🏠 [REVIEW]
The novel has a good plot but the language is a little difficult to understand. Narrations and descriptions are smooth and well written. 
The book provides so many twist and turns with the ideas of middle-class urban happiness. What I really like is the struggle of these couple to have their own house in a big city like Delhi is well descried on the basis of reality.It reaveals the deepest desires of our hearts.
Not to forget that both Bengali and Punjabi cultures have been blended throughout the book. Additionally, the author presents the problems of the couple stumbled upon their personal life.
Cover is good, but could have been better. Title is quite unique.
One more thing that I really loved was, I came across so many new words while reading this book.

Overall, it is a good read.
Recommended for contemporary topic readers.
