The Sari Shop Widow (~)

I've finished another book. It's called The Sari Shop Widow by Shobhan Bantwal. It was an okay book. It kind of gave me a taste of Indo-American culture, which was cool. It was definitely more romantic than I expected so that made it difficult to finish because it had gotten so sappy at the end. It's also predictable, so that was also irritating. But it was a nice quick, no-thinking read, which is what I need at the moment.

Basically this novel is about an Indian woman who was a widow and was helping her parents at their sari shop in 'Little India' in New Jersey. Their store was going bankrupt, so her father called in his businessman brother to help bail them out. He arrived along with his young business partner, and it goes on from there. Secrets come out, and there's a definite attraction between the young business partner and the main character, etc.

Anyway, onward to other novels. Until next time, happy reading!
