I just loved this book. I think I'm in a rom-com phase right now and I feel like reading these books, cause they make me feel good. I'm thankful that I got to read this one in advance, thanks to PRH International.
This book is beautiful in so many ways and one thing I loved the most about it is all the Indian culture that is present in this book. There are so many things I didn't know, that I had to google and therefore I got a little bit more educated on a lot of subjects. I love books that can make me feel good, but also teach me things at the same time!

I loved Niki, the main character. She's a woman in tech like me and I loved that about her! We need more books about women who are this cool. She's 29, she's still living with her parents, she lost her job and she decides to go to Mumbai and take part in her best friend's wedding. A rush decision that changed her life in so many ways. Niki's journey to Mumbai made me want to try all the delicious food she was talking about, visit all those beautiful places and have fun like her!

Niki is a strong character, even though she doesn't see it at first. But her journey in this book is so inspirational and it made me think of how many times I should've said “yes” instead of “no”.

If you want a quick, really nice rom-com, I highly recommend this one!
