I was already in the middle of eight books when I spied this at the library, but not only did I check it out anyway but I also spurned them all to immediately devour this one when I got home.

This was delightful. As filled with earnest wholesomeness as you would expect from a title with that tagline, but also a surprising amount of goofiness (Princess Bride quotes, sight gags, etc.) that kept me laughing out loud. Some gentle Sikh education/proselytizing, as well as some commentary on profiling/xenophobia that doesn't get too heavy handed. This slim little book manages to fit in plenty of tropes, gags, character introductions, culture introductions and still execute a tight plot. An admirable feat.

I hope there is more of this coming.… (altro)
