Book Review: Not Indian Enough by Sumati Huber

By -

Not Indian Enough written by Sumati Huber. This book falls under the contemprory fiction genre.

After a long gap, I decided to try a book from the women's fiction genre. I saw the book cover, read the blurb, and felt it would be the perfect cozy read for the winter season, so I picked it up.  

The main protagonist of this story is Sanjana, and the book shares her journey through life, as we can see in the blurb. The cover image of the book is a perfect representation and matches the main characters and the core of the story.

This book provides a contemporary women's fiction story with a humorous touch. Every small detail of the problems faced by modern Indian girls is discussed in this book, from their dress codes to how they are expected to behave within their families, especially in front of their parents. More than just a story, this book shares real-life experiences of Indian women—particularly the challenges they face when striving to be independent and modern, while also trying to satisfy the expectations of their traditional families. Most of the scenarios mentioned in this book are highly relatable, and many women can compare and relate to Sanjana's life.


This is a short book with just one hundred and twenty pages, and the narration is simple and easy to follow, allowing us to complete it in a maximum of two days. The word choices and vocabulary are also straightforward, so even a beginner can enjoy reading this book. The language used in this book is simple and humor-filled, giving me the feeling that I was chatting with a friend, and discussing serious real-life problems in a funny way.

 H ow did my book-reading journey started When I was a little girl I used to see lots of regional books filled the entire shelf of my dad's room. He is very generous and will always allow me to touch those books but I was not allowed with the pen or pencil into that room. Of course due to some damage control preservation. Whenever I enter that room the old book presented in that room will give me a warm hug through its dedicated book smell. So whenever I entered that room I used to sniff those book's wonderful smell and will open those books and there I could find the coffee-stained color inner pages. When I go through those books I used to see the small classic old ads for Pond's Powder Tin, Colgate tooth powder, Hamam soap, etc.   The small tiny black letters, the yellow stained pages, and the pencil art inbetween the novels all were purely nostalgic to remember.  Since my 7th grade I started to read my regional novels and then when I hit 9th the public exam pre-coachin...

INDIGO EARTH, the Golden, Satyuga, is very interesting and informative. What are the changes we expect to witness and How? Greetings. Indigo Earth is the Golden age. Mother Earth in its entirety is transiting into being the Indigo Earth. The changes are mentioned in the book. The answer to the ‘How’ makes it a guidebook. We all are an intrinsic part of this experience. The transition has begun. There are many who are like a guiding light, a light house, enabling others to transit. They are there. The transition is smooth sailing. 2. Spirituality, awakening, infinite consciousness, self-realization, nirvana are the terms which are associated with renunciation or s...

Tales of Unstoppable Women written by Dr Urmi Thakker . The idea of creating such a book is really appreciatable. The cover looks very impressive and the images given inside the book too. About the book: This book is not a fiction or regular storybook. This book is a collection of short stories and that too not a fiction one its about the women who struggled but succeeded in their life and fulfilled their dreams. The book has the total number of seven stories and each story are about fifteen to twenty pages. The story covers the women and her life from different levels and how she fulfilled the dreams. There are pictures of those dream winners by the end of each story and three self reflection was asked to their readers. To know more about the story and these questions please do read the book. My review: The idea of creating these kinds of a book with the picture is very good and inspiring. The narration is really good and in detail. Everyone will struggle with one point and w...
