ETA: Editing a bit as I wrote more about the book in RF BoTM discussions than here (where necessary).

As much as I liked the flow of language, Draupadi's 'obsession' with Karna was a bit too much to handle, especially for someone who was portrayed as a strong and capable woman. This goes overboard in the second half. It feels more like the author's voice and her love for Karna than Draupadi's. It's a thin line between presenting the character's voice and channeling our own through it. Will backfire in the case of established personalities.

The ending seemed filmy as if saying all is well. Too much Bollywood-style drama (I remember I rolled my eyes when reading it).
