I could not get excited about a short story with two 19 year old teenagers deciding about whether to get married someday. This whole thing read as forced as anything. If the author had aged them up by 5 years then I could have seen them having the “talk” about their future. Instead this short story made me dislike Rishi and I felt like the author changed up Dimple too in order to get to this HEA. 3.5 Stars. If you enjoy When Dimple Met Rishi, you’ll probably enjoy this novella follow up as well. Nineteen years old and in college, Dimple and Rishi have happily dated for nearly a year, but Rishi is super eager to define their relationship further. He’s nervous about where he stands with Dimple, is she really anti-marriage or is she anti-marrying him specifically? It’s always going to be a bit much for me to see anyone (even a truly sweet guy like Rishi) in a contemporary setting pushing for a promise of lifelong commitment at nineteen years old, I’m not sure that’s him really being as understanding and respectful of her desire for independence as he claims, but I did like how things worked out, plus the family scenes are warm and entertaining. näyttää 4/4 ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

HTML:Will Dimple and Rishi find their happily ever after? Find out in this funny, romantic, endlessly charming enovella companion to the New York Times bestseller When Dimple Met Rishi! Dimple Shah has a lot of opinions about marriage, but they boil down to this: It's not for her. Sure, she loves her boyfriend, Rishi, but why does she need to validate that with an institution that has historically never favored the woman? Why go through all that hassle? Rishi Patel deeply disagrees. He believes in the power that comes with combining love and tradition, and when the time comes, wants nothing more than to honor those things in a huge celebration with his friends and family. He knows Dimple loves him, but in hearing her rant about how marriage is a "construct of hegemonic masculinity" for the millionth time, a small, niggling part of him worries that it's not the institution of marriage Dimple has a problem with; maybe it's him. The two lovebirds find themselves at a philosophical impasse. Can they find a way to work it out, or does kismet have other plans? Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |

The Characters:
Rishi:
Dimple:
Ashish, Sweetie, Sunita (mom), Kartik (dad)
The Story:
I’m not sure why this is book 1.5 when it happens after There’s Something About Sweetie. Anyway, this is a look back to Rishi and Dimple’s relationship. They come to an impasse, a turning point that there will be no return from.
