June’s cancer diagnosis trumps Jayne’s dead-beat boyfriends, inability to attend class, and NYC-closet apartment. Sister relationships ebb and flow, sometimes you loathe them. Other times you put up with them because you have to.
Choi has an amazing way with words making you feel like you’re listening to a personal soundtrack of NYC. Yolk hit the nail on the head with a nostalgia that felt like visiting somewhere so familiar. It feels comfortable and uncomfortable simultaneously.
Also, this book cover is just perfect. *chefs kiss*
