Thank you Harper Collins for this book in exchange for an honest review

Synopsis:

At thirty-three, Andrea Tang is living the dream: she has a successful career as a lawyer, a posh condo, and a clutch of fun-loving friends who are always in the know about Singapore’s hottest clubs and restaurants. All she has to do is make partner at her law firm and she will have achieved everything she (and her mother) has ever worked for. So what if she’s poised to be the last unmarried member of her generation of the Tang clan? She doesn’t need a man to feel fulfilled, no matter what her meddling relatives have to say about it. 

But for a dutiful Chinese-Malaysian daughter, the weight of familial expectations is hard to ignore. And so are the men life keeps throwing in Andrea’s path. Men like Suresh Aditparan, her annoyingly attractive rival for partner and the last man she should be spending time with, and Eric Deng, a wealthy entrepreneur whose vision for their future is more lavish than she could have imagined. With her workplace competition growing ever more intense, her friends bringing dramas of their own to her door, and her family scrutinizing her every romantic prospect, Andrea finds herself stretched to the breaking point. And she can’t help but wonder: In the endless tug-of-war between pleasing others and pleasing herself, is there room for everyone to win?

Review:

This book has a lot of heart and laughed that are draped across the pages.

You let a mix of Crazy Rich Asian in this book, except the character works hard to create her own name, rather than come from a well known family.

You meet Andrea Tang who is in her mid 30’s and is smart, hilarious and dependable. Andrea comes from a Singapore – Chinese family and has an amazing job that she isn’t a huge fan of. Andrea is that kind of single person that throws herself into her work, going into the office on the weekends and spends a great deal of time thinking about her job and disheartened as she watches others rise the social ladder around her. Andrea must find her way not only in the working world but in her social life as well and what that means for her and her family.

This book was funny, entertaining and really well written. It is that kinda of book that you real on Saturday afternoon with a nice cocktail in hand while lounging around the house. It was a relatable and hilarious book that is guaranteed to make you laugh.
