A review by katiemack
Unmarriageable by Soniah Kamal
4.0
I received a copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
The writing was a little clunky in places, but overall I really liked this retelling! I think it translates well to modern Pakistani culture, and I appreciated the way the author takes on gender politics.
Also, unlike some reviewers, I thought the author's naming her characters based on the original Pride and Prejudice (e.g., "Darsee" for Darcy) was hilarious.
