Product Information

Zara Choudhury, comes from a Bengali background who still lives with her parents and grandmother in London. Sometimes I had to laugh because one of Zara’s dates turned so awkward (we have all been there), other times I desperately wanted to know how it continues because it felt so exciting (we have all been there too) and sometimes I almost cried because some dates, some break ups were so sad or humiliating ( we have all been there too unfortunately). As I read the book, I shared my insights, my predictions, frustrations and raucous laughter with Tasneem on watsapp. Zara’s quest of finding a perfect match, whilst also dealing with her meddling family and trying to decide what’s more important in a relationship: comfort or chemistry, was really interesting and also low-key relatable.

And even if it’s fiction I feel like it can influence the youth a lot and make them think that the way the main character approached marriage and finding a partner in this book is okay but it’s not. The author constantly put younger’s in a bad light by talking about how all they want is “boyfriends” and “hookups” when that’s not that case and a lot of the youth do want a pure respectful courtship and marriage.Perfectly Fine" as a "surprise song" at the Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh, as part of the Eras Tour. I was highlightinf sections and sending it to my sister's, laughing at the inside jokes, picking up all the funny things that our families do, it was just brilliant in that sense.

The ending felt rushed which was such a shame and I was so shocked when i turned the page to see ‘epilogue’ and realised this book wasn’t going to have the closure or i’d expected and it seems as though this is a standalone as well so i’m not sure i’ll get that satisfaction.Whilst it’s more common now to remain single or marry much later, first-generation parents are often conflicted and find this hard to accept.
