I’ve been to Singapore on a layover, but other than that, I’ve never been to the country and wasn’t sure what to expect. I’ve learned so much about the food, culture, customers, landscape and geography of this part of the world from this book. This was an enjoyable read and the characters felt well crafted and I was able to keep track of all the players. I liked reading the book, but I feel like tbe movie was better executed. There were a few characters that didn’t need to be in the story and a few plot points that felt unnecessary.
