ONE WAY TO LOVE BY ANDALEEB WAJID

Top post on Blogchatter

The cover portrays a girl at a window perhaps looking for love.

BOOK DETAILS

Name: One Way to Love
Author: Andaleeb Wajid
Format: Hardcopy
Number of pages: 270
Availability: Amazon (Buy the paperback here or the kindle version here)
Rating: 4/5

TITLE & SUBTITLES

The title is a simple lovey dovey one.

LANGUAGE

The English language was simple though there were a few Indian or Bangalore specific words that non-Indians may not be aware of.

BLURB

The story is about a muslim girl named Tehzeeb and her journey as an independent woman of today. Even in this century, there are numerous expectations from Tehzeeb as a newly wed woman and none whatsoever from Ayub, her husband. The story shows us how Ayub handled issues in the house because he understands and respects his new wife. The love between the two will make you want to slap them sometimes, but love them nevertheless.

REASONS I LIKED THE BOOK

*It had a nice love story where misunderstandings and wrongdoings were corrected or forgiven because of the deep love between the couple in the story.
*I could relate to why Tehzeeb wasn’t able to call her mother-in-law ‘ammi’ until later in the story. It’s a dilemma for many daughter-in-laws in the world.
*It showed that even the worst fights can be forgiven by keeping our ‘pride-the mother of most broken relationships’ aside.
*It showed that when you believe in prayer, things will fall into place or happen for the best eventually.
*It showed that acceptance is the key.
*It shows us that in-laws can also apologise for their behaviour in order to make things better. It does not make them small or us big in any way. In fact, it solves a lot of problems and brings us out stronger and happier than before.
*It showed us that we all make mistakes and correcting them is totally up to us.
*It showed us that divorce is not the only option.
*The ending brought a smile to my face.

AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT

*Spotted some negligible errors.
*Personally, I’m not liking the use of the word ‘F***’ in LOVE stories however modern it may be. I’m not sure if it’s only me but ‘making love’, ‘attracted’, ‘caress’ are way more better words than ‘F***able’. Haha! Am I making sense here?

FINAL THOUGHTS

It’s a simple love story with twists and turns. I finished it in 3 nights! I loved that a lot of Tehzeeb’s inner feelings as a wife, daughter, sister and daughter-in-law (that no one ever talks about generally) are talked about here. I would totally recommend you to read this book if you’re a hard core ‘love story’ fan.

Let me know your thoughts on this book review.

    I love how this story came through. There’s so much emotions that was touched which truly touched me too. I guess what’s most great about this is that it’s a relatable thing which audience can relate to and get hooked on to read. Great one!

    This book seems to be in the classic romance mould. However, the romance seems to be set against the backdrop of contemporary issues and challenges. This makes the plot all the more interesting.

    Sounds like One Way to Love beautifully captures Tehzeeb’s modern journey as an independent Muslim woman, navigating societal expectations and Ayub’s supportive stance. A love story that tugs at the heart. Loved the review.

    Being a Bangalorean, I am sure I will enjoy reading this book both in slag and relatable. Your review is quite detailed and your analysis thoroughly deserves applause. Not so big fan of romance, but still I look forward to read this book.

    The story sounds interesting from the review. Personally, even I am a little against the “F” word as there are many ways to express it other than using this word. That being said I would love t read the story for the amazing content within. I’m sure it will be an interesting read! Let’s see how good it is.

    Seems like the story of any girl-next-door who luckily has someone better than the typical guy who loves, respects and supports her. And yes, I’m not comfortable with the F word in love stories/romance too. Takes the charm out of it I feel.

    I am done with the complete series of Jasmime Villa and found it much different and realistic love stories that the he meets she concepts which are very popular these days in the market… I dont know why. The points you highlighted in what you dont like section I agree with it but the reality is they are so normal in today’s world and to remain realistic with story might be author used it intentionally. Overall a fantastic and honest review. Loved it

    I read Book 2 in the Jasmine Villa series. The author has a knack for chick lit and keeps the settings and characters lifelike and relatable. I like the way you have highlighted the key words on why you liked this book. Relationships are complex, especially in the modern era. I feel Andaleeb does present this view lucidly.

    I am a love-story fan and I am getting my hands on this One way to Love by Andaleeb.. Romances have a way of buoying your spirit and we need that so much in our lives today.

    I had heard about Andaleeb’s work before as a great writer for romance novel and after reading this review post seems she has done a good job. agree, I also do not like use of offensive words in books and even in web series. It put me off and even great content become non appealing because of that kind of language. loved the review.

    Having published 40 books Anadaleeb Wajib is nothing short of a master of romances! The cover gives the impression of a light-hearted read too. I really like the way you reviewed it, closely analyzing not just the plot but the narration and characterization, a nice technique.
