Reflective read that could only have been written by an Asian person, because it captures so well the intense pressure parents put on their children lol. Lots to digest on mixed race marriages, feels of inferiority, family trauma, and gender. Felt like the queer part of the story wasn't developed enough and was just included as a throwaway.
