3.0

If there's anything I love more than a period piece, it's a lesbian period piece. That being said, this one was good not great. I wasn't bored, but I wasn't particularly invested either. It felt like the book was mainly centered around a series of lesbian coming-of-age clichés, and all the actually interesting stuff (which I wish the book spent more time focused on!) was the setting and the protagonist's Chinese-American identity.
