There was a couple of minor moments in which I felt another proof read would have done it justice in order to iron out a few mistakes. Near the end of the book, something happened out of the blue, I completely didn't expect it. However finding out about it was very abrupt and almost felt like the chapter should have ended with me questioning what the result was. (Sorry, trying not to put any spoilers in.)
Overall it was an easy, funny read, that tackled some serious issues in a light hearted way. It has certainly inspired me to get up and get what I want from life!

An unspecified dead body appears in the first chapter, and the book then goes on to tell us the sequence of events that lead up to that moment. There are some interesting police interviews tucked in now and again too, that help to clarify (or sometimes obfuscate!) what is actually going on.
This was really good. There was no way that I was going to guess who was murdered and by whom, until the end - I liked that touch. The end was a proper bombshell moment. Great writing from Lisa Jewell!

Rachel Chu is thrust into the lifestyle of the crazy rich in Singapore when she and her boyfriend Nick travel to attend a wedding of Nick’s best friend. She is treated horribly by Nick’s traditional family and their friends, who are trying their best to get her out of the picture. We follow as Rachel learns about Nick’s past and family, secrets of her own past, and see her struggle to figure out who she is or what she should do.
The book changes perspective every chapter, so you really get the back story on and thoughts of all the main characters. You learn about this lifestyle that is so extravagant I couldn’t even dream that big. I really enjoyed it and can’t wait to pick up the next book!
