THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER AND BELOVED MOVIE starring Constance Wu, Henry Golding, Michelle Yeoh and Gemma Chan!

'Mordantly funny' Anna Wintour
'A roller coaster trip' Jackie Collins
'A book version of Vogue' Guardian

When Rachel Chu agrees to spend the summer in Singapore with her boyfriend, Nicholas Young, she envisions a humble family home and time with the man she might one day marry.

What she doesn't know is that Nick's family home happens to look like a palace, that she'll ride in more private planes than cars and that she is about to encounter the strangest, craziest group of people in existence.

Uproarious, addictive, and filled with jaw-dropping opulence, Crazy Rich Asians is an insider's look at the Asian jet set; a perfect depiction of the clash between old money and new money — and a fabulous novel about what it means to be young, in love, and gloriously, crazily rich.

    I read this book after watching the movie. The book, is so much better when left to one's imagination. Gosh, now I want to explore Singapore in a newfound perspective.

    Another Cinderella story, with a twist of modern era.
    CE on steroids. *sorry CE fans.... or not* ;)

    Halfway reading it, I was certain I'll be giving 2* in my review, but then the story's getting so much better... only to be flat again in last couple chapters. So 3* it is. Not bad. Just not my fav taste of tea.

    I love Astrid and her conflicted marriage. I can't blame Michael for being tired of their life, but I do looked down on him for being cowardice. He shouldn't married her ih he wasn't trully in love with her. He shouldn't orchestrating such a cheapen scheme to getting out of it. Speaking oh honorable and trully in love, Charlie gave me a chill. Wish him the very best of life.

    Another character I like was Oliver. He's stealing some lime light here and there. Cunning as snake he is.

    Well, by and by, I'm still curious enough to see how Nick and Rachel would holding on. So I might be taking the second book. But just don't hold your breath.

  • Maria Rechilda Decanofez uma citaçãohá 7 anos
    all that talk of “being in love” or “finding the right one” was absolute nonsense. Marriage was purely a matter of timing, and whenever a man was finally done sowing his wild oats and ready to settle down, whichever girl happened to be there at the time would be the right one.

    “learn to accept and learn to adapt.”
