Balli Kaur Jaswal’s Now You See Us shows a side of Singapore that’s different from its glossy depiction in the well-known Crazy Rich Asians. Told from the points of view of three Filipina domestic workers, readers see the clash between the wealthy and the servant class; between traditional values and more modern, progressive attitudes; and between following one’s heart and conscience and following societal norms. Cora, Angel, and Donita each have their own struggles and secrets as well as differing conflicts with their employers, but they are all connected by a sense of loss—loss of family, independence, and identity as they live and work in a country that is not theirs. I really enjoyed this! I don't even know quite how to classify it as there is a murder mystery here but it also has elements of and reads like either contemporary or women's fiction.

Retrieved June 15, 2019.I *have* read both of Jaswal’s other books, which are British-Indian. This one is wildly different — Singaporean-Filipino. I love how this book is told through the alternating POVs of three migrant women in Singapore and enjoyed getting to know them, as it gave me a greater understanding of what workers like them are actually going through in reality.

Three woman who join together to rent a large space along the beach in Los Angeles for their stores—a gift shop, a bakery, and a bookstore—become fast friends as they each experience the highs, and lows, of love. The author does such an excellent job with setting scenes. The book was so visual that I felt I could picture Singapore. All of the little moments were so real. With so much spotlight on privilege and wealth, I think this narrative is critical and gives an interesting insight into the social commentary around a different class and culture.

The mystery angle itself is also probably the least important part of the book (in some ways) so if you're eager to play detective, I'd look elsewhere. Not saying you can't put your detective cap on and have a go at it but the perp is a bit predictable and even the eventual discovery isn't really the meat and potatoes of this story. The title alone is honestly enough to give you a sense of the overarching theme of this one, however, so in some ways I didn't feel like I needed to actually READ the book to 'get the point'. This is billed as a cross between Crazy Rich Asians and The Help, both of which I liked, so I thought I'd try it. It is true to the marketing campaign, being similar to both books, but it fell short for me. Peterson, Karen M. (December 3, 2019).
