I don't know from where to start and how ...
It has been a while since I had last read your ff and today, as I marathoned through 40 odd chapters from where I had left last time, I could not stop myself from writing these words to you...
It will not be possible for me to write a review of each chapter but believe me when I say that each of them is a mini treasure trove.. I gobbled them up,devoured them completely, relished them with ecstasy and shall forever cherish them with awe...
But I won't say that it is due to fabulous characterization, because :
"When writing a novel a writer should create living people; people, not characters. A character is a caricature."
"Ernest Hemingway
The depth with which you have delved into the psyches of Alya, Mukti, Ranbeer, even Navya (and I'm sure we will get insights into Dhruv's mindset soon too) is commendable...They are not props but living, breathing, and flawed human beings... the ones who I can relate with either in one situation or another, those who would behave like myself under a certain circumstance,,, the ones who have their own stories alongside that of Manan... You made me cry with Alya's confession.. You made me want to hug Mukti for her maturity.No story that I have read thus far have explored the depth of these characters so profoundly. They are as integral to the story as Manan are..
Thus your writing has one rare and not very often seen element to it : A SOUL...
Hats off to you..
Take care and keep writing...
P.S : Real life sucks. I have projects' deadlines knocking on my door,group assignments lined up, exams nearing like a hurricane travelling at a speed of 1000 miles per hour and a backlog that cannot be dilly-dallied anymore. So, I apologise in advance for disappearing till next time. But I shall always look forward to this story.
This story is your baby but I am already harboring motherly feelings for it... I do not know when is the next chapter exactly due or what would it look like once it sees the light of the day (or darkness of night even), but I already love it...
God Bless...
Till next time... Au revoir'
