A review by lyricallit
We Were Dreamers: An Immigrant Superhero Origin Story by Simu Liu

emotional medium-paced

4.5

He tells his story with humor and raw honesty. I would have loved to hear a little more about the transition in his relationship with his parents from hostile to healing (therapy? influence of his grandparents? ) But the honesty on both his and his parents' part is truly admirable. He reads his memoir well, and the emotion in his voice when he chokes back tears talking about his grandparents knocked me flat.
