Fitting Indian Coming May 13, 2025 〰️
My first book is coming soon!
I wrote Fitting Indian to create representation like you’ve never seen it, written for a generation ready to embrace that life is not always perfect. My debut teen graphic novel follows one girl’s journey navigating high school and her mental health within a traditional South Asian family. Meant to spark conversation and affirm that we do have to face our struggles alone.

A snapshot of a few recent reads I highly recommend!
Kristin Hannah’s The Women is a deeply moving novel that shines a spotlight on the untold stories of women who served during the Vietnam War. Following the journey of Frances “Frankie” McGrath, a young nurse thrust into the chaos of war, Hannah masterfully captures the raw emotions of love, trauma, and the struggle to find one’s place in a world that doesn’t understand.
Freida McFadden once again proves she is the queen of psychological suspense with The Boyfriend. This gripping novel pulls readers into a web of secrets, lies, and jaw-dropping twists as the story unfolds. The pacing is sharp, the tension builds masterfully, and just when you think you have it all figured out—McFadden delivers another twist that leaves you reeling.
Here One Moment is a beautifully written novel that explores the fragility of human relationships and the impact of life-changing moments. The story pulls readers into an emotional journey, balancing grief, hope, and the search for meaning when everything feels uncertain. The characters are compelling and relatable, each grappling with their own struggles in ways that feel authentic and raw.
