felt a lot more emotional to me than the first book i loved how it brought lost family members back together and showed that many people who seemed evil actually had reasons for what they did it made every character feel deeper and more human i really liked that sati had her own journey this time and that her story revealed something so important it tied everything together so well i also enjoyed the way shiva and his group traveled across india facing different challenges it made the world feel bigger and more alive and i absolutely loved the love story between parvateshwar and anandmayi it was another example of how old traditions can be broken for something real overall the book kept me hooked and left me in suspense i can’t wait to see what happens next
