Everyone raves about this book and is reading it in their book clubs but it wasn’t my favorite. The story has a good concept and is easy to follow but moves slowly and I thought the end was weird. The premise of the book is that a young black couple gets separated after a year of marriage when the husband is wrongfully sent to jail. Will the marriage survive incarceration? Would the marriage have survived had he not gone to jail? The story touches on relationships with parents, in-laws, and opposite gender friends.
I really liked this book and am looking forward to seeing the movie at some point. My only regret is that I didn’t create some type of family tree when starting the book to help me keep track of all the names and relationships. At times it was hard to remember how certain characters were related. The story is about the ultra-rich in Singapore. A son (considered the catch of the country) is bringing home his girlfriend from America and she does not understand the world she is walking into. The family travels in private planes, lives in homes not found on Google Maps, and has special Indian bodyguards for protection. Will his family and friends accept her?
