Book Description:
A hip chick from Newport Beach, California, who's just turned thirty, discovered she's the incarnation of the Hindu goddess Kali, and happens to be unemployed and still living with her parents. Saving the world, though, may prove to be a curry-scented breeze compared to dealing with her extended Indian family. In their eyes she isn't just the black sheep -- she's low-grade mutton.
To make matters worse, despite frequent and therapeutic bouts of shopping and Starbucks, and the mentoring of a Taco Bell-loving, Coca Cola-guzzling swami, Maya has trouble just surviving, thanks to the attentions of a Kali-hating fanatic and a matchmaking aunt hell-bent on finding her a nice Indian boy. Maya has no interest in boys. She wants a man and she may have found one.
He's tall, dark, and gorgeous ... and completely uninterested in her.
In the name of all that's holy and fashionable ... what on Earth is a goddess to do?

I liked it , it was a quick read, very funny. Didn't feel at the end of the book like why the heck did I read that whole thing. Cute.

A good quick read, but the ending leaves things lacking, and set up for a sequeal possibly (it would be nice if there was a sequeal to see if the main character does indeed save the world). Otherwise a very funny read.

A very good, quick, easy light-hearted, fun read. I enjoyed it thoroughly, finishing it in 2 days. It's a chick-lit with a bit of fantasy and it makes it not like every other chick lit book.

A fun, funny, easy breezy book that you can finish in one night. I enjoyed the story. It's written tongue in cheek so read it when you want a break from more serious reading.

A funny look at balancing family heritage and social culture. The heroine is an imperfect goddess, which makes it all the better. Funny, and an easy read!

Fun, chick lit about a woman who finds out she is the reincarnation of the Hindu goddess, Kali.
