This book is basically two stories in one.
In “The Proposal,” Akshay and Poojah marry and divorce 48 hours later, shirking their Indian heritage tradition. Off the bat, I ask why.
In “Remembrance,” Rose is making funeral arrangements for her dead father and is re-acquainted with a sister that’s been in an accident.
First of all, I failed to see the connection between the two stories. One was clearly a multicultural romance and the other was loaded drama. Clearly, the stories were supposed to have an emotional impact, but I found them daunting and tedious with mildly forgettable characters.
My rating: 2 stars
