My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is much more literary than mystery, but I'd go ahead and call it a literary mystery. Fast-paced, interesting, and extremely thoughtful, I'd recommend it generally - especially in October.

Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan

Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

It was entertaining, but there were too many characters and I wasn't very invested in the vast majority of them. I felt like the main reason I was able to follow so many of the characters was that I saw the movie first so I could picture the characters in the movie. Some of the characters were better and more developed in the book, like Nick's best friend Collin. But I thought Rachel Chu and Nick's mom were a little better developed in the movie.

Also, the ending in the book was pretty meh.
