Three starred reviews for this charming romantic comedy about an aspiring teen filmmaker who finds her voice and falls in love, from the New York Times bestselling author of When Dimple Met Rishi.

Aspiring filmmaker and wallflower Twinkle Mehra has stories she wants to tell and universes she wants to explore, if only the world would listen. So when fellow film geek Sahil Roy approaches her to direct a movie for the upcoming Summer Festival, Twinkle is all over it. The chance to publicly showcase her voice as a director? Dream come true. The fact that it gets her closer to her longtime crush, Neil Roy—a.k.a. Sahil’s twin brother? Dream come true x 2.

When mystery man “N” begins emailing her, Twinkle is sure it’s Neil, finally ready to begin their happily-ever-after. The only slightly inconvenient problem is that, in the course of movie-making, she’s fallen madly in love with the irresistibly adorkable Sahil.

Twinkle soon realizes that resistance is futile: The romance she’s got is not the one she’s scripted. But will it be enough?

Told through the letters Twinkle writes to her favorite female filmmakers, From Twinkle, with Love navigates big truths about friendship, family, and the unexpected places love can find you.

Beautiful, this is why YA is the best!

Twinkle isome of the best heroines I can remember! Loved the diary format, and her writing to female filmmakers!

Cute ya

Cute ya novel. I especially loved that the heroine was dark skinned, something you don’t see portrayed with woc in romance that much(girls are typically always lighter than their love interest).

This author has a way with female characters that want to make change in the world in their own way. While I don’t think it was as memorable as when dimple met rishi, it was still cute.

She was a film maker too! It does follow a similar poor girl rich boy trope but it still stood on its own. Her friendships did frustrate me, especially Maddie(her former bestie) but I guess that’s the life of teens.

Sahil was super sweet too, so I couldn’t not think of a reason not to give it a five.

Meets Expectations

First read When Dimple Met Rishi. Not disappointed with this one either. She did it again!

it was ok

i really loved when dimple met Rishi so i was hoping to love twinkle as much. although i appreciated how she was written and the breakdown of social misunderstandings i wasn’t as connected to the characters . The narrators were great but in my opinion the story was missing something.

Cute Story Like A Bollywood Movie

Ok, so I enjoyed this book way more than her first book ( When Dimple Met Rishi ) although I did have a problem with Twinkle but the story itself seems like it came out straight from a Bollywood movie, there were some scenes that made me smile and Sahil's personality is very good and I liked him way more than Twinkle, the book although explores the issue of friendships and being compared to other people and not appreciating your full talent .. it was a nice cute book with a lot of fluff and not much drama

The narration was nice and average .. she did have a whiney voice at some point but she was fine .. and the male narrator was also good, nothing much to say
