The Shaadi Set-Up by Lillie Vale
2.5

Cute, but I didn’t understand why the resolution took so long. Way too  much miscommunication or zero actual communication, to the point it felt like I was reading about a house flip with a romance on the side. Rita was a great main character, except for her over dependence on dating apps and inability to start important conversations. No man in this book deserved her. Neil definitely is sexist for not helping in the kitchen.
Milan absolutely  did not show enough maturity or growth to win her back, despite taking so long to even try. Stop blaming yourself for the mistakes of your boyfriends, Rita!
