A review by lexicahill
In the Time of our History by Susanne Pari

4.0

I guess technically all Americans (unless you are a Native American descendant) are immigrants or children/grandchildren/etc. of immigrants. I am far removed from “new immigrant” status though so I didn’t think that I’d feel a personal connection to this story. I quickly learned though that no matter where you’re from the human experience proves that we can share similarities with anyone. I think I related most to Mitra (for better and worse) and enjoyed watching her character growth over the course of not only the year that passed in the book but also her entire life as told in remembrances throughout the story.
