The story itself was beautiful and it was very easy to draw parallels to my own life as someone who also immigrated to the United States from a non-English speaking country. However, the pacing was kind of too slow for me and the writing style made it harder to read. Overall, if you love reading memoirs, I would highly recommend this book.
