"Leonardo is a young man who is standing on a crossroad of life, facing choices. He has a few questions, questions that all of us have faced when facing choices that can change our lives. Does fate make a man, or do his desires? Do ambitions and desires actually lead a person to true happiness and fulfillment, or does providence and life changing events actually show a person the true path to follow? ‘Choices’ raises these questions, and attempts to answer them."
A Recent Review Of The Novel "Choices"
"Choices by Ruchira Khanna gives us a deep message that life is what we make of it, and that the consequences are the results of the choices that we make.
The story is about Albert and Leonardo, who at various phases of their lives are forced to either take the easy path or fight for what is right. And they make the right choice. But fate at times is cruel, still the close knit family brave the odds and tread the right path.
The story looks at the life of an adult as well as a determined teenager, who is on a fast track. As life throws challenges at him, he slows down, and weighs the pros and cons of the steps he takes to further his ambitious career, and finally chooses the right option.
I liked the unique setting of the story, the correctional facility for the convicts, where Albert is the warden. Amelia’s character is simple and supports both her husband and son.
The story is written in present tense, which takes a little time to get used to, since most of the novels are not written like this.
The technicalities apart, it is a profound story, which leaves one pondering over philosophies of life."

It was my pleasure to read Ruchira's most recent book, Choices. The characters were meticulously written, and Ruchira gave each one a believable life of their own. The words and format flowed nicely and kept me interested in how this story was going to unfold. It was a story in which I could relate to, as life does give us many twists and turns, with many choices in between.
