Amazing. Incredible. It always surprises me when a book perfectly captures my experiences as a child of immigrants, because in real life, I feel alone and the experience feels isolated. And the difficult mother daughter relationship, a strained relationship not because of the million reasons you are different, but for the many in which you are the same, was also very relatable to me. This book dug deep and described things I didn't have the words to. I don't yet relate to dealing with sickness and grief, thankfully, but the way it was written, I naively hope I never have to.
