Tastes Like Shakkar by Nisha Sharma
4.75
emotional funny lighthearted medium-paced

 NISHA!!! I loved Dating Dr. Dil last year, but I absolutely am a Bobbi/Bunty stan for LIFE. These two were just so fiery and headstrong and perfect for each other!

I absolutely adore Bobbi as the main character. She is so fierce in her love for her friends and family. She is a Type A people pleaser whose love language is Acts of Service. She also struggles with asking for help and OMG I felt so deeply for her!!

And Bunty!!! All the little ways that he showed Bobbi that he was thinking about her and taking care of her were just so top tier. (No spoilers, but find you a man that uses your geolocation for THIS)

The entire plot around them working together on Prem and Kareena’s wedding and all the hijinks that ensued was so fun. I loved the meddling aunties. And mostly, I just adore the clear love that Nisha has for her community and culture. It was such a joy to read about the food, the traditions, the family dynamics- everything!

Honestly, I cannot say enough good things about this book. And the way that I am already FOAMING at the mouth for Veera and Deepak’s story?!?! I loved the little tidbits we got with those two.

Thank you to Avon and Harper Voyager and NetGalley for an advanced copy of this book in exchange for my review.
