This short stories collection is a great read for your spare time. I found clever wits here and there and as an introvert, I appreciate the specific nods of appreciation of introvertism.

Holy shit. I still cannot believe that this is a debut short story collection and the first book she’s ever written. Every single story was perfect. Heartwrenching. Even though I can’t relate to the Korean-American 1st & 2nd generation experience… there were so many parallels to my own experiences and my family’s. I’m absolutely blown away and eagerly awaiting a debut novel. It feels like stumbling upon an insanely gifted writer that will surely become more widely known in time.
