Dava Shastri's Last Day by Kirthana Ramisetti

1.0

What a waste of my time! The premise started off as being very interesting, only to be filled with narcissistic, one-dimensional characters who are all so very self-involved and vapid. The author set this book in the year 2044, which added zero value to the plot; I guess it was an easy way out for them to having to actually research music from other past generations when looking back on yesteryears for the characters. Honestly, the book really read as though the author seemed to have gone to the Mindy Kaling school of writing, having the plot overwhelmingly filled with all(or mostly) Caucasian characters with only Dava as the central POC person, with her heritage peppered through just enough to satisfy some reader who would perhaps lap this up. Do yourself a favour and DO NOT BUY!
