» Seventeen Takes - Naima Kalra Gupta
"Seventeen Takes" is a mix of fiction and non-fiction about everything a teenager experiences. These experiences range from growing up to formulating a self-identity to realising who you are. Written by a 17-year-old, this is a coming-of-age book but not in a traditional sense. It's not about heartbreak or enduring friendships or alcohol and partying. It's about the self, the war that wages within all of us.
Figuring out what to do with one's life, lamenting the loss of innocent childhood, coming to terms with changing beliefs and ideals, and developing new ideas are themes that feature prominently in this collection. Simple yet poignant, fiercely individualistic yet easily relatable, "Seventeen Takes" is a book that will resonate with everyone on the cusp of adulthood.
