As the cover suggests, it's a story of 3 people connected to a singer's life。 This book did not have strong characterization。 The reader can literally imagine themselves in the beautiful scenes of Goa and the words are just WOW !!

Stuti is such an amazing, inspiring author。 The book You Only Live Once? is just extra-ordinary and exceptional。 The way she weaves the story revolving around each character and the way they are inter-related is simply noteworthy and keeps it apart from many other stories。 Forgiving or Forgetting? Ephemeral or forever? Should you listen to your soul? Is time truly the healer? Is accepting reality the hardest? Does what you breaks you make the best out of you?
