Publisher's summary

For fans of Morgan Matson's Save the Date comes a charming novel about one teen's summer tackling disasters including, but not limited to, family, romance, and weather - as she plans her sister's Bollywood-style Indian wedding.

Mini's big sister, Vinnie, is getting married. Their mom passed away seven years ago and between Dad's new start-up and Vinnie's medical residency, there's no one but Mini to plan the wedding. Dad raised her to know more about computers, calculus, and cars than desi weddings but from the moment Mini held the jewelry Mom left them, she wanted her sister to have the wedding Mom would've planned.

Now Mini has only two months to get it done and she's not going to let anything distract her, not even the persistent, mysterious, and smoking-hot Vir Mirchandani. Flower garlands, decorations, music, even a white wedding horse - everything is in place.

That is, until a monster hurricane heads for Boston that could ruin everything. Will Mini come through as sister of the bride and save the day?

Loved this story!

I added this to my library after hearing an interview with the author on a podcast. She talked about being a Sarah Dessen fan, but disappointed that there wasn’t the equivalent for Indian readers. So she wrote one! A great romantic tale with a story of loss, grief and growth strewn in. I found myself laughing out loud at several times and with tears in my eyes more than once. Just the right balance of serious and fun. Definitely recommend— and I wouldn’t mind a sequel!

A Magazine Article at Best

I really don't know why this is a book to begin with .. it's a bridal magazine article at best
The story is about Mini who is in charge of planning her sister's wedding .. and the story is pretty much that
the whole story is about what Mini did to plan the wedding, even the romance was barely there, there is not much to say about this book, I wanted something that gives me an Indian movie vibe, and that was definitely not it
The narrator was nice
