I read this book long ago before the movie came out in 1993. Love the format of each mother and daughter sharing their stories chapter by chapter. I'm glad I reread this one. The family stories are filled with challenges, determination and love.

⭐️⭐️. Meh — either Tan needed to specify which Auntie was talking, or the audio needed a larger cast. It was too hard to follow the disjointed vignettes to really get into the book.
