A good ending to the whole Crazy Rich Asians trilogy, focused on the passing of the head of the clan, Shang Su Yi. The book deals with all the emotions the large family deal with during her final days on her deathbed as well as after her passing. The book coninues the subplots of Astrid and her new partner Charlie, as well as rounding off Eddie's subplot where he bids for a large stake in Su Yi's inheritance. This novel revolves mostly around Nick, Rachel takes a back seat in this novel until halfway through, and her charachter seems to have been cast to the side and underdeveloped here. The 'humble' Chinese American girl has been lost in the battle for Su Yi's inheritance, and Kwan could have developed Rachel by exploring the changes in her cultural and social status.

How is it possible that this book had even MORE drama than the last ones!? There were definitely some parts that were frustrating and emotional. It really shows you how awful some people can be? But wow did the ending make up for it! I absolutely loved the wrap up of the ending and was so happy to see how things turned out for a few characters! I couldn't believe how attached I got to some of these characters. Such a good ending to the trilogy!!
