I enjoyed Anna and Quan and wanted gem to beak out of their confinement. I score this down only because it took so long for Anna to break free of family expectations.

I was sorry for Anna's father until he too broke free.

I loved the first book, the second was a little frustrating with the roundabouts but this one was chaotic in a lot of good ways. There was family struggles, loss, personal struggles (with slow personal growth), a budding love full of understanding. It was overall relatable to real world situations that could maybe even help the reader on a personal level. I wish we had a little more detail on what happened to characters that were let go from the m.c's life but it wasn't a huge loss to the story itself.
