A review by bookwormdaily
The Majesties by Tiffany Tsao

4.0

 “We’re sick, Doll. Gravely ill.” 

 

This book talks about rich Chinese-Indonesia family, their privilege and what they need to do to get to their position now. It is very dense since it also covers so many horrible acts of politics in Indonesia. it has family drama, love, and sisterhood combined. 

At first, I find a little bit difficult to catch up with the pace and plot line, but as the story goes I became more intrigued with the story that was being told and wanted to know more. 

The main learning aspect that I got from this book is to have empathy despite the privilege that I have.
