Review:

From the writer of Accidentally Engaged, Farah Heron writes another romcom with a lot of South Asian references that made me hungry! From the biryani, momos, and the drinks that the main character Kamila serves to her friends on their Friday Bollywood movie nights, and the fashionable outfits that she wears, this book is full of colorful descriptions and good taste. The love story comes from a friends-to-lovers trope and is definitely a slow-burning-just-get-together-already one. Rohan, her childhood friend, forever helper, and dashing executive, is definitely an ideal boyfriend to have.

This book goes through a lot of topics such as unbelievable expectations of mothers to their daughters to insecurities, and love of one’s father. Farah clearly knows what she’s writing about. Kamila’s fun personality, love of dogs, party-planning expertise, and imminent intelligence and skills in accounting/financial planning are admirable. Oh— and watch out for the bonus recipes at the end of the book.
