Sonali Dev: Emma Project (2022, HarperCollins Publishers)

Review of 'Emma Project' on 'Goodreads'

3.75- this series continues to be creative & delightful. Occasionally the pacing felt too varied, and the MMC's project was simplified in a silly way. But there was a lot of love of all kinds in this book, and I was grateful for the sharing of it.

Review of 'What You Are Looking For Is in the Library' on 'Goodreads'

4.5 at least - fatphobia does not translate well to English audience. However, I was incredibly glad I found this book. It is it's own bonus gift.

Review of 'Pucking Wild' on 'Goodreads'

Occasionally identified with the FMC, and I appreciated both the age gap romance, and many of the themes. However, neither of the main characters were as compelling as any time the original foursome showed up, primarily Ilmari.
It's also overly long, again. Not sure if I'll read the last one, based on the teased premise.
