either i’m really petty or she just wasn’t angry enough because those half assed apology conversations would not be enough for me to forgive any of those people. definitely enjoyed the sweet bollywoodness of it all though.

Four Eids and a Funeral by Adiba Jaigirdar, Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé

the actual conflict was simply not that compelling for 300 pages of build up. the build up was extraordinarily long for a climax that fell short - but i fell in love with these cutie pie characters, and im biased towards a story like this. it took me forever to get into and read - i read this for 12 days but actual reading time was only 3.5 hours 😭 but it was sweet and a nice story.
