Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan
4.0
Kwan's novel is ridiculous and fun and dramatic and exciting. It felt like a peek into the lives of the uber-rich as well as a glimpse into modern Asian culture, and I've never really read a book that gave me either! So, this ended up feeling totally new and different to me, while similar enough to the contemporary fiction/drama books that I've read in the past to not leave me wallowing in the mundane details of their lives.... I'm looking at you other-super-popular-and-recent-Asian-culture-book. Definitely recommended although I'm not sure how fast I'll be looking for the next book in the series. Perhaps I'll leave these as summer reads and look into it next year.
