This book is poorly written. I suppose if you are born and raised in India, you may be used to this manner of English grammar. I, being from the States, however, am not and found it hard to follow. Much of the grammar was choppy and over articulated where it didn't actually make much sense. I had to keep reminding myself that this must be how they speak English in India. He also over explained everything to where I was asking myself, "Oh my God, get to the point!" And crying because she was crying...uggg...cringe. And the part where he wanted her to learn his language and speak it to his family. Why should anyone have to compromise themselves to make someone else happy? I couldn't wrap my head around the concept of arranged marriages either. I am reading this for my friend who went to India and brought it back for me. I feel so bad telling her how awful it is. I am positive she will feel the same about my novels. When you are raised in different cultures, it is very hard to understand the lifestyle of another culture. I noticed that the only people reading this book are Indians. Can you honestly tell me you think this is written well? It's horrendous. Also, are all Indians so obsessed with what someone does for work? He is looking in the dating profiles and wouldn't even consider someone who he didn't think was intelligent as himself. But how did he measure intelligence? Seems a bit pompous to me. My friend who gave me the book also has some bias against Indians dating or marrying non Indians. Is that how it is in India? Seems a little racist to me. Why would anyone recommend this book to anyone outside of India. The ideology is subjective to Indian culture and is hardly transparent. Absolute rubbish.
