This book is amazing. The art is beautiful, the writing is wonderful, and has a nostalgic feel to it. It made me cry, it's got so much heart. I'm going to edit and update this after I let it sink in some more since I just finished it, but definitely a recommendation from me!!  
Very mild spoilers for the ending (if you need it!)
It ends happily between the mom and the main character,  Tíên. Just in case you were wondering!
