I enjoyed this book, funnily enough I read the first one (Crazy Rich Asians), was intrigued and my parents bought me this one from an OP-shop. I started reading and realised halfway through that this was the third book 🫣!

In saying that. I didn’t actually think I had missed a whole lot or was behind on information as this was written in a way that summarised well.

As someone who seeks to read clean fiction, there was a lot of swearing. Loads more than the first book. There were quite a few graphic sexual scenes. I struggled to read some of the content, simply due to what I prefer reading.

Plot-wise, this book kept me on the edge of my seat. I wanted to know what happened next every chapter. 

If you like slight mystery, history (specifically Chinese and Singaporean), romance, and feeling frustrated at every single characters then this is the book for you.

I was so close to dnfing bc the some of the side stories were so boring and dragged for way to long. I liked how it ended overall but I don’t think I would pick this series up again.

I really enjoyed this book but I’m also sad that it’s over! I’ve loved reading about the Young, T'sien and Shang families.

My favourite is still Astrid. But I also love Nicky and Ah Ma. I would’ve loved to find out more about Ah Ma’s past told from her perspective.

The only thing that bugged me was that the one character that had a mental illness was just brushed off as being psycho - I will admit that I did think they were really crazy but when you found out more about them, it did make sense and I started to sympathise.

I thought the ending was perfect; it wrapped up the series really well and all the characters got a satisfying ending.

Highly recommend this series for the wild lifestyles and gossipy characters.
