Fresh Off the Boat: A Memoir by Eddie Huang

2.0

I picked up this book thinking it would be funny. It was not. I enjoyed the bit about him growing up well enough. We are about the same age and I can relate to having parents that were wise enough not to buy every Starter jacket, etc. Parts of the book were very hard to read- he got himself in some pretty serious trouble when it was clear he could avoid it by taking a different path. He seems like he has a bit of a chip on his shoulder. I am glad he found something he loves. Hope the restaurant makes it or that he has wised up from his mistakes from his youth.
