About The Book

She Chose Herself is a tender and powerful collection of unsent letters, heartfelt poems, and quiet reflections written by Anaya Malhotra to Aarav Nayak—chronicling the fragile evolution of their connection from first spark to final silence. Through words never spoken, this book captures the ache of heartbreak, the sting of betrayal, and the soft but steady rediscovery of self-worth. At its core, it is a tribute to the woman who, after everything, stopped waiting to be chosen—and chose herself.
