Book Review \u201cDial A for Aunties\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dial A for Aunties was originally published in April 17, 2021 and was written by the Chinese-Indonesian author Jesse Q. Sutanto. It is a book that capture the essence of Chinese-Indonesian culture and family dynamics combined with comedy, rom-com, heart-warming, and murder mystery themes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The book follows Meddelin Chen, a wedding photographer who accidentally kills her blind date. Instead of calling the police, she turns to her overbearing but well-meaning mother and three aunts for help. Things quickly spiral out of control when the corpse ends up at a high-profile wedding the family is working on\u2014and her college ex-boyfriend just happens to be there too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I loved the Asian culture described in the novel and the family dynamics in this book is really wholesome. Another thing I love about the book is the aunties who can be nosy at times and has good intentions. Their actions, dialogues and comedic timings are what make the book more captivating. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, some people might find the plot a bit unrealistic at times so if you are looking for a realistic and serious book, this is not for you. Overall, this book is perfect for people who loves to read light-hearted genre and looking for a good laugh. As for me, this book was a 4.5 stars read and it was my kind of humor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
