So here's a collection of 34 real life incidents which the author calls candies and bubblegums. The good ones are like eating a candy and the ones that make you think and rethink correspond to chewing a gum. Neat! As far as the language is concerned, it's simply awesome...there are times when you burst out laughing thanks to her brilliant use of words. Given that she is an avid blogger, the final product does seem to be worth its salt. Then let's take a look at what is in store for us readers.
Right from chapter one, the author narrates incidents from her life which feature people close to her including her dad, her doting husband, her adorable kids, friends etc. These little stories may seem trivial yet they are sweet in their own special way :) I like the honest efforts she has put in to tell us what life is all about! There's a chapter dedicated to "What Women Want" and believe me, it's completely hilarious...followed by a retort from her husband which is funnier to say the least!
There's this prayer which she mentions after her stint in learning a two-wheeler. Here goes:-
"Oh God, grant me the courage to accept the things I can't change, to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference!" I really swear by this prayer!!
All in all, the book is a good mix of humour, honesty and innocence....a light read that leaves you with a positive feeling! Recipe for perfect five stars :)
