Genre: Romance
Book Type: Paperback

I enjoyed this book very much. It seems to be an accurate account of what goes on in the lives of Indians residing in the States and their families back in India who want them married, as well as how love can bloom in an arranged marriage. I liked the cultural details and the humor, as well.

I read the book in a very short time, as I kept returning to it to see "what happens next," and letting the other books I had begun wait (I always have several going at once.) This is a book with a pleasant aftertaste, too--something I appreciate more and more these days.
