i grew up in a city where Saraswati Puja was the time for young people to dress up in traditional wear and wander the pandals showing off their plumage. When I actually lived in a college later, it was very fun, one of the events of the year, with best pandal competitions and "magazines"--a collection of writings and drawings placed under glass for visitors to look through.
Yaaaasssssssssss! Finally another Dear Reader issue 😭. Love this.

also, i'm wondering if you've heard of The Scandalous Letters of V and J, a fantasy/romance I much enjoyed last year.
