This book is a great read. You see the story, as it unfolds, from many different perspectives, from Rajat’s mother to Karobi’s grandfather to the chauffer that works for Rajat’s family. Every new perspective brings another element to the story and reveals another cultural stereotype that must be overcome. I must admit that things get really bad for everyone in the book and it gets a little depressing. Hang in there because the end is worth the wait. Overall a 4-star rating.
