This is another one that I know made its way here from the library in hard copy and I took it back. I enjoyed the audio very much, especially because there are many names and words in other languages I never would have been able to pronounce in my head! I enjoyed the strong female character drive plot. I kind of wanted a romantic storyline to be tied up at the end but we can't always get what we want. I could tell about halfway through where the story was going and usually that annoys me, but I was content to root Lakshmi on to her destiny.
