Great reading!
I'm one of the few who has not made it to the theater to see the movie, but I heard the book was really good and even better because it goes into more detail of the characters. So far, half way thru the book am loving it! so when the next book, I hear there are 3 in this trilogy of Crazy Rich Asians, goes on sale thru eBay, I plan to get that one next! Its such an easy reading book, I just wish I had the time to read it in its entirety rather than a few chapters each night before bed.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

don't see the love
I couldn't related to all the rich pampered brats, which were through out the book, so I don't enjoy the book. I liked the two main characters, who were smart decent people, that and it ended fairly well.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
