Some books are just built different. Gonna compare every book I ever read from now on to how this one made me feel. Never cried to a book but I came close.

Wake up babe a new favorite book dropped!

Beautifully written, opened up a part of history I did not know enough about, and utterly and devastatingly tragic.

DID NOT FINISH: 35%
Waaaay too depressing. It’s beautifully written but it was just too much trauma. I did skip ahead a bit so I would know what I was getting myself into. Maybe it’s because I’m also Chinese and it just hit too close to home or maybe it’s the times we live in now but it wasn’t that it was dark, but to me it just felt so hopeless. So in the spirit of learning to have boundaries, I noped out of finishing this book.
