had a hard time deciding what to rate this book, and ultimately decided on a 3/5. it's been almost a week since ive finished this book so i basically forgot all my thoughts, BUT i did love the discussion of the experiences of south asians in america, specifically upper middle class. i related hard to MC as an indian at times about wanting to fit in, and trying to find your place between two different cultures.
with this in mind, i feel as though the mistake the MC made was something i couldn't wrap my head around, and i feel like the author shouldve gone with something else. it feels completely unrealistic for the MC, based on his age & background, to be capable of that, and i'm not sure if the author has the right to decide whether the character it was directed towards would accept his apology? also, a lot of other events in the novel just seeemed so unrealistic ()
