i expected more tbh. the first half was way too slow and the ending felt very rushed. i liked it nevertheless but it’s not as good (in my opinion) as many praise it to be

I adore this book a lot. SO well researched!! I adore the characters alot, ironically especially Lily's family :) And it was so interesting to read about the historical setting and the life of Chinese Americans in that time period as well. It genuinely felt so real and honest. Very glad I was able to read this story!
