This book was so much fun!! I was having such a blast the entire way through—from the beginning, I was laughing at all of the shenanigans, and by the end, I was STARVING. For real—I was especially craving xlb and egg tarts 🤤
Even with all of the humor and lightheartedness, there was still the moments of drama and tension (and yes, I did shed a few tears at the end). But I never doubted our main cast would make it past everything and get their happy ending 🧡 Ultimately, this was a quick read that I had so much fun with!

Okay this was good 🥺 Hilarious and heartwarming all at the same time, and highlighted Chinese culture and traditions so well. 

Have to admit some parts were already a bit predictable (especially if you're a fan of Crazy Rich Asians 😂), some themes could have been explored more, and the romance could have had more to it, but I just enjoyed reading this a lot. I think it's because the writing style and the humor was just excellent. 

Big thanks to Fully Booked PH and Get Underlined for sending over an e-arc my way! (This, of course, did not affect my overall opinion of the book.)
