Girl From Fatehpur by Sarita Varma


  
  This is my first indirom novella. I hope to read more from the house of indireads, and review them as I travel with other such novellas. Indireads is a young publishing house that focuses primarily on the popular fiction genre from South Asia.
 
   And now my views on this book.

     The first crush is always special, a beautiful memory for life. Rajan was Sana’s first crush or is it first love. That was ten years ago. Now there is the charismatic Krish Chauhan. But does Krish kindle Sana’s feeling the way Rajan did.

   Unable to decide, or rather not wanting to commit to Krish’s proposal, Sanjana escapes to her family home and especially to Devika her cousin, her confidante citing her cousin’s wedding as an excuse. But fate has other plans. She first bumps in Rajan, as irresistible as before and then to complicate matters Krish lands in Fatehpur.  

   A simple plot, the author delves into the story right away at the beginning. I liked the narrative, crisp and precise, paying attention to only necessary details.  Over all a light hearted romance with easily relatable characters. Pick it up with a cup of hot masala chai – if you can’t get one in a kullar.
