2.5

One of my most anticipated reads that, sadly, didn’t quite live up to expectations. I really appreciated the introduction to Malaysian culture - something I have not read about before - but the plot became quickly muddled with too many points. 

I’d have really liked it to focus more clearly on the relationship between Jessamyn and her family.
