Geesh, thats definitely a finish to a trilogy, it was a nice wrap up that felt realistic and true to the characters past! I really was obsessed with these stories while reading them, or well at least all of them except kitty, I really just don't care for her. I get her backstory and how she went about things and how she grew to a certain extent but i would still hate to be around her. But everyone else i just had to take a minute ute and i realise that everyone got what they need and what creates happiness which is all I want...
Running to read the final installment of the Crazy Rich Asians trilogy was a disappointment. It felt rushed and unorganized compared to the first two. The stories dragged in a more dreary way with a half of page of jammed in shock factor to give it a "draw". The characters lacke anything interesting and was more of a forced producer terrible season of a reality show. Even the epilogue was random closure with no true sentimental along the way.
The lavish and hilarious novel took me to places I wish to travel to in the near future. Every character was a delight and I found myself laughing along the way. 😉
