Présentation de l'éditeur
At the tender age of sixteen, Diksha is a typical teenager, juggling school, boys, gossip and fun with her best friend, until one day when everything changes. An innocent teenage crush leads to a string of irreversible events that change her life forever. Eighteen years later, Diksha - who was once a happy-go-lucky and carefree personality - is now a woman with entirely opposite traits. Married to a successful professional and mother to a young boy, she is a bored housewife wearing the mask of being happily married. An unexpected incident opens up avenues for Diksha to give her life a second chance and she creates a secret wish list in the hope of fulfilling her desires. Will she be able to brave this journey while dealing with the complexity of an extramarital affair? Will she be able to succeed in the quest to rediscover herself? The Secret Wish List is the journey of a woman towards getting her happiness back into her life. It is about dreams and aspirations, and the quest to find out whether true love exists or not.

An engrossing tale of an Indian Women who as a young girl has ambitions and her own identity. Yet, she succumbs to parental pressures and ends up getting married to someone she doesn't look up. She has an independent house, a smart kid, high earning husband and supposedly everything that typical conservative Indian Parents would call for in a perfect Married life. But there's definitely more to life. An identity for oneself, a relationship with your better half that gives you space to breathe and be yourself, a friend in a husband. These are the traits Diksha never finds in her husband. A sequence of events that lead her to realizing what she wants our of life and that gives birth to her "Secret Wishlist". The narration is beautiful and only an Author of the Caliber of Preeti Shenoy can put forth her ideas so flawlessly that you build an instant connect. Her style of writing hits you gently yet deep within, that you would want to get up and take charge of your life, married or unmarried, young or old, the novel will push you to pause and think if you are what you wanted in life. If not, it's time to get up and get going. Preeti Shenoy has a clear and lucid style of writing that keeps you gripped to the novel. I finished it in 3 hours straight and I am all charged up to take ownership of my life. --Megha Singh on 25 Dec 2012
One of the best books you would ever come across. The author is a born storyteller whose books top the bestsellers and her writings continue to inspire many.About The Secret Wish List, Captivating story line, realistic characters, a kind of narration that is bound to transport you to exotic locations, makes you feel heart warming true and deep friendship and care, an insight into the existence of few robotic humans.This is a story of how the protagonist Diksha gets to live a life of her choice after succumbing to parental/ society's pressure for over 18 long years. The story focusses on living rather than merely existing. The climax might not be so conservative but it sure is a feel good, happy ending.Do fill in the blanks and give life to your wishes --Harini on 14 Jun 2013
