elizelizeliz 's review for:
My Sister's Big Fat Indian Wedding
by Sajni Patel
Netgalley ARC review
This book was somehow less than i expected. If you read the first two sentences of the description--"Zurika Damani is a naturally gifted violinist with a particular love for hip hop beats. But when you’re part of a big Indian family, everyone has expectations, and those certainly don’t include hip hop violin."--it feels a little bit repetitive. Like, it says both "hip hop" and "violin" in each sentence, and you are like, wow is that the whole personality for this character and the whole way the book will be structured? And the answer is, yes! It's really pretty flat!
But, i gave it 3 stars anyway because it was easy and sometimes fun to read, and i didn't wish i weren't reading it at any point. It's all fine, just... there's no there there.
