Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet
by Jamie Ford
I really loved this book. Not much is written about the Japanese internment camps and how devastating it was for Japanese families. It's interesting to me that "white people" can't see the difference between Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, and other Asian nationals. I've never heard of a badge proclaiming a Chinese person, exempt amongst Japanese people. The historical aspect of this story was very interesting and the love story was really beautiful. I felt a little shortchanged with the "modern day" story. It was too easy for the girlfriend to get all the right information so fast. And the end happened too fast to please me. But oh how I loved the sensitive sweet story.
