I had really high expectation when I picked this up and, of course, I was initially disappointed . I eventually started to enjoy these short stories because each has fully developed characters experiencing mini dramas . all the stories take place in the same town and a few of the characters pop up in multiple stories . I ended up liking this and appreciating it for what it is - a thoughtful, sweet, well written collection of short stories on the Indian channel by the same name where these stories are brought to lift . She has been watching it for a while and always thought they were true stories .
