really lovely, touching book. I love a good family anthology! It had so much great, thoughtful prose that I could’ve highlighted a majority of the book, especially in Meilin’s passages. I loved how the elements of Meilin’s stories carried throughout the book. Hard to believe that this is Melissa Fu’s first novel, the themes, prose and characters are all top notch. I also found myself learning quite a bit more of China and Taiwan’s history than I knew before!
