From Twinkle, with Love by Sandhya Menon
3.0

This was a fun book to read. It sort of reminded me of "To all the boys I've loved before" by Jenny Han in a way. But I did not really enjoy this book like I thought I was. When Dimple met Rishi was definitely a better book in my opinion. Though I like the fact that the main character Twinkle was writing letters to all the female directors that she admired, which added a nice touch to the book knowing that Twinkle wants to a filmmaker herself. The letters were cute and creative. On the other note the book was slowed paced and it did not keep me intrigued like I thought it would. The other main character Sahil was also a nice touch. When it comes to Sahil I feel like I had a better connection especially when it dealt with him and his brother Neil's relationship. When you have a sibling you always feel like they are trying to always one up you and to always take the spotlight. I personally have gone through that and so I relate more to Sahil than I did with Twinkle.
