Cinderella with a twist!

Hey kitty is the story of Katyayani Shankar as much as it's the story of Misha, and their parents.. or like they say their 'parentals' which includes misha's mother - sushma and Kitty's father.
It is a story about second chances, about the sadness of loosing someone, coping with grief and also about those tough teenage years.
As katyayani moves to a new city with her father and his new bride and her new step sister, her world is uprooted. She has no friends, no mother, just her father whom she has to share now. And the worst of all is her step sister Misha who leaves no chance to make her life living hell.

This tale is full of emotions, at one point I wanted to hold Misha by her collar and ask her what her issue was. But the very next moment I wanted someone to hold her and Comfort her. I loved Kitty's character, she is basically me, but somehow she let's a lot of stuff happen to her.
Sometimes I wanted to shake kitty and wanted her to give it back to Misha and all the bullies.
I loved Ashar and Kitty's live story, it was warm and sweet. Whenever ashar was mentioned I smiled ear to ear because he was Kitty's happy place and somehow mine too! But he was a nerd and also the basketball captain!! A bit too much.. but I am not complaining, he seems perfect!

The engaging storyline and the beautiful illustrations keep the reader hooked throughout.
Though the book is great and explores a lot of human emotions. But at one point I found it losing the track and being a lot to take in. Though it still makes up for a quick one time read.
