Review of Jade Chang’s The Wangs Vs. The World

10 Word Review: Wealthy family loses everything during the financial crisis, hilarity ensues!


Spoiler Free Review: I really enjoyed this book! It was funny and touching, though it does take a bit to warm up to some of the characters! I think it’s also a fantastic representation of how the U.S. got into the financial crisis, and includes one of the best explanations I’ve seen yet. It’s simple, to the point, and well illustrated!


I thought that this was an interesting twist on the classic immigrant story. The ending was completely fitting and I did grow to really care for the characters. I’d definitely recommend it!
