I know I arrived late to the party but OMG I love this book… history, multi-generational themes of the immigrant family, love and loss… like could it get any better? It’s been 5 days and I’m halfway done already. Big plot twist happened and I was like😟 Also reading Middlemarch that Min Jin Lee coincidentally said was her favorite book in a recent interview…on my Min Jin Lee grind.
I’m only a few chapters in and so far it’s potentially one of my all time favorites. The writing style is so descriptive and enchanting and dramatic, as the complex relationships and backstories unfold.
Next time there’s a blizzard, I recommend going outside and eating a Hershey Kiss. The chocolate is better cold and enjoyed simultaneously with the wonders of nature.
And it was interesting. She uses political science, philosophy, and other systems to consider current issues and some really fascinating, relevant topics. I f with her vibe.
