Where back in Asia with the Young family.  Uma is on her death bed and the family has come together to say their goodbyes. When Nick shows up to make amends the family gets in an uproar. I love all the family drama. This was well written.  I loved the writing style and the way the characters developed. I will miss this series!

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.

It is very similar to the previous two in the series. For me it felt like the story dragged on some. There was a lot of time spent on Kitty's story which was the least interesting in my opinion.
