Summer is traditionally the season for light reading, and right now we might be more in need than ever of something effervescent. Enter — thank goodness — Kevin Kwan. The author of the delightfully frothy "Crazy Rich Asians" trilogy is back with a new novel, just in time for all those vacations we're not taking. His new book isn't a continuation of the ultrarich Young family's "Crazy Rich Asians" world (though alert readers will notice at least one cameo appearance by a beloved character from the trilogy); instead, it's an homage to E.M. Forster's "A Room with a View," set in the present and crammed full of over-the-top wedding weekends, designer clothes and name-dropping.
