Family Style: Memories of an American from Vietnam by Thien Pham

emotional funny hopeful inspiring reflective fast-paced

4.5

Thien’s story from Vietnam to America included a lot of food and experiences that stuck with him over time, which resulted in this story. I loved how every chapter opened up with food images that made an impact during his childhood to adulthood, meaning something to him during that time. He experienced struggles growing up, but concluded his story with a happy moment of obtaining his citizenship.
