The Marriage Game by Sara Desai
emotional
medium-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? Yes
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? Yes
- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
3.5
PROs: Strong character development, diverse cast of characters, enemies to lovers trope, and lovable supporting characters (including overbearing friends and family members)!
CONs: Layla and Sam had very quickly-changing emotions which made it sometimes hard to justify their actions. Also, Layla's impulsive decision to switch from casual relationships to looking for a husband was confusing for me. The medium pace was sometimes hard to follow as I tend to favor fast-paced books.
