Certainly not my usual read, but i really got stuck into it and I'm looking forward to reading the next two books in the trilogy.
It's fun, it's contemporary and kinda shallow. It is fun to read about this bunch of rich people and their silly lives.. but also the collections.
I felt like we didn't really get to know the main characters if Rachel and Nick... They felt more like vessels to glimpse into this crazy works if the mega rich.
It isn't in depth, but it also doesn't matter. It was fun and easy which is what i needed at the time. A book to get into and be engaged with enough to keep me up late at night.

I really like the book. My only complaint was that the family structure can be quite complicated. I would recommend printing a family tree to have next to you while you read.

having watched the movie first (and multiple times) I think the book captures the absurdity of a money centred society all that better

I could not put this book down! So many of the characters were funny. Yes there were a handful of people who really annoyed me with their rudeness. However that's how real life is. I can't wait to pick up the next book.

This is a fun read, but dare I say the movie is better?! It was a bit too long given the plot, but I enjoyed the ride and am curious to read the sequels.

Ridiculous and dramatic but entertaining and enjoyable all at once.
