The Asian stereotypes present in this book are unacceptable, especially since this was written by a white person. The romance between Eleanor & Park also felt rushed and unbelievable at times.

I really enjoyed this book. It was a fast read, tugged at my emotions, and made me root for both main characters. There are some tough topics covered, so definitely read the content warnings first.  Would read more from this author.
