Book Review - 

Start Living Again penned by Saranya Umakanthan is an adeptly crafted narrative that delves deep into the intricacies of life's trials and triumphs, offering readers a poignant exploration of strength, redemption, and the enduring power of love.

At the heart of the story is Ananya, a young woman determined to carve out her own path in a world where expectations and traditions weigh heavily upon her. 

Despite facing relentless opposition from her father and setbacks that threaten to shatter her dream of becoming a filmmaker, she remains steadfast in her pursuit of success. Alongside her is Anshik, a figure from her past whose unexpected return brings both solace and turmoil.

Saranya Umakanthan's storytelling prowess shines through as she navigates the complexities of Ananya and Anshik's relationship, weaving a narrative that is as heartwarming as it is thought-provoking. 

Through moments of despair and uncertainty, the characters' resilience serves as a beacon of hope, reminding readers that even in the darkest of times, there is always light to be found. 

One can resonate with the characters and story deeply as the struggles faced by the main leads mirror the experiences of many, making their journey one that is both relatable and inspiring. 

As they both confront their pasts and their feelings, readers are encouraged to reflect on their own lives and find soundness in the face of adversity.

While the plot may unfold at a leisurely pace, it is this deliberate pacing that allows for a more nuanced exploration of the characters' sentiments and motivations. 

While some may find the prolonged denial of feelings frustrating, it ultimately serves to highlight the complexity of human connections and the often tumultuous journey toward self-discovery.

Overall, it is a fast-paced and engaging story that reverberates with zeal and hope. If you're in search of a story that inspires, uplifts, and represents profound attachment then this book is for you. I recommend it.
