A review by librariana
Pioneer Girl by Bich Minh Nguyen

3.0

There were elements of this I truly enjoyed: the speculative history, the possible links/connections to a literary figure, the research adventure to solve the mystery... and the parallel mother-daughter relationships as well as the immigrant experience and cultural expectation, some of which I could relate to... but the storytelling itself still didn't feel complete or fully fleshed out. Still, I'm curious to read other works by this author and see what those stories may have to offer.
