Publisher's Summary:
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.

A Lifeline For Many
I say it so often, âLife is what you make it.â This book is a lifeline, literally, for people experiencing deep despair. But it is also useful for others, who are just disgruntled or dissatisfied. It needs work on every level to make your life, such a precious one-time gift, the best it can be. Hard work will bring total satisfaction.
An excellent book, that I highly recommend.
Opposite of an engrossing read if there is such a thing!
Very poor editing on Kindle edition of the book. It's very badly written book about a good subject. Since Ms Shenoy is a best selling authour of some note, I suspect she wrote it for charity maybe. There is no cadence or flow to the language, doesn't capture anything it's trying to say, still it's laudable simply because the subject is mental illness, a topic most Indians at least of my times avoid talking about! I do intend to read this writer to see if my theory about this book being some kind of gesture is true.
Love and time is the greatest gift one can have!! Awesome..
I liked the book..many things written in the book touches heart. .inspires to look within, be strongly remain down to earth, enjoy the each precious moments of the loving life..and beautifully explains the hollowness of pursuing a materialistic path berift of passion..eggs to pursue ones passion making everything insignificant..
A Decent Read
*spoilers ahead*
It is a good read which starts like a typical life story of an Indian teenager and gradually develops into something more. A great effort by the author to try and explain something like bipolar disorder in simple language.
