BOOK REVIEW:
" Do you even know what depression is like? Have you been through it? It's not being sad for some period and then waking up feeling okay. It's to sleep everyday feeling you're worthless. It's to wake up the next day and feeling there's nothing good enough in the world to stay. It's to go through the day without any motivation of living. It's to feel your head explode with all the demons screaming inside it. I've seen her, I've been through it with her. I understand what she's going through but you obviously don't. So, don't judge her and don't say I'm depressed. Because I'm certainly not and I don't even want to be. It aches me even looking at what she's going through. Believe me, buddy, it's the worst you can have in your life."

WHAT I LOVED THE MOST IN THIS BOOK:

  • I loved how Author has done a brilliant job by writing about this patient Snow, who is suffering from a Bipolar disease and how society treats such people with mental illness and look down upon such people who need our care and love the most.
  • I absolutely loved how Archer tries to read her mind when she herself is not in a condition to know her mind, I loved how he understands her pain and all that stress that she is going through.


  • Archer proves to be an ideal lover or I would say an ideal human being who never leaves his true love in difficult phases of life.


I liked the writing style of the author. The cover is impressive and the title Bittersweet is apt.

RATING: I would like to give this book 5/5 STARS for the excellent story.
