A review by booksandbongs
The Henna Artist by Alka Joshi

emotional hopeful reflective sad medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

Enjoyed this as an audiobook. 
I thought the characters were interesting although Radha really annoyed me at times. 
I know the </pregnancy> was important for the plot but I think Lakshmi’s story would still be interesting without that element. 
I enjoyed it enough to place a hold on the secret keeper of Jaipur.
