A really cute fluffy book that made for a fun and quick read! I love supporting Indian authors and it was so inspiring to read about my own culture in a book. Representation matters! I also enjoyed the larger theme about sexual assault and how toxic victim blaming can be. This book handled themes of misogyny really well and made me really feel for Liya. Absolutely loved reading about a strong independent woman and how it’s possible to find someone out there who can handle what comes with loving a woman like that.
