Pinky is deep, smart, intense and passionate. She wants people to accept her for who she is but the person who matters the most to her, her mother, doesnt seem to want to hear anything she has to say. Samir Jha is the perfect son, but when his summer plans fall through the last thing he can stomach is going back home to his mom. Together they come up with a plan to get Pinky's mom on her side.
I loved this book so much! The relationships in this book were all filled with feeling and depth. I loved that there was a strong cousin relationship and step-dad and step-daughter relationship. Pinky loves the environment and Samir is just the best.
I'm so sad that this was the last book in the series!
