Language and Narration
The language is simple and easy to understand, no hard and fast rules on the plot been narrated but I felt that the narration is little bit wavery as it does drag up in certain areas starting from the middle of the plot.

What I Liked and Disliked
I did like the concepts described within the book as the author has tried to explain various happenings which usually happens in adulthood, before getting married and also the concepts of living together. On how the previous generation looks into it. The importance of parents opinion in marriage etc all these things are relatable in day to day life.

The narrative skill of the book is something which could have improved as I feel that the plot is beautiful and its only certain areas which are dragged upon to meet ends.
