Guys, tonight I start "When Dimple Met Rishi" and at first I was super excited but now I'm kind of nervous after all the feedback I have been seeing. I'm going to go in with positivity though, so wish me luck!

Make your own decisions. Reviewing books after not finishing them makes no sense. Clear your head and read as you please.

Any time, Jecille. You're welcome.
I look forward to it as well. I would love to see more Indian protagonists in YA, especially after I fell in love with Anglo-Indian authors and characters--Arundati Roy's The God of Small Things and Aravind Adiga's The White Tiger are still a couple of my favorite books.
I take negative reviews with a grain of salt. I like to read books for myself and develop my own opinions about a book. I'm still excited to read this book and can't wait to read it
It was a cute, light, and fluffy read. Nothing too serious, I wouldn't say the plot was anything that extraordinary, but since both protagonists were Indian instead of typical white, it definitely gave the novel a fresh and new perspective.

I am def waiting to read from a new perspective. Learn more about other cultures through a cute contemporary.
I personally loved it! Hope you do too! ☺️
