The Marriage Bureau

The reviews told me that The Wedding Wallah by Farahad Zama is a feel-good story and I can only agree. Even though I haven't yet read the two first books in the series, The Wedding Wallah is a welcoming, well-written distraction after a few so, so books (see previous reviews). I enjoyed it a lot.
The book is set in modern India and portrays well the clashes of old and new. The traditions of an arranged marriage and the modernity of a castless society. Urban and rural traditions co-mingling on the pages. Now I can't wait to read the first two books in the series as well.
