Pretty typical romance but the scandal was the most scandal I have ever seen

Decent book, fluff read. Dating Dr. Dil was better IMO

This was okay. I don’t think I enjoyed it as much as book 1 due to the plot being kinda boring and maybe not my thing. Second half felt slow paced and quite draggy. I just didn’t care about the whole wedding planning stuff. I did like Bobbi and Bunty as individuals and thought they had a lot of chemistry and their pairing was lovely. They could just be open and honest with each other.

I think the representation was excellent as well as all the food and the food descriptions like yess. Prem & Kareena remain my reigning favs. I’m excited for Veera’s story though.

A fun romcom, celebration of Indian culture and weddings. A little mystery, HEA. I liked the friend group a lot. The romance moved a little fast—they flipped from “hating” each other to insta-love pretty quickly, and were apart for a decent amount of the story.
