I was definitely into book one. While I’m not drawn to this genre normally, I needed some light summer reading. Well, I kinda of fell in love with Nick and Rachel and their perspective of the story. I was saddened when Rachel lost a large part of the limelight in book two. But to almost completely disappear in book three was just weird. The author can write. There’s no doubting that. I’m just unsure of his reasoning behind having so many characters throughout the series and then taking the main character out of the equation in book 2/3- very odd. It reminded me of a film where the original lead wouldn’t sign up for the sequel. Book three could’ve been a lot better. Definitely a let down for me.Tags : Rich People Problems (Crazy Rich Asians Trilogy) [Kevin Kwan] on Amazon.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. <b><b><b> NEW YORK TIMES</i> BESTSELLER</b></b> Kevin Kwan, bestselling author of Crazy Rich Asians</i> <b>(soon to be a MAJOR MOTION PICTURE starring Constance Wu,Kevin Kwan,Rich People Problems (Crazy Rich Asians Trilogy),Doubleday,0385542232,Asian American,Contemporary Women,Humorous - General,Asia,Divorced women,Families,Families;Fiction.,Fashion design,Inheritance and succession,Inheritance and succession;Fiction.,Psychological fiction,Rich people,Rich people;Fiction.,Upper class,ASIAN AMERICAN NOVEL AND SHORT STORY,FICTION Asian American,FICTION Humorous General,FICTION Women,Fiction,Fiction-Humorous,FictionFamily Life - General,FictionHumorous - General,FictionWomen,GENERAL,General Adult,Humorous - General,Inheritance and succession,Inheritance and succession;Fiction.,Psychological fiction,Rich people,Rich people;Fiction.,United States,Upper class,beach gift;top gifts for women;travel gifts;book best sellers for women;gift ideas for women;best sellers on amazon;top rated books;new york best seller list;best travel gifts;beach gifts for women;beach gifts;travel gifts for women;beach reads for women 2018;book club recommendations 2018;book club recommendations 2017;best book club books 2017;crazy rich asians;novel;fiction;women's fiction;funny fiction;Singapore;romantic comedy;chick lit books;books for women;book club recommendations;family,novel; fiction; women's fiction; funny fiction; Singapore; Shanghai; romantic comedy; marriage; chick lit books; womens fiction; books for women; book club recommendations; crazy rich asians; best book club books 2017; book club recommendations 2018; book club recommendations 2017; travel gifts for women; beach reads for women 2018; travel gifts; book best sellers for women; gift ideas for women; best sellers on amazon; top rated books; new york best seller list; best travel gifts; beach gifts for women; beach gifts,FICTION Asian American,FICTION Humorous General,FICTION Women,FictionFamily Life - General,FictionHumorous - General,FictionWomen,Asian American Novel And Short Story,Fiction
Rich People Problems Crazy Rich Asians Trilogy Kevin Kwan 9780385542234 Books Reviews
The first two were fun and definitely showed the crazy (no pun) side of the super-rich. This, being the third and final in the trilogy seemed rushed. I felt like some of these backstories would have been better spread out in the first two books because by the third, halfway through, it felt as though the author was quickly trying to tie up all the loose ends. And while the books started with Rachel, this book focused on Nick and his family.
This book is a culmination of Kwan's trilogy. It's hard to believe there are people who live this way, but Kwan says he had to tone reality down to make it more believable. I admit that this series is addicting and fun to read--not so much ha-ha fun, but interesting. The two main characters are not nearly as engrossing as the people who surround them in the story.
The third book in this amazing trilogy that has opened the world of the "crazy rich asians" to many of us for the first time, is an excellent, very entertaining and well written summer read. Full of mind boggling fashion, interior design, food and spending excesses, this grand finale takes the reader on a journey full of emotional suspense and plot twists, as many familiar and a few new characters meet again in Singapore and in stunning, luxurious locales across the planet. I loved and enjoyed this book from the first page to the last and read it way too fast. Time to read them all again from the beginning on the beach this summer. Kevin Kwan is masterful at being extremely entertaining, creating a literary world, characters and locations that I can see, hear, smell and feel and weaving a web of relationships that display a deep understanding of the intricacies of life and human perceptions, desires and interactions. Thus I have found myself again and again in the characters of his books and have come away enriched from immersing myself in this strange world.
Well, I just finished my 3rd book in this Trilogy..... and I am so sad that it ended...When I started with the first one I became so involved with the characters. Kevin has a way of writing that puts you right inside the book and you can actually feel and see what is happening... My only hope is that he continues on with these characters and doesn't stop with just 3. I used to read alot and during the last 10 years hadn't finished one book, until THESE ! I highly recommend these books........ with the first one give yourself some time to get involved and once you do they will be very hard to put down.........
This is the last of the trilogy and quite frankly, it makes me sad that there will no longer be another installment of Crazy Rich Asians. It is a fun and easy read and widely entertaining. It puts the reader into a fairy tale world of money and power, a world I shall never see (nor do I want to), and highlights the family members' struggles, from trying to lead a normal life to attaining more wealth and power. This last book dwells more into Astrid's struggles to fit in, Nick's internal struggles with his family and we also learn about the matriarch Su Yi's past. It ties up some loose ends and is a great conclusion to the series.
I bought the entire trilogy at once. I so enjoyed the first book that I immediately went on to the second, only to realize near the end, that I was reading the 3rd book. Even so, I was able to understand everything. However, when finished with the 3rd, I delved into the second, and had many aha moments, so this is why this happened and so forth. I loved this trilogy and recommend reading it in the correct order. All of the top reviews say everything I believe. I will go a step further. If you are not into big spending and consider it obnoxious, then this series is not for you. I thoroughly ENJOY all the brand names and exciting places. I am now passing the trilogy on to my best friend. I'm sure she will love it as much as I did. It may bot be a pulitzer prize winner but it is definitely entertaining. Oh yes, and I DID skim the final book again to clarify some of the finer points.
In the concluding book of the Crazy Rich Asians trilogy, the center of attention actually falls on Shang Su Yi, the matriarch of the Young-Leong-Cheng families. She has fallen ill and with her death approaching, her entire family returns to Singapore. At the start of the book, Nicholas Young is still estranged from his grandmother and with him apparently no longer the heir to the Tyersall estate, other parts of the extended family begin to jockey for position so they can inherit the most fabulous estate in Singapore.
The story focuses on the trials and tribulations Astrid Leong is going through as she attempts to divorce her husband Michael while keeping alive her new relationship with Charlie Wu. It also focuses on Nicholas as he wonders what he should do now that his Grandmother has fallen ill. And we get a lot of attention paid to the Shangs, some attention on Rachel's brother, a good deal of attention on Kitty Pong and Oliver and almost no attention on Rachel. It seems Rachel's story was mostly done so we don't focus on her too much. That's a pity because she was an amazing artistic creation and I would have loved to see more about her. And that's why this book only merits four stars. All in all, it's a good conclusion that could have been better.
For me, the best part of the book were Su Yi's WWII flashbacks. If Kwan doesn't want to continue this story then I hope he would write a story about Su Yi. She has always been amazing and now she sounds even more intriguing.
I was definitely into book one. While I’m not drawn to this genre normally, I needed some light summer reading. Well, I kinda of fell in love with Nick and Rachel and their perspective of the story. I was saddened when Rachel lost a large part of the limelight in book two. But to almost completely disappear in book three was just weird. The author can write. There’s no doubting that.
