I loved the honesty whilst reading this book, to see Muksan explore her culture, background and life choices was very cathartic.

At first glance, Muskan is a young woman who seems to have a few things going for her. Or at least, most of her challenges would likely fall under the rubric of a term she deeply loathes, namely "first world problems".

But there are any number of things Muskan doesn't understand: why she increasingly seems like the odd one out in her quartet of friends; why she is wasting her time on her dead-end "situationship" with Noah; why her relationship with her mother is so fraught; why she can't seem to get beyond the first date with the guys she likes; and why her family moved from India to America so suddenly when she was 10.

This is the somewhat angsty story of an Indian-American woman who is struggling to find her place in the world. It didn't really work that well for me, but I'm guessing it may well appeal to the target demographic depicted in the story.
