2.0

This is a sad instance where the movie is better than the book. I absolutely love the "Crazy Rich Asians" movie and I thought I would get that type of spirit when reading the books. If I had read the books first, I probably wouldn't have watched the movie. These books are not terrible and are best suited to a quick beach or airplane read but don't expect the same humor and lightheartedness of the movie.
