 Fiona and Jane - Fiona and Jane, both Taiwanese American, met in second grade. This short story collection follows them for more than two decades. I liked the way it showed the ebb and flow of friendship and it’s exploration of sexual identity. The format was one story from Jane’s perspective then one from Fiona’s but I often struggled to tell them apart. An enjoyable read but not one that will stick with me.
