Lucky Everyday: A Novel by Babsy Jain

Lucky Everyday: A Novel by Babsy Jain is a wonderful tale of love, passion, trust and betrayal

My Book Review Rating: 5 stars – a reminder that you should always find strength from adversity

It’s not everyday that you pick up a book that appears on the surface to be about a woman teaching yoga to prison inmates. While that premise sounded interesting enough this novel was so much more.

When the novel opens we meet Lucky Boyce, an accountant by profession who has moved to New York, and has volunteered to teach yoga to inmates at the nearby prison. As the story unfolds we learn that Lucky is perhaps the most ironic name anyone could have given this young woman, for her past is wracked with duplicity and betrayal.

In this beautifully written, enlightening and inspiring novel Jain charts the course of Lucky’s life, from her college romance to the man who swept her off her feet. We learn of the trials and tribulations that have befallen her, and her struggles to succeed in a world where everyone seems set on destroying her.

The novel is packed full of twists and turns, mixed in with love, passion, betrayal and intrigue. From the intriguing beginning right through to the shocking – but satisfying- ending you’ll be swept away on a roller coaster of bizarre events that make this novel unlike anything else I’ve ever read.
