When Dimple Met Rishi by Sandhya Menon
3.0

A super sweet story of two Indian-American kids who attend a coding summer camp. Their parents want them to someday marry and hope meeting at the camp will help spark something. Rishi knows about this plan and it's the only reason he is really attending. Dimple has no idea. Kismet ensues and we get a very nice YA romance.

There were stylistic choices that I personally did not enjoy and I often felt like I was reading an "after school special." Also, if you are going to an App creation/coding camp, I feel like more story should be spent talking about that as opposed to the MANY pages dedicated to rehearsal for a talent show involving a dance routine.
