Hey guys! Halka blah! Let's try again! Hello guys and welcome back to another video from Ling Ling! Ling Ling is back! Yes! I have no introduction anymore because I'm used to making the vlogs now so I don't remember what I said before and I can't say vlog because this is obviously not a vlog because I'm just talking to you guys like this so yeah I need to work on that one. Sorry for that. I hope it's not too confusing. Anyway, let's get started. Today I want to make a book review for this book and this book. Yay! I hope you are excited because I am very much so without further ado let's get stock it. Yeah! The first book I want to talk about is called Crazy Richation by Kevin Kwan. Yeah, he is a Singaporean born author based in America and how did I bomb into this book? I don't know actually. I think I was reading some post book reviews on my friend Joss Lin's website called Speaking of China. Really, really interesting website about her life in China and like married with Chinese men and etc. Anyway, she's doing book reviews once in a while so I think I just stumbled upon it and I was like oh that sounds interesting so I bought it on Amazon and yeah I don't have it here in it. Like I can't show you. I can only show you a picture because the book is actually in Denmark so I didn't bring it to China so I had to buy it online again but I bought an online version, cheaper of course. So yeah, I don't have it in my hand here. I'm sorry for that. I hope that's okay. Anyway, so Crazy Richation basically is about a girl called Rachel and she is totally crazy in love with her Chinese, no not Chinese, Chinese hair and church boyfriend. He's born and raised in Singapore and then they're both working in New York so that's where they meet and then one day he wants her to go to Singapore to visit him and his family for some vacation and yeah, something crazy is just happening. Like she arrives there and she discovers oh my god, he's like super rich and everyone around him is super rich. And yeah, they just bump into tons of different problems and then you follow different stories from the people around him in this Singaporean rich society. It's so interesting. In the beginning I was like so confused so many different characters but when you get to know them you're just like oh my god, I need more and more and more. I need to read more. So of course, after finishing the first book I was so eager to get started on the second book which is called and I just checked the second title. It's called China Rich Girlfriend. So yeah, anyway I bought the second book also online version. That's why I can just show you the picture here and I read it and it literally took me less than two weeks and I'm like super busy right now so I have no idea how I manage that but because it's just such a great book and because I already knew the characters from the first book you know so I felt like I was already on great terms with everyone like I knew who they were and I was not really confused when I started. I was you know just continuing the story or my how to say like continuing my journey with these characters and then you get introduced to a few more but still and like there is so much drama. It's amazing. Wow, yeah it's just two really really good books. The second book is where when Rachel and her husband, no not her husband, her boyfriend, Nick, the Singaporean guy his name is Nick. So Rachel and Nick are gonna get married and Nick is not talking to his parents anymore because of problems from the first book and everything goes wrong to the wedding and then they go back to Singapore and they go to China for some vacation because of some other problems and it turns into even more disassos and oh my god I was just on my toes during the whole book I was just like I need to know what's going on what's gonna happen and the end was horrible because it was open you know. Oh damn it I was just like no no no you can't leave me here when I finished the last page page I was literally like crying out I was like no you cannot leave me hang here like no you cannot tell me what is gonna happen with these people. So I really really hope that he's gonna make number three if not I'll be very sad because there are a lot of loose ends and I know that I'm sorry Tyler but when I read a book I really want to know what's gonna happen and I don't want to make my own endings anyway. Yeah lacy me I know anyway it's just great entertainment those two books like I just had to share with you guys if you want to know more about like contemporary Singaporean society and Chinese society. The second book obviously is mostly focusing on China and the rich people in China the Fuhar Dai. Fuhar Dai. The second generation rich young people in China which is very much a thing and when I read it I recognize and not a lot of things that I see here so you get a great introduction to contemporary Chinese society which I think is amazing like it's entertainment and you also learn something maybe not learn that much you learn a lot of very expensive brands you get to know a lot of expensive brands but anyways this is two really really lovely books you should definitely go and check them out and the greatest part is that Kevin Cohen announced on his Facebook that they're gonna make a movie out of his book and the cast is only going to be Asian people. Asian American actors I don't know how much you know about this but there's been a lot of discussions about white washing and Hollywood and how American white actors they play Asian characters in the movies instead of hiring Asian actors. So yeah I think that's amazing it's gonna be so interesting interesting to see how they do this it seems like the producer or director something is also going to be it's also Asian American so you should follow Kevin Cohen on his Facebook so you can check out when that's gonna go live as well I'm so excited for this to happen it's really really interesting to see how they're gonna make this and see if they're gonna Americanize it just like they do with so many other things you should check out these two books I'm gonna leave links below for the Amazon page go and find it either by the new version or by the second hand like I love them Amazon because they have second hand as well so you don't have to spend all of your hard earned money on this thing but yeah it's definitely worth to go there and have a look so that was all for this video today I hope you enjoyed my little book review here it's the first time I'm doing a book review I don't know if you guys would like to please let me know if you guys would like to see more of these book reviews please let me know in comments below I have a lot of Chinese books I want to review I'm going to start reading a new one just about now because you know that the Wi-Fi here is very emotional you might say so I use that to you know spend my time when Wi-Fi is off or too slow to do anything about it because if you get angry every time you're gonna get angry a lot and that would be a waste of your time so anyway I hope you guys have a great day evening wherever you are and I'll see you again very soon see ya and say bye bye
