Okay, let's start criticizing this book. This will be fun for me. Yes, criticizing is fun.
Not criticizing paragraphs:
As promised Shalini is torn from her life. She had trouble blending in with her fellow classmates. Her classmates bully her, tease her, and make fun of her. Shalini has no clue of fashion. She doesn't know what to wear and doesn't know how to act. Back at home, she has trouble with her fiance. People in the US don't get engaged/betrothed till they are like eighteen or nineteen years old. But her? Three years old. Poor girl.
Shalini's mother is depressed. She hates the US. She hates living there. She wants to go home, back to India. She gets more and more depressed and homesick.
The behaviors of the other characters were realistic. *Applauds* Good job Kavita Daswani. You got the minds of the characters down. Excellent. Brilliant. It's a job well done.
Renuka is the rock of Shalini. She helps Shalini cope with the freaky world of America. She helps her learn the basics and attitudes of Americans.
The writing was good. It flows really well for me.
The plot was cute and adorable, but I will talk a lot more about it in the "Criticizing Paragraphs" section.
Criticizing Paragraphs:
First of all, Toby. Yes, he is a cute guy. I could feel the his hotness rolling off the pages of "Lovetorn." That hot. Plus he plays an instrument. Even hotter.
The bad part is that he appears after the halfway mark of the book. AFTER. What the cuss is this author thinking! The hot guy appears at the beginning so you won't bored your reader! OMG! It's THAT SIMPLE.
The plot. UGH! I felt the plot was a little unbelievable. Truly. After being engaged for most of his life, how could he let her go so easily. He loved her so much. It was obvious! The author let Virkam go way too easily. He needs to put up a fight.
*Sigh*
This book's rating: Three out of Five.
BOOM! DONE!
