Lit Chat with Lauren Ho (FB Live)
May 27, 2020 @ 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm
For our very first Facebook live Lit Chat session, we’re stoked to be speaking with Malaysian author Lauren Ho ahead of the June release of her debut novel, Last Tang Standing! Lauren will be talking about her book, her writing life, and taking your questions. Be sure to tune in!
Described as Crazy Rich Asians meets Bridget Jones’s Diary, this laugh-out-loud funny, sharply witty and charming novel is about the pursuit of happiness, surviving one’s thirties intact, and opening oneself up to love.
The story follows the hilarious adventures of Andrea Tang, an ambitious Chinese-Malaysian lawyer, as she navigates dating, friendship drama and familial expectations while climbing the corporate ladder in Singapore.
