Yours Sincerely, Misfit is Swati Bansode’s impactful debut release. The book is inspired by her real-life experiences and the struggles she faced once she stepped into the real world.   

The story revolves around the protagonist, Tara, a 21-year-old young adult who wishes to live life on her own terms but has no clue what she wants to do in her life. Tara takes a leap of faith and decides to move out of her parents’ house, and start adulting the only way she knows how to. She hates her job and is fighting against all odds to find her dreams only to lose herself in the process. Throughout her journey, Tara makes a lot of mistakes and ends up questioning herself. But she is unlike most people of her age who often settle for less than what they deserve and she wishes to create her own identity. 

This book is all about growing up, finding oneself and explains how crazy and wild adulting can be. It’s highly relatable and that’s what sets this book apart. Swati’s writing style is casual and bold, but remarkable. It is a well-plotted and excellently narrated story that keeps you hooked till the very end. Readers in their twenties will find a strong connection somewhere with the book. There are good takeaways too. The most important is to follow your dreams even if you don’t feel ready and to be patient with life. This book is especially for young girls like Tara who have it all in them but only need a little push to follow their dreams unapologetically. 

So grab a copy and join along Tara’s journey of finding her dreams and herself so she can stop feeling like a misfit in her own life.
