This book was the pure fluff palate-cleanser I needed. Mini’s trials and tribulations to organise a Desi wedding for her sister was a real delight to read. There were so many details and wholesome family content that was included that really made everything feel so real; like Mini’s Etsy side-hustle of re-purposing vintage clothes, or her dad’s Bond Lotus car, and the shenanigans that their dog gets up to!

 

There’s some assumed knowledge of the Indian caste system and some Indian vernacular needed but nothing that a quick Google search couldn’t fix. Mini’s love interest added that little bit of extra drama to the story but it was still light enough that it didn’t over-shadow the main themes of Mini’s family relationships with her sister, father, deceased mother and aunty. 

 

Fair warning though, don’t read on an empty stomach; or better yet, made or order some Indian cuisine to eat while reading!
