A review by janagaton
Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan

2.0

I rarely ever watch the movie before finishing the book it's based on, but this was an exception, and I'm glad I decided to do that because I actually enjoyed the movie more, and it helped me appreciate the rest of the book more than I would have. It was a slow read for me, and I know the whole point of the book is to exaggerate the superficiality of these insanely wealthy people, but it just felt like too much in writing. The movie was very well-crafted, though, and it made me cry!
