A review by daumari
Dial A for Aunties by Jesse Q. Sutanto

4.0

A little hard to bin- the colors and setting (hijinks ensue at a high profile wedding Meddy's family services, while she runs into an old college ex) would lead you to think this is romance, but there's also a dead body and criminal shenanigans afoot which feels a little more mystery, except we definitely saw who killed him and now we're just trying to mitigate the fall out... overall this was fun, though- just think how Crazy Rich Asians could've been if there was also a bit of Weekend at Bernie's (which I'll be honest, I've never seen though I know the general premise). It's a slightly different take on wealthy southeast Asian Chinese diaspora wedding craziness, though the last third goes completely off the rails as all various plots tie together.

I'll definitely read the next one when I next come across it at the library.

also yes I stuck my queerreads tag on here though again, it's a late in the game aspect so I wouldn't come here primarily for queer rep.
