This book wasn't bad, and I wouldn't say I didn't like it, but I didn't necessarily enjoy it either? The romance was lackluster and too immediate for me, and while I applaud Niki on breaking out of her comfort zone, it felt too forced for me. The audiobook was alright, but I didn't feel it added anything new to the story, and I wasn't excited to keep listening. There were a lot of pop culture references and they felt too unneeded for me.

It was definitely nice to have a holiday romance that wasn't about Christmas, but I wish the focus had been less on the (very weird) group honeymoon and more on Diwali itself, or even more on the wedding itself. I don't know. Sam was okay, Niki was okay, Diya was okay, Masooma was okay. It was all okay.
