A review by sarahlawton
Sex and Vanity by Kevin Kwan

medium-paced

• Loveable characters? No

2.0

Leaving aside the whole discussion of this versus Crazy Rich Asians, this book was not very good. My biggest issues with it were that the characters were not terribly well-developed (or in Lucy‘s case pathologically childish and selfish that felt like it suddenly came out at the end) and a plot that felt like it was incredibly rushed and could‘ve been better fleshed out. Or maybe even that he had ambitions to make it longer but gave up? Rather disappointing.
