Fake Dates and Mooncakes
by Sher Lee
The Good
Dylan and Theo are so sweet together. They come from different worlds but have a connection from the moment they meet.
I loved hearing about Singaporean food and culture in this book. Food and family is the center of this book and I loved how it was weaved in. The plot itself was okay. I should have realized that the 'Crazy Rich Asians' comparison meant there would be a lot of family drama. I liked the plot with Dylan's family more than the rich people mess.
The Bad
I thought the mooncake competition was going to be a bigger part of the story. The family drama, especially with Dylan's dad was pretty intense, especially since they're teenagers. Theo was constantly dragged into Dylan's family's games and I felt bad for him.
Format:
Audiobook — Libby
The Rating
I give this book a 3/5
