Author: Kevin Kwan
Genre: Fiction
Other books I've read by this author: Crazy Rich Asians, China Rich Girlfriend
Synopsis: Nick Young's grandmother, Su Yi, is on her death bed and everyone is speculating about who will inherit the fabulous family home, Tyersall Park in Singapore. All her children and grandchildren arrive with their families to say goodbye and some try one last attempt to curry favor with Su Yi. What will happen to Tyersall Park? What did Su Yi leave in her will? What did she intend?
My Thoughts
Another fun and exciting read from Kevin Kwan. The way he puts unexpected twists into the story is so unique. When you read a series by an author you begin to know how they work. In this novel, there were portions where the reader would think, 'this can't really be what the author wants me to believe is happening, he is never that predictable.' And then you keep reading for a while and then you start to believe that maybe that the predictable event is actually happening.
Then BOOM! SURPRISE TWIST.
I personally then become annoyed with myself for letting my guard down and believing that Kwan would really be that predictable. It is frustrating and also endearing at the same time.
If you liked the first two, you will love this one. As the last novel in the series, it wraps up nicely. This series is just so fun.*
Comment below if you have read this book or have suggestions for others like it!
*Plus, I love the asterisk asides that give details into the rich Asian cultures portrayed in the books.
