About this listen
What would you do if destiny twisted the road you took? What if it threw you to a place you did not want to go? Would you fight, would you run or would you accept?
Set across two cities in India in the early '80s, Life Is What You Make It is a gripping account of a few significant years of Ankita's life.
Ankita Sharma has the world at her feet. She is young, good-looking and smart and has tonnes of friends and boys swooning over her. College life is what every youngster dreams of, and she also manages to get into a premier management school for her MBA.
Six months later she is a patient in a mental health hospital.
How did Ankita get here? What were the events that led to this? Will she ever get back her life again? Life has cruelly and coldly snatched that which meant the most to her, and she must now fight to get it all back.
It is a deeply moving and inspiring account of growing up, the power of faith and how determination and an indomitable spirit can overcome even what destiny throws at you.
A tale that is at its core a love story that makes us question our beliefs about ourselves and our concept of sanity and forces us to believe that life is truly what one makes it.

It's an experience..
I actually lived this book. I could relate to it. It's so beautifully written and narrated that one can actually feel the emotions. It's a very dark subject but it's been written with positivity. Kudos to both the author and narrator.

Accepting the fact of not being okay in hard way
Once I started to listen to it, I wanted to finish it as soon as possible just out of curiosity. A simple story explains to accept the inner volcano of not being okay before everything starts collapsing around.

Quite captivating
I have smiled, I have laughed, I have sobbed and I have Cried. This book took me through the entire journey of falling in love to bearing the agony heartbreak. To feeling numb to almost destroying your life. Everything that I have personally experienced. The book was quite captivating and I can't describe how many times I actually cried
Definitely worth reading or listening.

Inspiring, Heart touching
I generally listen to self-help books, and read novel. This would be my first novel to listen. I could say that the story narration was awsm and it's more than a story. The author described the characters and the scene in such a realistic manner that I can still picture the characters and the scenes. The pain, the love, the life experience of the characters are so lively. One should give it a try, no doubt they will love it.
The best part is I could even relate things from the my life.
loved it listening 😊
