A review by ohsoyhappy
American Panda by Gloria Chao

3.0

This was a quick, cute little story that also highlights the pressure and personal fight we have every day as Asian-Americans stepping from one culture at home to another at school. It goes in depth the struggles of finding who we are as a person as well as trying to disappoint our families. I found some of the things that went on in this novel to be extreme, but it is fictitious. I enjoy the fluffy, light, romance of Mei and Darren but it was just that.
