I'm not sure what I thought of Holly Jolly Diwali. It was a very cute holiday romance and it played to its tropes exceedingly well, but I didn't love it. It was beautiful, with wonderful descriptions of India, though I would have loved a glossary. After being fired from her data analyst job Niki decides to go to India to celebrate her friend's wedding. There, she meets Sam, and it's the start of a beautiful friendship, followed by a holiday fling. Until... well, read and find out.
