LoveReading Says
If you loved Jessie Sutanto's debut Dial A For Aunties, then look no further for your next funny fiction. If you read the first, you already know Meddy Chan, her traditional, unconventional, totally sweet but also crazy family, featuring her larger-than-life mum and gaggle of Chinese Indonesian aunties.
Well, in this latest instalment, Meddy has pulled it off. Her special day has arrived, and she can't wait to marry her college sweetheart, Nathan. Instead of having Ma and the aunts cater to her wedding, Meddy wants them to enjoy the day as guests. You'll be crying with laughter at more zany comedy and farcical results from the aunties. So beloved as the aunties, that we hear we are to expect more hijinks from them in future books, so read this book, enjoy every addictive turn of the page and watch this space for more from Sutanto.
