🩺 #DatingDrDil is a good one to pick. And if you're a fan of audiobooks, is the way to go 😌. The narrators who are some of my favorite audiobook narrators did it so well that you would feel it.
Enjoyed the banter among the desi aunties and arranged marriage setups. They were hilarious and for the author to include this expectation of marriage and matchmaking in some South Asian communities, I'm sure the majority can relate to it amongst other LOL scenes.
There's a little bit of angst, but it was fun. And I'm glad it didn't linger on far too long. Our main characters brought out their inner child, and it was adorable. I've seen others call it childish and immature, but it isn't. It's a rom-com, we benefit so deeply from laughing, from letting go. And the connection we feel while Incorporating it into our lives, environment, and relationships while letting go is profound.
I did feel like the family relationship was lacking way too much. The father and sister especially. Rina's feelings and opinions were regarded least.
But Rina stayed true to what she believed and want, and as it eventually worked for her, it also helped Prem as well. That was remarkable.
