Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin KwanMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I really, really liked this book. I read it in the middle of a set of "beach read" books, and it stood out. It's about a Chinese-American woman whose boyfriend is from a rich Singaporean family. I mean, really rich. Really, really rich. She goes home with him for a wedding one summer in college and all the politics, backstabbing, and plotting that you can imagine goes on within his family. She is judged as "American-born Chinese" ABC, which is less prestigious than her boyfriend's native standing. All in all a fun, funny, book and I was delighted to see there is a sequel!
