I mean holy hotness Batman! (Yes, an actual quote from the book and I absolutely love it). With Dimple and Rishi being two teenage Indian Americans (and also being set up to get married while Dimple doesn’t even realize it), this is the type of book that will make you swoon. The book itself is set at a college campus in San Francisco where Dimple and Rishi compete together in a coding program for an app that they are developing. Mainly because my husband and I are complete opposites, so reading about opposites in relationships in novels always makes me happy. Dimple and Rishi couldn’t be more different, but I loved them so much. Not only does this book have a diverse group of characters, but it also deals with life within a family, the expectations that parents hold you to, and the ultimate love that they show their children.

And she’s all but invisible to her best friend, Tristán, a charming if faded soap opera star, though she’s been in love with him since childhood.
She’s a talented sound editor, but she’s left out of the boys’ club running the film industry in ’90s Mexico City. moreįrom the New York Times bestselling author of The Daughter of Doctor Moreau and Mexican Gothic comes a fabulous meld of Mexican horror movies and Nazi From the New York Times bestselling author of The Daughter of Doctor Moreau and Mexican Gothic comes a fabulous meld of Mexican horror movies and Nazi occultism: a dark thriller about the curse that haunts a legendary lost film-and awakens one woman's hidden powers.
