National Parks: A Second Chance Multicultural Romance
by Laikyn Meng
National Parks is a romance novel that spans a decade and countless beautiful settings our protagonists visit throughout. It's sometimes light and cheerful, but it also boldly tackles rough topics such as belonging as a multicultural person, family dynamics, traumatic events and mental health (warning - this gets really dark).
I particularly enjoyed the almost-poetry used whenever a character had a moment of introspection, that expressed the depths of human emotions in a very raw way. There's also lots of spice, which I normally don't mind, but in this instance it felt vulgar and jarring compared to the rest of the writing.
Overall, National Parks entranced me with the will-they-won't-they dynamic, imperfect protagonists, and a rollercoaster of a story. Unfortunately it fell a bit short around the spicy scenes, but a solid read nonetheless.

I've received an advance copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
