Book description
I devoured this audiobook in one sitting-thanks to Jesse Q. Sutanto's razor-sharp humor and the perfect narration. Seriously, Mulan as a finance prodigy? Yes. And pretending to be her dad while dodging whiskey-brand aunts and falling for Shang? Chef's kiss.
Sutanto takes Disney's Mulan and flips it into a modern, hilarious rom-com where "burp twice as loud as the bros" isn't just a line-it's survival. Mulan's voice (in the audiobook, you feel her confidence and panic) is everything. She's got the smarts to navigate hedge fund deals but zero clue how to butcher a cow while convincing Shang's family she's her dad. The tension? Thick. The banter? Electric.
Emily Henry called Sutanto's last book "utterly charming," and this one? It's more. The audiobook nails every laugh-like Mulan's panic during a ranch retreat (axe-throwing? Really?), and the slow-burn spark with Shang. You'll hear the smirk in her voice when she emails "Fa Zhou" and the breathless gasp when their eyes meet.
It's not just romance-it's about breaking glass ceilings (literally, when Mulan accidentally smashes a whiskey bottle) and family love that's messy but real. The audiobook's pacing? Perfect. You'll be nodding along, laughing at Mulan's internal monologue ("Why is everyone so obsessed with cattle?"), and swooning when Shang says, "You're not him. You're you."
Sutanto's genius? Making high-stakes business feel as thrilling as a first kiss. And the narration? Smooth, warm, and full of personality-like your funniest friend telling you the best story ever. You'll want to press "repeat" on the scene where Mulan tries to "mentor" a calf.
This isn't just a retelling-it's a celebration of smart, stubborn women who refuse to shrink. And honestly? I'm still grinning about the "trough" line. Chef's kiss. If you love Dial A For Aunties or Beach Read, this is your next obsession. Trust me: you'll be quoting it to your friends.
