My only problem with the book is... WHY didn't I read it before! This is one incredible book that literally makes you laugh out loud. It shows a very relatable and realistic image of an Indian household, though having five sisters, alphabetically named, isn't all that common. It is set in a contemporary age which still applies to the Indian society. The hyper, socially conscious mother, with the laid back father, their bickering, tension regarding the marriage of five daughters, arguments related to property, claiming their hissa or part, younger sisters living in the shadow of their elder nemesis. The lives of the sisters and their characters are as different as their names. The eldest and prettiest married rich but is dissatisfied being unable to conceive, second one wasn't that lucky in the money department but has twins and sued her own father for her hissa, third ran away a day before her marriage and has been disowned by the family, fourth is her father's fav
