There was so much prose in this book that could have been left out and the story would still have been told, but it wouldn’t have made the book what is it, a deep dive into the complexities of growing up and living cross culturally.
Overall it was a good read and I’m glad I stuck with it.
Graphic: Rape, Abortion, Infidelity, Miscarriage, and Alcohol
Moderate: Addiction and Suicide attempt
Minor: Blood, Vomit, Toxic relationship, and Terminal illness
