At first they are most definitely rivals, each of them staying at the office until the wee hours of the morning to have the billable hours that will help push them toward partnership, and to prove their dedication to the company. Her scenes were the only time I laughed out loud, especially when she shows up for an unexpected visit. She mistakes him for the staff because of his rumpled clothing, and willingness to listen to her make fun of rich people. Hilarious … Last Tang Standing is not just a novel about Asian women, it’s a story about women everywhere as we fight for our personal happiness, love and respect’ Nguyễn Phan Quế Mai , bestselling author of The Mountains Sing --This text refers to the paperback edition.
After all, we’ve survived dial-up internet, ’90 s television, and the days when shoulder pads were acceptable. If you think this is just a pretty much cliché story about discovering true love, then you are wrong. Despite not getting on with LTS, I was pretty happy to try this author again because of how much I initially loved the idea of the book.
Other than that, it was an okay time - Crazy Rich Asians, Bridget Jones's Diary plus Sex and the City all in one package. So here we go the story of Andrea, age 33, the lone unmarried member of her generation in the Tang Clan being labeled by her relatives as a lost girl (敗犬) despite her successful career as a corporate lawyer. I loved all the characters in this book, but especially the character Andrea ends up with ;);) A total joy, this is a romcom to look out for this summer. Also, Andrea's relationship with Suresh is sweet, mutually admirable, but most importantly, not overly cheesy. She eventually breaks up with Eric, around the time Suresh breaks up with his fiancee and moves to New York.
Last Tang Standing was such an unique read I totally recommend it for those who loved Crazy Rich Asians (even though they are so different) and The Hating Game (you will love the slow burn and jokes). We don’t share your credit card details with third-party sellers, and we don’t sell your information to others. Lastly, you may think that Last Tang Standing already sounds fun here, but isn't it Crazy Rich Asians all over again since it talks about family interference on the relationship? I definitely recommend reading Last Tang Standing to anyone who wants to spend a good time with a book.If you’d like to receive updates in your inbox, visit our subscribe page and sign up for the content you crave!
When I picked up Last Tang Standing, I was carrying the weight of a week long reading slump and I had absolutely no idea what I was stepping into; however, I certainly had not expected to step straight into what I had. But all all, this was still a read that you shouldn't miss out on and recommended to be on your radar once it comes out soon.She’s also self-loathing, and engages in the kind of casual fat shaming that would be right at home in Bridget Jones’s Diary. I appreciated having a woman of color depicted as a high-powered lawyer, and the neurotic lawyer archetype might be attractive to some readers. I love how Lauren unfolds the story and introduces each of the characters smoothly into Andrea's life. If a reader is troubled or hurt by what they’ve read then they should be able to say so without an author writing a whole goddamn blog post in response.
Great Deal
