With graduation behind her, she's more than ready for a break from her family, from Mamma's inexplicable obsession with her finding the "Ideal Indian Husband." Ugh. Dimple knows they must respect her principles on some level, though. If they truly believed she needed a husband <i>right now</i>, they wouldn't have paid for her to attend a summer program for aspiring web developers...right? <p/>Rishi Patel is a hopeless romantic. So when his parents tell him that his future wife will be attending the same summer program as him--wherein he'll have to woo her--he's totally on board. Because as silly as it sounds to most people in his life, Rishi <i>wants </i>to be arranged, <i>believes </i>in the power of tradition, stability, and being a part of something much bigger than himself. <p/>The Shahs and Patels didn't mean to start turning the wheels on this "suggested arrangement" so early in their children's lives, but when they noticed them both gravitate toward the same summer program, they figured, <i>Why not?</i> <p/>Dimple and Rishi may think they have each other figured out. But when opposites clash, love works hard to prove itself in the most unexpected ways.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>A YALSA 2018 Best Fiction for Young Adults Selection<br> <b>An ALA 2018 Amelia Bloomer List Selection<br> <b>An NPR Best Book of 2017<br> <b>A <i>Buzzfeed</i> Best YA Book of 2017<br> <b>A <i>Kirkus</i> Best Teen Book of 2017<br> <b>A <i>School Library Journal</i> Best Young Adult Book of 2017<br> <b>A Chicago Public Library Best Teen Book of 2017<br> <b>A <i>Bustle</i> Best YA Novel of 2017<br> <b>A <i>PopSugar</i> Best Young Adult Novel of 2017<br> <b>A <i>Paste Magazine</i> Best Young Adult Novel of 2017<br> <b>A <i>Book Riot</i> Best Book of 2017<br> <b>A B&N Teen Blog Best YA Novel of 2017<br> <b>A Summer 2017 Top Ten Indie Next Pick<br> <b>A Junior Library Guild Selection</b></b></b></b></b></b></b></b></b></b></b></b></b></b> <p/>"Effervescent." <b><i>--Chicago Tribune</i></b> <p/>"Full of warm characters and sweet romance." <b><i>--</i></b><b><i>Entertainment Weekly</i></b> <p/>"Get ready to fall in love with Dimple Shah and Rishi Patel." <b><i>--</i></b><b><i>HelloGiggles</i></b> <p/>"Adorable." <b><i>--Buzzfeed</i></b> <p/>"Deliciously quirky, funny, and nerdy." <b><i>--Bustle</i></b> <p/>"Charming and heartwarming." <b><i>--PopSugar</i></b> <p/>"Utterly delightful." <b><i>--BookRiot</i></b> <p/>"Heartwarming, empathetic, and often hilarious<i>--</i>a delightful read."<i> --</i><b><i>Kirkus Reviews</i>, starred review</b> <p/>"A vibrant, joyous, funny love story." <b>--VOYA, starred review</b> <p/>"The strength of the story comes from its blending of Indian culture and values into a modern-day romance that scores of readers can enjoy." <b><i>--</i></b><b><i>School Library Journal</i></b> <p/>"Bright and funny." <b><i>--</i></b><b><i>Publishers Weekly</i></b> <p/>"Nuanced and thoughtful . . . will melt the hearts of readers." <b><i>--</i></b><b><i>Booklist</i></b><br>
