This book was brilliant. I read it from start to finish in only a few hours, I thoroughly enjoyed it and the life lessons and experiences it demonstrated within it.
The story demonstrated how Aman a working family man tragically loses his best friend, and starts to struggle with every day mundane life, but he is then magically saved by stumbling upon an old lady in the park. I feel as if this has great significance and correspondence to everyday life because it allowed me to see how your life may take a horrible turn, only for someone or something to turn up out of nowhere and turn it around again. Life is unexpected, and this story greatly explains this through Aman’s life.
My two favourite parts of the book are the poem at the end because it is a beautiful poem. And how Aman used his wisdom that he learnt from the old lady towards his sister when she also started experiencing work difficulties towards the end of the book. I do wish at the end of the book when we found out the old lady had tragically died, I got to know how Aman was feeling about it, but I understand that’s the point of a great cliff-hanger! Always wanting to read more!
