Leichte Unterhaltung. Die Rollen zwischen Gut und Böse sind klar verteilt, die Heldin hat eine Engelsgeduld, am Ende wird alles gut (naja, weitgehend), und dauernd wird lecker Essen beschrieben. Kann man sicher gut mit an den Strand nehmen.

Someone described this as trashy crack lit and that really sums it up. The story is so fun and feels like you’re hearing all the gossip around the family and those who are connected. I really loved the snappy gossipy type writing. The story knows what it is, it is just pure silly, gossipy fun.

Long and boring. Good combination where books are concerned.

Absolutely adored this!! Such a fascinating, scandalous, hilarious look into Singaporean high society. Loved all the vivid descriptions and characters. Definitely will be reading the rest of the series!
