Customer Reviews

Not a fan

For the most part, this book was good. The premise was good, the flow of the story was good, the relationships was good. But honestly, I wasn't a fan. I think the main characters are something else. I especially don't like the main character. I get her point, but through the process, it was not a good time. I thought the love interest is great. I liked his premise about found family. And that's pretty much it.

A cute coming of age romance

This book follows the story of two Indian American teens named Madhuri and Arjun. Essentially they get their fates read and they can either choose to accept their fate or fight against it. Madhuri chooses to fight against her fate at first, while Arjun accepts it. This book definitely did a great job of demonstrating what it’s like to be a teen, especially one who grew up with Indian culture. Though Madhuri annoyed me at times with her constant fight against fate, I understand where she was coming from. With Arjun, honestly I was just mostly sad for everything he had to go through with his parents and his relationship with Madhuri. But overall he was a great character. This book did some romance, but it was not super heavy on it . It definitely leaned more towards a coming of age story than anything else, which is perfectly fine. If you want a cute, coming-of-age Desi romance, then this book is for you!
