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.

评分Can't believe I finished this book! It's like a rubbish! I didn't see crazy rich Asians, just crazy not so rich Singaporeans! Since when Singapore becomes the center of Asia? Rating three stars is for the stunning beginning.
评分#疯狂的亚洲富豪# 尽管这是一本三流的小说可我们没人写的出。49年以后大陆就没有old money了,因此郭敬明这样从小吃冒菜涮猪脑长大的,只能发际之后写写小时代。他穷尽想象道听途说也写不出“疯狂的亚洲富豪”,因为大陆没有“上流社会”,没有这样经历三四代的人财富堆积。或...

can't believe i read it...asian version of Gossip Girl
评分17年计划看的书,19年最后一个月硬着头皮看完了。
评分Parallel worlds.
评分剧情还没有小时代丰富。。。
评分情节非常单薄 但作者想探讨的话题挺深刻的 两条线都在试图破解 两个来自不同阶级的人到底能否结合 书里作者给了小团圆的结局 但是讲真 我并不觉得这种挣脱阶级的婚姻会幸福 丹麦以前的香港王妃 甚至男人斩的扛把子邓姐 婚姻结束 都不能逃脱阶级差距在里面扮演的角色
