Dial A for Aunties
by Jesse Q. Sutanto
I could not even begin to explain what happened in this book. It was pretty much the craziest most chaotic book I’ve ever read and I loved every single minute of it. So much their i may Jane sacrificed sleeping to stay up all night reading. It’s kinda hard to put down.
So... the story is about Meddy who accidentally kills her date ends up going through a series of increasingly crazy events when she gets the help of her mother and three meddling aunties to deal with the crime. The incident occurring the night before their family wedding business has a big even is inconvenient but they find a solution. Too bad the body ends up at the hotel and so many shenanigans ensue. Because Meddy didn’t have enough problems the love of her life that she broke up with years ago owns the hotel. Hide the body, pull off the wedding and get the guy... simple right? Nope not at all.
I could not stop laughing at all the various hijinx. The Aunties are rather awesome. Sure it’s a whole lot of stuff that wouldn’t happen in real life... I guess. But it was a great story. Despite all the crazy it was also kind of a journey of self discovery for Meddy who has long lived in the shadow of the eccentric personalities of the women in her family. She learned to finally step out and stand on her own and not let her family’s expectations be a burden to her. I loved the dynamic between the Aunties and how much they loved her that they were willing to do anything to protect her.
The only downside to this book really was that it had to end. I could read about the Aunties shenanigans forever.
