But the cool news is, you are on your own now” The fear of loneliness has been injected into our minds since we were kids. We have learned that the kid who eats, & sits alone, and has no friends is pathetic. In every book/movie, the kid with no friends is always featured as a weak character who needs to be saved. No one wants to be seen as a ‘weirdo’ hence, our dread of being alone. We don’t want people to think of us as unwanted or not fitting in with the cool kids. We don’t want people to think that no one chose us. So what do we do? We start becoming like an ideal version of whom everyone loves. And in the race to achieve people’s acceptance and love, you lose yourself. But enough is enough. The book is divided into two sections. The first section is about transforming loneliness into solitude. And the second section is about using your solitude to turn it into your growth period. If you are ready to transform your perception around loneliness and achieve your goals using your ‘alone time’ then welcome to ‘The Art of Being Alone.’ Review: The book relatable to you - I can't express it.

Must read 💯 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Understanding real life situations *by K***R on 29 May 2026* Very good book as it shares about the life of a person who is an introvert, who can understand their pain and who is more confused about themself present in the real world situations. This book motivates us so much on how to handle ourselves in our whole life journey. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A young Indian author? Way to go girl!!! *by S***A on 8 July 2024* I bought this in the month of April just in a whim because I wanted to try something new. My eyes landed on this book. I came to know about Renuka Gavrani who's an Indian author. A very new one into the writers' world. If you are seeing the reviews then it means you're uncertain whether you should invest on this or not. So, I'll keep it in points for you so that you can decide whether you should buy this book or not. 1) The book cover. It's fresh, sleek and minimalistic. The front cover image is taken from a company I think. One of the reputed companies who sell their stock images. However, even being simple the cover is really appealing. The quality of the pages were good too. I don't regret my investment. The text font is big enough and easily readable. The font style is good too. So, 1 star for this. ⭐ 2) The book is about loneliness. How people with no friends live in the society. How introverts feel when they have no friends. It tells you about how you should turn your alone time into your growth time. You being alone isn't loneliness. Loneliness is when you can't find yourself. I loved this quote. The author tells you how to cope up with the remarks you get from people and how to spend your alone time without overthinking. She tells you how you should remain unaffected by society's ill behaviour towards you. Funny thing is - I'm not even an introvert. I'm an ambivert. :⁠-⁠P However, I don't agree with her in certain points. She went to a little 'extreme' side of the loneliness while exploring!? According to her, a person can do anything alone and one doesn't need any people around him/her. I find this incorrect. People need people to exist. Imagine yourself in a world where there are no people. Just you alone. Would you survive? I don't think so. At a certain point, you would probably go crazy. We need people around us. The thing which I agreed with her is that how you can utilise your alone time for your growth. And, how to live alone if you're moving out of your town for your job or any other purpose. That's the point where she shines. Also, the book isn't very long. It won't tell you same thing time and again to make you feel annoyed and irritated. If you have time, you can even finish it in a day's read. It's hardly around 120 pages. (Counting only the ones which should be read.) Again, one star for this. ⭐ 3) The author is very young. She might be younger than me or the same age as mine. It's not an easy decision to be an author when you're coming from India. Not indicating that being an author in India is hard. Just hinting that the public tend to go for medical, engineering fields more generally. (Which isn't good tbh.) So, amidst this she found her field and decided what she has to do is laudable enough. One star for her wonderful journey ahead. ⭐ 4) The language is super easy. She wrote it in a very easy manner. You won't face any sort of problems while reading it. The writing style is catchy and it draws you in. Simple yet elegant. ⭐ 5) Here comes my last star which I didn't give it to her. The writing style is indeed very pleasing. However, being a not so experienced writer comes with the cost too. She's at a stage where she's learning. And, she has what not to see in this huge world. So, a little amateurish vibe is there in the writing style. By the way this is coming from a reader who has read more than 50+ books including self-help books and the fantasy ones as well. I can definitely say that writing style right now needs to be polished. I will leave an image for you to see how the writing style can tell you about the age of the author. She needs to focus on her writing. The more she'll write the better she'll become. There are sentences and words which shows that it's written by a young author. No problems with that. She's in a growing stage. More power to her. May her writing style get more refined and polished. Dear author, you must snatch this last one star from me in your any other upcoming books. But for now, I'll keep this with me. ;⁠) Conclusion? Buy it if you want to explore something new. We should support our young authors. She has potential. The book isn't very expensive too. And, it certainly delivers the content on which it's written on. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Art of Being Alone: Loneliness Was My Cage, Solitude Is My Home - The Art of Letting Go: Stop Overthinking, Stop Negative Spirals, and Find Emotional Freedom (The Path to Calm) - The Let Them Theory: A Life-Changing Tool That Millions of People Can't Stop Talking About --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/587615046-the-art-of-being-alone-loneliness-was-my-cage-solitude](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/587615046-the-art-of-being-alone-loneliness-was-my-cage-solitude) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-06-06*
