Goodreads asked Lauren Ho:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Lauren Ho I remember being at a friend's place, this accomplished lawyer with a string of accolades, and she was telling me why she was dreading going back home that Chinese New Year because she was still single in her late 30s and was definitely going to get grilled on this (I'm substituting "grill" in place of the string of expletives she actually used) by her aunties, and voilà—an opening chapter was born.
