Hani and Ishu's Guide to Fake Dating by Adiba Jaigirdar

Two Bengali girls living in Ireland are NOT friends, but their shared cultural experiences bring them together.

Hani is bisexual, only her friends are not very accepting and don't seem to believe her. So, Hani lies, saying she has a girlfriend, only keeping up this lie is going to be pretty difficult without Ishu's help.

Ishu, however, has her own problems, her stupid older sister has decided to drop out of med school to get married and her parents have cut her off. It's Ishu's job to excel, to become Head Girl and ace her exams and make her parents proud.

There are fabulous themes in this book surrounding school, friendships and family relationships as well as the cultural aspect of growing up in a country that's not the same as where your parents grew up.
