A review by katymaryreads
Pride, Prejudice, and Other Flavors by Sonali Dev
Did not finish book. Stopped at 25%.
1. I don't care about elaborate backstories for minor characters.
2. What Indian family is going to reject someone who is a renowned surgeon by the age of 32? Come to that, how do you get to be that good/renowned by that age.
3. You can't arrive in the USA and establish a viable business within a month, however many helpful friends you have.
4. (This was the one that made me - metaphorically - throw the book across the room.) You don't make a character British by making them say "bloody", "arse" or "wanker" every third page. Especially if you then make them use American terms like "sweater vest".
