just makes her more lovable to me.
