I have been wanting to read history, specially India’s history for a long time now. And what better book to start it from than this! It was the perfect book for me since I have been born and raised near Delhi. I went to a college in Delhi. My mom is from Delhi and Delhi is just a part of our lives, always has been. Getting to know the history of the places we had visited in our childhood felt so exciting! And about the people who lived in this place. My family are immigrants too and I have heard stories about partition from them. Reading this book after Twilight in Delhi was an even better experience. I am just glad that the first book of 2023 turned out to be a 5 star!
