Open Tabs  (English, Paperback, Isha Surti)

She built a career that was breaking her. She found a love that could save her. But first, she had to save herself. Ira’s life is a web of open tabs - unanswered questions, tangled memories, and a relentless pursuit of belonging in a world that refuses to make space for her. Set against the bustling backdrop of corporate Bangalore, this deeply moving novel follows one woman’s journey through ambition, burnout, and the fight for queer love in a society still learning acceptance. After months of sacrificing her personal life for a thankless job, a breaking point is inevitable. But just as she’s about to lose all hope, an unexpected connection offers a glimpse of a different future - one filled with art, laughter, and the promise of being seen for who she truly is. Faced with a choice between the career she thought she wanted and the life she might actually need, Ira must navigate corporate hypocrisy, complicated female friendships, and the terrifying, thrilling possibility of new love. Perfect for fans of contemporary women's fiction and heartfelt LGBTQ+ romance, Open Tabs is a powerful, intimate story about the cost of dedication and the courage it takes to finally close the chapters that no longer serve us. It is a resonant tale for anyone who has ever felt overwhelmed by their own mind and for every soul seeking a place to call home.
