A review by itslorei
Lies and Weddings by Kevin Kwan

4.0

This is my very first Kevin Kwan novel, and I would say I was a bit challenged through its writing as a whole. It is something that I'm not sure if I like or dislike, but as for the content in this novel, I think it fits well.

Lies and weddings are probably more of drama and something elite, classism and sociopolitical in content rather than a romance novel. If you're more drawn to romance, I think this might throw you off.

That being said, this is really something chaotic, in my opinion, specifically the characters. As someone who's Asian, I can really attest that some of the rep here are also present in Filipino households.

As for the characters, same with my opinion on the writing, I'm not sure if I love them? I would say I was more inclined and focused on the drama revolving around the characters. Although, I'm sure I hate Arabella.

I also would like to add that part towards the ending? I was hoping for more drama there, actually.

Overall, I would say I was entertained with the whole events.

Things to note in this novel:

○ drama focused
○ sociopolitical
○ elite, classism
○ aggressions
○ toxicity
○ financial problems
○ fashion
○ minimal romance
