some things that stood out to me: 
- realistic/relatable portrayal of the first generation immigrant experience 
- references chinese culture effortlessly and captures the feeling of tradition and cultural norms(?) so naturally 
- feels so good. like RELATABLE 
- writing style is easy to follow but so descriptive and illustrative
