This story is wry, witty, self-deprecating and fantastically funny. It manages to subtly lampoon literary pretension, nerdistry, cultural prejudice, and higher education all while telling an adorable love story. I usually hate adorable love stories, but these characters are so flawed, peculiar, and beautifully human that they won me over instantly. It's also a great social commentary as we get to watch western literary ideals clash with Bollywood and classical Indian culture. There is a heck of a lot going on here, so don't be fooled into thinking that this is a one-dimensional teen love story. No way. Can't wait to read more from this author!
