I am really loving this series. This one was a fun change of scenery being set mostly in India (or traveling there from London) and the courtship of these characters was unconventional which added to the story. This heroine wasn‘t my favorite, but I still enjoyed the story. #historicalromance

I'm not very good at the food portion of our #FoodAndLit challenge since I'm not a big fan of cooking and I'm a bit of a picky eater. I anticipate Cambodia having lots of seafood and that is not my jam. To make up for it, I've got a country overview, a memoir, a children's book, and an audiobook adapted for young readers all lined up.
