Dial A for Aunties is by Jesse Q. Sutanto. A hilarious realistic fiction multi-cultural novel. Meddelin Chan works for the family wedding business with her Indonesian mother and three aunties. Her mother sets her up on a blind date the day before the biggest wedding the family has ever worked, one that could make or break the family business. When Meddy accidentally kills her date, the aunties decide to help her get rid of the body. The "Weekend at Bernies" type scenario that follows is wildly unrealistic, but still charming. A fun read and enjoyable rom-com.
Ratings: 11th grade - 9 out of 10 - P (profanity) - AC (mature thematic content).
