A Goodreads user asked Namrata:

You have published your work both in digital as well as print. Your experiences in these two media? Any specific outcomes with regard to readership?

Namrata The reader's appetite for e-books is still at a very nascent stage. The response therefore in that medium was very below average and not much encouraging. As an author one is bound to get disappointed due to this but that is where I would like to add that it has got nothing to do with your writing ability but the medium through which your book is reaching the readers.

While in paperback form there has been tremendous response. Be it reviewers and readers both. And that is where I guess you notice the stark difference. We still have a long way to go in the e-books market here as people still prefer paperbacks to them any day! ( Including me!) :)

The moment the book came in paperback I couldnt help but notice the change in the entire approach towards it.
