Pin must not become like her mother, but nobody will tell her why. She seeks clues in Ma’s cooking when she’s not fighting other battles—being a bursary girl at an elite school and facing racial taunts from the bus uncle. Then her meddlesome grandmother moves in, installing a portrait of a watchful Sikh guru and a new set of house rules. Old secrets begin to surface but can Pin handle learning the truth?

The book is beautifully written. The writing style is descriptive. The character development is on point. I think that this book has multiple plotlines. And each and every plotline gets a resolution. There are family dynamics as well. The only complaint I have is that the ending seemed to be wound up. It could have been a bit better. The narration is lovely.
