Crazy Rich Asians is the outrageously funny debut novel about three super-rich, pedigreed Chinese families and the gossip, backbiting, and scheming that occurs when the heir to one of the most massive fortunes in Asia brings home his ABC (American-born Chinese) girlfriend to the wedding of the season.
When Rachel Chu agrees to spend the summer in Singapore with her boyfriend, Nicholas Young, she envisions a humble family home, long drives to explore the island, and quality 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 with one of Asia's most eligible bachelors on her arm, Rachel might as well have a target on her back.
Initiated into a world of dynastic splendor beyond imagination, Rachel meets Astrid, the It Girl of Singapore society; Eddie, whose family practically lives in the pages of the Hong Kong socialite magazines; and Eleanor, Nick's formidable mother, a woman who has very strong feelings about who her son should--and should not--marry. Uproarious, addictive, and filled with jaw-dropping opulence, Crazy Rich Asians is an insider's look at the Asian JetSet; a perfect depiction of the clash between old money and new money; between Overseas Chinese and Mainland Chinese; and a fabulous novel about what it means to be young, in love, and gloriously, crazily rich.
Holy crazy book,Lah! 屌丝平民女主加高富帅贵族世家男主,Lah。这不就是够血韩剧重现吗。尤其不喜欢书里各种拟声词“Lah”,也许是因为单纯的不喜欢港式英语Lah. 作为小说读物,不可。作为英语初级读物,可。想窥视粤语族富人穷极无聊的生活,可。
评分1. 总体还行,读起来饶有兴致。满足人们对顶级富豪阶层的偷窥欲,同时也佐证,烦恼不管有钱没钱,总是有的。 2. 太多时尚方面的内容,不懂。但是富豪阶层的鄙视链,虽然没有亲历(我这脸有多大,想着“亲历”)但看起来似乎都是合乎情理的。作者,应该如其所言,也是那里出来的...

评分刚开始看的时候作者狂拽名牌奢侈品还觉得挺没劲的。然后不用说男女主角都是俊男靓女咯,好人也都人美心善,坏人一般都跟暴发户一样。不过后面越看越上瘾。情节是一般般,可是一看到新加坡大妈讲英文前都会加个Aiyoh,Alamak什么的我就好想笑哈哈哈。哎呀会不会四娘粉看小时代也...
评分会读这本书的原因其实很好笑,在图书馆的书架摸到它,被质感惊呆了,装帧设计也很美,所以这本书一定要读Anchor的纸质版,实在是非常非常幸福的阅读体验。 回到书的内容上,作者在书中歧视中国大陆的情节太多,并且一点也不了解大陆,蛮可笑的。但可读性还是挺强的,如果没事干...
只要有涉及mainland china的地方十有八九非常失真且充满歧视...
评分It’s like watching trashy TV shows. You know it’s trash but you get addicted to it somehow. A good time killer. But I won’t believe everything it said about the rich people. After all, those description about China mainland was a bit off.
