I, Simeen Desai, am tired of making lemonade with the lemons life has handed me. 

Love is meant to heal wounds. 
Love was meant to make my world sparkle and spin. 
Love has ripped my life apart and shattered my soul. 

I love my husband, and he loves me. 
But Nirvaan is dying. 
I love my husband. I want to make him happy. 
But he is asking for the impossible. 

I don’t want a baby. 
I don’t want to make nice with Zayaan. 
I don’t want another chance at another love story.

My Review

Delving into the deepest emotional strings of a reader’s heart is an art. Falguni Kothari proved that she has mastered the act through her book My Last Story. From soul warrior to My last loves story, there is a huge variation in the genre as well as narration.

The story revolves around three best friends Simeen, Nirvaan, and Zayaan collectively called awesome threesome. Simeen, who had been madly in love with Zayaan ends up being Nirvaan’s wife. But, nothing changes the formula of friendship between them. How did it happen is something needs to be seen through the story. Good things always come with an expiry date. Her beautiful relation with Nirvaan gets affected when the news of his Brain Tumor reaches them. Dying Nirvaan make it more difficult for Simeen with his Titanic Wishlist.

A tragic yet happy story is a highly emotional drama. It would be difficult for anyone with a spouse or lover, or a loving heart to hold one’s tears. It would not be a exaggeration if she is called Indian Nicholas Sparks. The title of the story could have been different though. When I saw the title, I was expecting a filmy puppy love story but was surprised with the depth of the relations.

The story challenges the rotten quasi-morality. Read the story with an open heart and you will thank yourself for grabbing the book. With an exemplary narration, better editing, attractive cover and strong based story line, authoress came out in flying colors.
