In the Time of Our History is an intimate family portrait that seamlessly weaves grief, familial love, and cultural identity together in this beautiful story.

This book just never totally hit its stride for me. I think the analysis of familial and inter-generational relationships was incredibly well done, specifically the commentary on our innate longing for community. Overall I enjoyed the character development and writing style, but felt myself wanting a little more plot to sink my teeth into.

Bit dry of a start. Had to return it to the library...
