Jaigirdar takes the revenge scheme plot from the iconic 2000s movie and adds a fresh sapphic twist. The sleuthing and hijinks are delicious to read, but what ultimately anchors the story is the sweet second-chance romance for two childhood friends. I couldn't wait for Meghna and Rani to get their happily-ever-after.
RANI CHOUDHURY MUST DIE is a heartfelt love letter to girls in STEM, complete with the ultimate rivals-to-lovers romance. Clever, honest, and engaging―Jaigirdar's latest is not to be missed.
If you're still fantasizing about exacting revenge on that one cheating ex who broke your heart, RANI CHOUDHURY MUST DIE will read like therapy. Adiba Jaigirdar's characters are refreshing, rich, and full of heart in what will surely be one of my top romance recommendations of the year.
Romance and revenge go hand in hand in yet another witty, charming, and deeply earnest rom-com from Adiba Jaigirdar. I fell in love within the very first few pages and flew through the rest of them. An absolute delight.
Rani Choudhury Must Die would make a lovely gift to send your cheating ex a message. While you're at it, get another copy for your rival (read: crush) to gauge how on board they are with teaming up (read: falling in love).
A sapphic, science-y spin on scorned lovers' revenge, RANI CHOUDHURY MUST DIE is perfect for anyone who has ever hoped a love triangle would end with the girls ditching the guy and dating each other instead.
Hani and Ishu's Guide to Fake Dating is funny and warm, cleverly balancing skilled storytelling and romantic themes with an exploration of issues such as race and otherness, queer-ness and sexuality
Praise for The Henna Wars: The scenes between Flávia and Nishat simmer, and their mesmerizing relationship unfolds with just the right amount of complexity. Most satisfyingly, each character gets the ending she deserves. Impossible to put down.
Adiba Jaigirdar, a previous winner of the YA book prize, returned with the smart, Sapphic romance Rani Choudhury Must Die (Hodder), which sees two bitter rivals team up when they are wronged by the same boy.
