Publisher's summary

A hilarious and heartwarming New York Times best-selling novel - the basis for the acclaimed major motion picture!

"There's rich, there's filthy rich, and then there's crazy rich.... A Pride and Prejudice-like send-up about an heir bringing his Chinese-American girlfriend home to meet his ancestor-obsessed family.” (People)

When New Yorker Rachel Chu agrees to spend the summer in Singapore with her boyfriend, Nicholas Young, she envisions a humble family home and quality time with the man she hopes to marry. But Nick has failed to give his girlfriend a few key details. One, that his childhood home looks like a palace; two, that he grew up riding in more private planes than cars; and three, that he just happens to be the country’s most eligible bachelor.

On Nick’s arm, Rachel may as well have a target on her back the second she steps off the plane, and soon, her relaxed vacation turns into an obstacle course of old money, new money, nosy relatives, and scheming social climbers.

Better Than the Movie

Many differences from the movie—but it’s even better!

Have the other two books in queue and cannot wait to read them!

Loved it!

It’s been a while since I wanted to just listen to a book while I sat. The story and performance was outstanding! Are the more books by Kevin Kwan?

New Favorite series!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Could not stop listening!

What does Lynn Chen bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I loved how she accomplished the multiple accents throughout the story

Different from movie! Book has an even better plot

The plot and climax was surprisingly different from what I remember of the movie. And now I prefer the original story in the book! The series is so so good!

Best narrator ever!

Loved every second of this! Hilarious and engaging and the narrator was able to capture the culture exquisitely. Great character and story development through this light hearted romance, while still bringing up difficult issues anyone can relate to. Great book. Great narrator. Great read :)

Absolutely amazing!

This book sat in my audible library for a month before my husband told me to read it. I had loved the movie so much I was hesitant to give it a try. But I absolutely LOVED it! From the moment I started I couldn't put it down. The ending varies a lot from the movie but it was a wonderful difference, and I could see how the screen writer paid homage to this book. There were so many characters that it could have felt overwhelming but instead it just helped you get more lost in the story and addicted to see what happens next. It did have some truly crude bits, but nothing so bad that it made it so I wouldn't recommend it to 90% of my friends.
