Tell Me How to Be by Neel Patel
5.0
Type of read: Commuter Read.
What made me pick it up: On a list of suggested books - I don't remember if it was through the library or Goodreads.
Overall rating: Absolute perfection. I loved 'Tell Me How to Be.' It was poetic and honest and real and quite literally made me feel like I was living alongside Akash and Renu. This is going to be one of those books that I talk about for a while and absolutely recommend with zero hesitation. The vulnerability and honesty are what make 'Tell Me How to Be' a pageturner. I could keep going on and on but it would just be me gushing about how fabulous of a book this is, how intuitive the writing is, how beautiful and tragic and REAL the writing is. 100 percent, you need to read this book.
Reader's Note: 'Tell Me How to Be' includes sex, violence, and cultural references.
Audiobook Note: Vikas Adam is an extremely talented narrator and truly made this audiobook a work of art.
