irraya 's review for:

A Bollywood Affair by Sonali Dev
3.0

Most popular Indian books are historical or intellectual. Contemporary books were either too Indian or too Western. This book balances that out nicely. It was a cute romance, and the bits and pieces of Indian life were fun to read about.

There were a couple of scenes towards the end of the book that I really disliked, and made me like the book a little less. The ending felt very melodramatic. I felt like it had turned into a soap opera. I was both amused by the humour, and the ridiculousness of it all.

I think I might check out some other books by her. It was a fun read, and I haven't come across any good Indo-Western books that I've enjoyed.

Audiobook - I liked this narrator. She had a pleasant voice, and didn't have an Indian accent for the whole book, only for a few characters.
