It may feel good to be pretty, but the problem with being beautiful is that there are thousands of people who look like you. Ugliness, however, is unique. ------------------- One girl, a walking-talking example of contradictions -- ambitious but naive, kind but blunt, social but awkward -- is living in perhaps the most competitive society in this world. She has a dream, a fairly conventional and acceptable dream, one which every parent would approve of. Unfortunately, millions of others share this dream, and in order to fulfill hers, she has to eliminate her competition, literally. Throw in a fair share of drama. Friends and family, crushes and exes, decisions and choices, and the life story of an Indian teenager would be complete. ---------------------- The last few years of school are the most memorable; grades, stress and career mixed with friends, fun and dreams. But most of the time when we are planning our awesome candid picture-perfect life, we end up crossing the 'i's and dotting the 't's. ------------------------------------ COMPLETED ON JULY 14, 2018 Featured in the teen fiction reading list of Wattpad India!

HIGHEST: #6 IN HUMOR "Your command over sarcasm appalls me." "As does your ability to comprehend it." With a practically non-existent social life, extra study sessions at the best coaching institute in the city, a mind numbingly boring job and a best friend whose sole purpose seems to be getting her a boyfriend, Alankrita Sundar was content with the hand she'd been dealt. But when she receives a text from Ruhan Das, a boy whose very presence made her skin crawl, she realises that the bland oatmeal that is her life was in dire need of some spicing up. What began as a message sent to the wrong person soon turns into a twisted game of Guess Who, as Alankrita realizes faking an identity opens a lot of previously bolted doors- including one that leads to the darkest secrets of one of the most well-known students in school. The series of messages exchanged between Alankrita and Ruhan explore several aspects of each other's life, and through their shared experiences they realise that they aren't as different as they'd previously imagined.
