Sumi’s parents had done their best. Her absurdly high intelligence had been clear as soon as she learned how to speak. They’d put her in the best schools for gifted children, but she still found them dull. They went deeply into debt to hire tutors just to keep up with how fast she learned. Soon she would be able to repay them. And build the life she and Prashant wanted. The American dream. Her parents knew they’d never find her a man as smart as she was. So they focused on “smart enough not to be left behind.” Prashant was brilliant in his own ways. It was a wonderful match.

Ok but if she’s this computer whiz genius why don’t she have a job and why is she playing housewife to this dude cooking for him and packing his clothes???

She adjusted her sari. American clothes certainly looked nice on Americans, but she preferred traditional clothing.

Literally don’t know a single person our age who regularly wears saris. This is like saying a Japanese woman wears a kimono every day even just at home

A stream of numbers showed up on-screen. She stared at the screen intently, memorizing the output. Ganesh had blessed her with an excellent memory.

So weird reading this. Bleck 🤮

N. K. Jemisin (the Broken Earth trilogy) is writing fantasy and speculative fiction like you’ve never even fathomed. Paul Tremblay is the greatest horror novelist working today, and his novel A Head Full of Ghosts still gives me nightmares. Veronica Roth created an unforgettable world and populated it with amazing characters in her iconic Divergent trilogy. Andy Weir captured the imagination of the world and scienced the shit out of his already-a-classic The Martian. And Amor Towles, with A Gentleman in Moscow, has simply written one of the best novels I’ve ever read. I recommend it every day.
