I wanted to rate this higher bc overall I did really enjoy this book. I loved the representation of Indian diaspora culture, the accurate depiction of dating apps, and the food descriptions. But that being said, this book needed a better editor. I can usually get past a few typos/errors but this book had many and it really took me out of the story. They were small but still bothered me - stuff like "Johnnie Black Label" but it's Johnnie Walker Black Label, or getting a song title wrong in the Taylor Swift playlist at the end of the book, or inconsistencies like stating a character sits down even though, according to the page before, they were already sitting. Some of the writing also felt clunky to me, and I expect that to happen in the parts where diaspora culture is explained but I don't expect it to feel clunky in the romance aspect of the book. The resolution also felt very rushed. Overall an enjoyable read but could have been so much better
