There was a lot of interesting insight into Sri Lankan immigrant culture. But by the end of the book I just feel like the main character had hardly changed at all, or made any significant changes to her life. She does somewhat reconcile with her mom, but it still doesn't feel like there's enough of a conversation between them about all of the resentment that her mom's homophobia has caused.
