Book Review of Serving Crazy with Curry

Serving Crazy with Curry
Bookfanatic avatar reviewed on


Crazy is right. The heroine in the story does something really life-altering that brings forth all sorts of family secrets. If you're interested in Indians or the Indian experience in America, you'll like this book. This book seems light like it's a chick lit book, but it covers very serious topics like disabilities, infidelity, miscarriage, marital problems, the immigrant experience, trauma and its effects, etc. The author sprinkles various non-English words (I think the words are in Hindi), but most are easy enough to figure out from the context. I found it hard to believe the older sister would forgive the younger one so readily, but perhaps she's a better person than me.
