One Amazing Thing by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni

4.0

Nine strangers are trapped in a visa office after an earthquake rocks the city. All come from different backgrounds, ethnicities, and cultures. To pass the time, one of them suggests that they tell a story of a time that was important to them, "one amazing thing". The stories were wonderful and explained how different their lives are. I thought this book was beautifully written. I would have given it five stars, but I felt it got a bit confusing with so many characters. I would recommend this book to others.
