I loved the art style and enjoyed the story. I liked how Ha used color palette to indicate when she was returning to the past and how she wove her mother's story into her own. Overall, a very raw and emotional story.

As an immigrant i related to this book a lot, a lot of the things were very reminiscent to experience i’ve had. Especially because i am close to Chuna’s or Robins age. Super interesting and a beautiful book. Highly recommend it.

I always find memoirs hard to review since it kind of feels like you're rating a person’s life. I did really like this one, though. It felt like a very honest look at family and belonging. I have never been transplanted to another country like that and my family situation isn't similar but this story was still told in a way that was very relatable.
