pickZara has a larger-than-life personality while Jay is much more reserved. Zara promises to find Jay his perfect match while they both dodge the meddling aunties during the wedding season.
Zara was a bit much at times but overall it was a cute opposites attract romance.
pickA fun opposite attracts rom-com. An easy read, perfect for a chaotic holiday week. I really liked Zara, she‘s someone I‘d like to be friends with.
Book 5 for #dashingdecember
The start of my February TBR:
Roll 1: The Singles Table by Sara Desai
Roll 2: The Winter People by Jennifer McMahon
Roll 3: Elsewhere by Alexis Schatkin
#Roll100 is definitely helping with my #ReadOffMyShelf challenge.
I also set-up my TBR spreadsheet to randomize the titles. So each month it will be a surprise which ones will be that month‘s #roll100 & #bookspin 😀 I do love a good spreadsheet!
so-soZara is that obnoxious acquaintance who brags so loudly in mixed company about her sexual exploits that you suspect she actually never gets laid, but she grows on you. There are some very funny parts about absurd levels of competitive matchmaking by families as Zara tried to avoid any commitment at all, but the overall cheesiness of this rom-com made it a so-so for me. There is even a desperate airport love scene 🤢. #foodandlit #india
A day late for #india #foodandlit but wanted to share this horrifying, cringey moment when MC Zara's dad presents some random young man for inspection at a wedding celebration. I realize you get used to the culture you are brought up in, but if I had experienced 1/100th of the pressure to marry from my family as the people in this book, I would have moved across the country upon turning 18 and never come back. So much meddling!
Went rogue at work (again) and while I was at it, decided to finish off my day by opening a box of fiction and prepping it for accessioning tomorrow. Obviously I now have more books on my tbr 😳
This cover is so pretty!
pickA great enemies-to-lovers story full of nosy Aunties and well meaning cousins. Zara is the life of the party and Jay is seriously into brooding. This is one of the few times where I did not crush on the hero. I wanted to be besties with Zara. Jay was cool and all, but she brought joy to those around her by being bold, smart, and witty. I loved the twist of her being in matchmaking competition with the old Aunties. Fun conclusion to the series.

#bookspinbingo board is ready to go! This is the first month I've added options for more mood reads and, of course, those numbers have been selected for #bookspin and #doublespin. So, I am unable to announce any titles, but I am very confident that I will be able to complete this month's challenge. (I see many unplanned romance novels in my future.)

pickLoved it more than book 1, but not as much as book. Still fun, but would have lived a bit more of an update on Layla and Daisy.
