I really enjoyed this. It’s probably the ONLY book I’ve EVER read with a romance I could totally see myself in (Hijabi writer? Literally me 🥺) The only “flaws” were 1. The start was a little too slow 2. I felt like part of the issue was we were getting a lot of different POVs thrown at us at first but I super enjoyed the clever Muslim/Indian renovation to the classic Pride and Prejudice plot.
