I received this book for free from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.10 Things I Hate About Pinky by Sandhya Menon Published by Hodder Paperbacks on July 21, 2020 Genres: Contemporary, Fiction, Romance, Young Adult Pages: 368 Format: E-Arc Source: Netgalley Buy on Amazon Goodreads The follow-up to When Dimple Met Rishi and There’s Something about Sweetie follows Pinky and Samir as they pretend to date—with disastrous and hilarious results.

Samir Jha might have a few . . . quirks remaining from the time he had to take care of his sick mother, like the endless lists he makes in his planner and the way he schedules every minute of every day, but those are good things. They make life predictable […]

From Twinkle, with Love by Sandhya Menon Published by Hodder & Stoughton on May 22, 2018 Genres: Fiction, Young Adult Pages: 330 Format: E-Arc Source: Netgalley Buy on Amazon Goodreads Aspiring filmmaker and wallflower Twinkle Mehra has stories she wants to tell and universes she wants to explore, if only the world would listen. So when fellow film geek Sahil Roy approaches her to direct a movie for the upcoming Summer Festival, Twinkle is all over it. The chance to publicly showcase her voice as a director? Dream come true. The fact that it gets her closer to her longtime crush, Neil Roy—a.k.a. Sahil’s twin brother? Dream come true x 2. When mystery man “N” begins emailing her, Twinkle is sure it’s Neil, finally ready to begin their happily-ever-after. The only slightly inconvenient problem is that, in the course of movie-making, she’s fallen madly in love with the irresistibly adorkable Sahil. Twinkle soon realizes that resistance is futile: The romance she’s got is not the one she’s scripted. But will it be enough? Told through the letters Twinkle writes to […]
