Sex and Vanity by Kevin Kwan

 

What a fun read! I was excited when I saw this because I really enjoyed Kwan's series that started with Crazy Rich Asians. This book is along the same vane of Asians and Americans and what is a good mix and not. There is a lot more new money, name dropping, and internal struggle.

Lucie, the main character, is caught between what is appropriate and what she wants. The struggle with her roots and her inner self do lead her astray, but she does find her way and the ride is a good one. 

Kwan has a great writing style and this was just as good as his first books. If you haven't had a chance to read those I highly recommend them too. If you want a nice easy read that will make you laugh and shake your head this summer this is a good choice.
