About the author

Sonali Dev’s first literary work was a play about mistaken identities performed at her neighborhood Diwali extravaganza in Mumbai. She was eight years old. Despite this early success, Sonali spent the next few decades getting degrees in architecture and written communication, migrating across the globe, and starting a family while writing for magazines and websites. With the advent of her first gray hair her mad love for telling stories returned full force, and she now combines it with her insights into Indian culture to conjure up stories that make a mad tangle with her life as supermom, domestic goddess, and world traveler.

Sonali lives in the Chicago suburbs with her very patient and often amused husband and two teens who demand both patience and humor, and the world’s most perfect dog.

This took me a bit to get into, but once I did I really enjoyed it. I especially like the fluidity of the Elizabeth and Darcy roles. Both DJ and Trisha had elements of the characters. That kept the story fresh.

I will likely read more in this series.

No spice. Minimal language.

This was a rekatively entertaining read but also really frustrating. I don't think Pride and Prejudice or any retelling of it isn't really my jam. The egos and lack of communication irritates me more than it entertains me. However I do think that anyone who does like Pride and Prejudice would enjoy this multicultural spin to a classic.
