Perfekte Beschreibung: Kind of like an episode of Real Housewives except there's no discernible storyline and just before the final ad-break they all become super woke??? Except the characters become socially aware in an I-saw-one-surface-level-TikTok-about -this-extremely-complicated-issue-so-now-I'm-an-expert kind of way. Like, one of them has a random outburst about how gender is a spectrum for no real reason, and it's never discussed, analysed, or considered ever again?

I miss when rich people wrote about being rich in a fun way. Instead this kind of became a "social issues" tick-list. No nuance, just vibes.

Pluspunkte weil ich es sehr schnell lesen konnte

I truly did not enjoy this book. The cover story lured me in for a good read but it felt more like a monotonous biography of 3 different women in the same family that I slowly became uninterested in reading about as I got deeper into the book. Often times, I felt that I was reading celebrity gossip like in the tabloids. There was no plot, characters were underdeveloped, and the story lacked any substance. Tackling a story about the lives of the top 1% may be challenging but weaving a tale of interclass marriages could have great potential that this novel was unable to achieve.

Honestly kinda boring, like their lives are not that interesting. I did not care about the storylines for the most part, some of the parts grabbed my interest.
