Description
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The international sensation and blockbuster Hollywood rom com. • "A Pride and Prejudice-like send-up about an heir bringing his Chinese-American girlfriend home to meet his ancestor-obsessed family.” —People
“Deliciously decadent.... This 48-karat beach read is crazy fun.” —Entertainment Weekly
When New Yorker Rachel Chu agrees to spend the summer in Singapore with her boyfriend, Nicholas Young, she envisions a humble family home and quality time with the man she hopes to marry. But Nick has failed to give his girlfriend a few key details. One, that his childhood home looks like a palace; two, that he grew up riding in more private planes than cars; and three, that he just happens to be the country’s most eligible bachelor.
On Nick’s arm, Rachel may as well have a target on her back the second she steps off the plane, and soon, her relaxed vacation turns into an obstacle course of old money, new money, nosy relatives, and scheming social climbers.

Just not feeling it
1By Happy in DSM.Vibrant
5By GYPPED!Such great writing & much better than the movie!*Rolls Eyes*
1By Unsatisfied Facebooker!The use of the N word was so unnecessary and completely threw me off. I’ve tried to continue this book multiple times and this will be my last attempt.I love a book that makes me laugh
5By DGSawtellLots of laughs. The movie did great matching actors and characters.Some Parts Good. Some Parts Filler.
3By OzcromeThere were parts of this book that I very much enjoyed. Many characters were well developed and interesting (Astrid). However, many characters were unnecessary and the detail devoted to them, including the settings in which they are presented serve merely as filler. Overall, I stuck with this book through the end because I can’t stand to leave a book unfinished, and I did enjoy parts of it. However, I can’t recommend it.Great book!
5By JacobHugginsI wish I read it before the movie! Either way both were well done in their own ways, and of course with the book coming first I can’t be disappointed! Such a great story! Time to start the next!!Amazing book!
5By lasgnauwhwhwI recently began reading the book, it keeps you interested in the story line while explaining the family history and such 10/10 would recommendFun Read!
