China Rich Girlfriend arrived about a week after its release, and I was very excited about diving right into the book.Ĭhina Rich Girlfriend features an ensemble cast of characters, most of whom appeared in the first book. When I found out that a sequel was coming out, I placed a request at the library months in advance. It was a delightful romp through Singapore (and other locations) that featured some of the wealthiest people in the world. Overall, I really enjoyed these books and I was happy to read something that didn’t have contrived social justice scenarios in order to advance the plot.Two years ago, I read Kevin Kwan’s debut novel, Crazy Rich Asians. Also, the reason for their inability to be together is because of an unjust law so that plays a part as well. Their relationship is the only one in the books that might be considered inappropriate, but it is only a small part of the story and is not one of the main characters.

In fact, one of the characters rejects abortion after finding out about a surprise pregnancy and instead chooses to give the baby up for adoption.

The sanctity of life, the importance of good friendships and a loving family as well as the vocation to marriage are all touched upon in these novels in a positive way. There is one use of the word “Damn” in the 4th novel, but other than that, the book is actually filled with a lot of catholic ideals. These four books are an enjoyable, easy read that delve you into life in the networks where everyone has access to magic. I was beginning to think it was the proverbial needle in a haystack.
