    A lovely read, although I did find some of the accents a little difficult to follow at times. Beautiful story overall!

  2. Harish A Kendrekar

    A charming read! Meena’s experiences are both funny and poignant. I enjoyed the cultural exploration but found some parts a little slow. Overall, a good book!

  3. Rishikesh Chaudhary

    I absolutely loved this book! The characters are so well-developed, and the story is so moving. A must-read!

  4. Dipesh Kadam

    I found this book to be quite enjoyable. The characters were well-developed, and the story was engaging. Though the book cover could have been better.

  5. Kavisha Sharma

    A heartwarming story of childhood and identity. Meena’s voice is authentic. Some of the plot points felt predictable. Still, a worthwhile read.

  6. Piyush Raj

    Beautifully written and full of heart. Meena’s journey is one we can all relate to. Touched on sensitive topics. Highly recommended!

  7. Aryan Arora

    A decent story with some interesting themes, but I didn’t find it particularly memorable. The ending was not clear.

  8. Pratik Vasant Kawade

    A wonderful coming-of-age story with a strong sense of place. I laughed, I cried, I highly recommend it!

  9. Anil Sandhu

    A delightful story of growing up. Meena is a great character, and the setting is vividly described. It got slightly boring towards the end.

  10. Ayush Rai

    This book was okay. I didn’t love it, but I didn’t hate it. The story was interesting, but the writing style was not very good.

  11. Shashank Pratap Singh Chandel

    A sweet and nostalgic read. It’s a bit slow-paced, but the characters are endearing. Could have been better written

  12. Devanshu

    Enjoyable, but not quite the masterpiece I was expecting. The writing is strong, and the characters are memorable. Some elements felt underdeveloped.

  13. Kashish Rawat

    I loved the characters, especially Anita. The story of growing up between two cultures was really well done. A few chapters felt a bit drawn out, though.

  14. Fathima Neslin

    I really enjoyed this book. Meena is such a relatable character, and the story is full of warmth and humor. There are a lot of characters.

  15. Himanshu

    A good book club choice! Lots to discuss about identity, belonging, and cultural differences. A bit slow in places though.

  16. Kushagre Singh

    I was captivated by the characters and the setting. The story is both funny and touching. The ending was not satisfactory.

  17. Kaustubh Manojkumar Hambarde

    A charming novel that explores the challenges of growing up in a multicultural society. I enjoyed the humor and heart. Not really my type of book.

  18. Alankrit Sharma

    A mixed bag for me. The cultural aspects were fascinating, but the pacing was uneven. I liked Anita and Meena friendship.

  19. Shambhavi

    An interesting exploration of identity and belonging. The characters were engaging, and the plot kept me hooked. Some part were less interesting.
