So beautifully written and creative with the storytelling structure. On the surface it might seem similar to a memoir like crying in hmart but this one dives deeper into the individuals, relationships, and Okinawa’s history. Despite the strong emotional moments and serious topic matter still manages to have funny and warm moments too.

Amazing memoir to start the year. Elizabeth Miki Brina does not hold back as she wrestles with identity and family bonds through a gorgeous narrative voice. It is beautiful, raw, important, and we are lucky it exists!
