The Windfall by Diksha Basu
3.0
3.5 stars
I enjoyed this one a lot. I ended up reading it in a pretty fragmented way over nearly a month, due to life stuff that was going on. If I had been able to read it more consistently then I think it would have held together better for me. Once I had more time to focus on it and get into its rhythm, I really liked it. The gentle social satire really worked for me. I've seen some comparisons to Jane Austen, and that makes sense to me.
