No notes. Ng is an incredible storyteller who always draws you into the heartbreakingly beautiful tales she spins. While masterfully weaving in character development, Ng takes you on a journey as this interracial family struggles to find themselves as individuals and as a family unit. How Ng is able to bring in multiple POVs in each chapter and effortlessly transition from one to the other is beyond me. Her words are magic, and I can’t get enough.

This was an intense read for me, but very enjoyable. I like how all the characters' stories were shown in each of their POV, and intertwined in an orderly way. Great writing.

Really good book that made me reflect a lot on how our actions and words impact other people.  Also just a reminder to always be aware that other people are always going through tough things and to be kind.  Made me appreciate my loved ones a bit more after reading this book.
