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.

Geschichte
When his mother became president, Alex Claremont-Diaz was promptly cast as the American equivalent of a young royal. Handsome, charismatic, genius - his image is pure millennial-marketing gold for the White House. There's only one problem: Alex has a beef with the actual prince, Henry, across the pond. And when the tabloids get hold of a photo involving an Alex-Henry altercation, US/British relations take a turn for the worse. Heads of family, state, and other handlers devise a plan for damage control: staging a truce between the two rivals.

Geschichte
Beloved author Elizabeth Gilbert returns to fiction with a unique love story set in the New York City theater world during the 1940s. Told from the perspective of an older woman as she looks back on her youth with both pleasure and regret (but mostly pleasure), City of Girls explores themes of female sexuality and promiscuity, as well as the idiosyncrasies of true love. In 1940, nineteen-year-old Vivian Morris has just been kicked out of Vassar College, owing to her lackluster freshman-year performance.

Milly, Aubrey, and Jonah Story are cousins, but they barely know each another, and they've never even met their grandmother. Rich and reclusive, she disinherited their parents before they were born. So when they each receive a letter inviting them to work at her island resort for the summer, they're surprised...and curious. Their parents are all clear on one point - not going is not an option. This could be the opportunity to get back into Grandmother's good graces. But when the cousins arrive on the island, it's immediately clear that she has different plans for them.

fantastically written, not spoken well at all
the speaker has a pleasant voice but often emphasises incorrectly and gets accents completely wrong. Not saying its easy, but its a shame as this is the only thing that stops this audiobook from being a masterpiece!

the nuances the movie misses are in the book
Great book, it gives you a picture of Singapore that is truly decadent. the characters develop beautifully through the book. Some of the accents that Lynn Chen tries for some of the characters are a bit awkward and don't quite work.

Quite alright for a rainy day
Over all it’s a nice story with occasional portrays of the Asian family minded mentality, which is a refreshing and much needed angle. However it also draws a picture of a supposed materialistic and slightly vulgar part of society and whilst listening I have often felt that the characters and the writing style of Kevin Kwan wants for elegance.
The voice or the narrator, Lynn Chen, takes some getting used to, especially with one of the protagonists, who is supposed to have a British accent or when she pronounces anything in French.

Very entertaining and catching story
A funny story with a moral told in a authentic chinese way. If you know a bit about China, Malaysia and have maybe been there you can relate to the different places, foods, way the natives talk and their ethnics. I had fun listening to this book and like that the narrate seems to be Chinese herself and gets across the dialect very well. Contrary to other reviews I do not think that words were mispronounced.
