I have read (and reviewed) a couple of books by this author, and I know exactly what you mean. There are things that I really like about her stories, but then usually the ending sequence or something else lets me down.

However, this does sound a little different from her usual, so I’ll try to keep an open mind.

I’m not too very fond of this author either. I’ve just read one book from this author to see what the hype was about and while I did like the writing style, the fact that the author is so full of herself all over her blog and social media and talks about her multiple talents piss me off. At times it is difficult to look beyond the person for certain things.

Having said that, the premise of this book sounds endearing and it would definitely make a breezy read.

I haven’t read a Preeti Shenoy novel until now. For me stories of young romance tend to get unexciting. But, this one sounds like anything but a romance, so I might pick it up some day!
Thank you for the review, Ramya!

I have read a couple of her books. The first one was nice and the second one was such a bore that I stopped reading her after that. But this one does sound quite different and perhaps something I would enjoy. Thanks for the review.

Thanks for sharing. Always good to find out about a book to know whether it’s fits to ones sensibilities to read.

I too have a love hate relationship with her booms. But glad that the new one is good enough. Will try to read this next year.

This sounds like something I would enjoy! Not one for romances so I have never really picked up her books but this one which sounds very ‘R.K.Narayan’-esque in theme is so up my alley. Bookmarking for Kindle buy early next year. Loved the review, Ramya!
