i’ve been looking for a multi generational book about chinese immigrants for so long as i am chinese and very much into history i give it a 4 but most of the rating is because of meilins story once renshu goes to america i found myself wishing that she’d just go back to meilin idk i think it’s because i found the characters in america were insufferable especially rachel i liked that she wanted lily to know her heritage but then she’d let her parents call her child a gook i’m biracial too i know what it’s like to have terrible white grandparents yet nobody said don’t call your grandchild a gook
