Heartstrings and Harmonies by Manali Desai is a compilation of 29 short tales that whirl around the theme of friendship, love, hope and life. Each story provides you with a broader view of life around us. Each story is paired with a Bollywood song which gives the reader a very unique experience & pairing songs with stories enhances the message that she wants to convey through the book.

I loved the way how she created the stories with unique messages and nail-biting endings. Some stories will make you smile some will break you from within and some will make your eyes wet. Throughout the book, I got synchronized with it.

The major drawback that I felt while reading was the underdevelopment of some characters and story plots. it felt sometimes that there is something missing in the story.

Overall. I liked reading it and it was a great experience with the book if you are looking for heart-soothing books then you can read this one, this will not disappoint you
