4.0

Like magic, this book does exactly what Dial A For Aunties did without feeling like a repetitive bore. Perhaps even wilder than before, Meddy shines in her role as an anxious bride and her aunties steal the show once more, with kidnapping, drugs, and tai chi. Definitely tests the limits of your imagination but I couldn't stop laughing, and it feels nice to have a romcom where the comedy is actually hilarious. The book truly reads as an unapologetic love letter to Chinese-Indonesian culture and I'm all here for it. Loved it!
