I got an ARC in return for an honest review from NetGalley.

So I love this publisher, everything I  have read from them has been fantastic. This book is no exception. My main issue with the book is it doesn't go far enough.

The major plot is Nisha feels stifled by her parents. They control everything down to what classes she takes and what colleges she is applying for. So she starts to rebel. However, for how controlling her parents are they give in to her immediately. The conflict lasted seconds. I felt like that parents that  have that much control wouldn't give it up that easily especially from what I have seen in Indian families towards the daughters. 

The dating was pretty tame too. I didn't feel the connection. Both Todd and Nisha say they were into each other but too nervous to do anything about it. The issue I have is that Nisha immediately jumps into the relationship, barely knowing Todd. His race is barely addressed either. He is a white kid and her parents are vehemently against her dating, especially outside of her race. When her mother finds out about the relationship, she denies that they are anything but friends. Then a few pages later they are in a relationship and kissing in public. There is no real resolution to that plot line. 

The story reads quickly and is really fun. I love how the topics that the smart main character writes about are actually things that a smart girl would write about. It felt more authentic than just saying she was smart (though the plot around what she writes about also feels unfinished). 

So if you want to just read something fluffy and fun, this book is great. If you want plots that feel completely airtight, then I would steer clear. I was in the mood for fluff so I enjoyed the book and I can see myself reading it again.

Follow Your Heart Lorimer Real Love Tasha Nathan Books Reviews

I'm not sure there was anything original about this book. Honestly, most YA contemporaries aren't original--that's why there is a trope for every sort of love story. But I read them for the characters, for the writing, and for the oft included humor. I love seeing friendships and families and, of course, the guy. But for me to care, they have to be interesting and dynamic characters. And Nisha and Todd and co. weren't.
Review copy kindly provided by Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

I could not stop reading this book! I finished it in less than a day. Great if you’re in a reading slump! This will definitely pull you out. I wasn’t ready for it to end at all.
This is a uniquely & well-crafted YA contemporary read, & the first book I’ve read on this topic. I have never heard about the Tamil ethnic group, but this book educated me a lot and I’ve started doing some research because this book was so interesting. It was so refreshing to see a teenager combat prejudice, and sexism, she was a great protagonist with an attitude that should be instilled in more YA protagonists! I really enjoyed the headlines that you get with the start of each chapter; they fit into the story quite perfectly. This is a sweet love story that incorporates the conflicts of Tamil kids. I recommend to anyone interested in the struggles of Tamil teenagers growing up in a Western country. Cons the romance felt rushed, & the story wasn’t long enough. I enjoyed this book so much, & I really would’ve loved it even more if it had been a full length novel.
