First of all this is my first romance read that takes place in India and reading this book written by a self published author makes me even happier to review. Also as always I love seeing a midsize curvy fmc which stops making me doubt myself in the romance world!! Our female main character is also a doctor and through that we see more of Indian societal norms, whether it’s about the size of a person or a woman’s job. Another way through which we also see this is that the male main character has dyslexia and has been treated very badly by his mother throughout his raising. 

With these backgrounds, I loved reading about these two characters and how they fell in love with each other 

 

Btw the mmcs grandma is iconic and she makes the book much funnier! 

 

Even though I loved most of this book and loved how cozy it made me feel since it plays in autumn, I have to say that after the 80% mark, it started to draw out. This was also influenced by the third act break up, which I hate with my whole heart. 

 

All in all, it’s a cute romcom set in India and reminds me of my cute Turkish summer romances. Would definitely recommend.

First and foremost, THIS MAN! So so so hot! He has cats, is a doctor, uses glasses and has social anxiety and loves to communicate properly. What else would you want in a man??? Okay I don’t “want” him to have social anxiety but still!! 

Even though I’ve read a lot of romances and many feel repetitive the part I liked the most about this romance was how communicative the main characters were! There was no place for misunderstood feelings (aka miscommunication trope). It is pretty important to see since the fmc has autism and the mmc has social anxiety, and it just shows how people should communicate! Would definitely recommend for a fun and spicy time. 

so so many unnecessary descriptions of people and historical facts
