Excellent Little Book with Big Ideas
Excellent book. Easy read. Addresses deep matters in a direct and not-too-heavy manner. Recommended by my 28 year-old nephew, I'm a 50 year old woman, so good all-around.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

A story of lonely and isolated children
Kids are cruel! When your dad is Chinese and your mother is not your life can be very lonely. An ambitious mother and a father who feels like an outcast definitely project this onto their children. Escape is the only answer.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Story of a family who has suddenly lost a teenager.
In the very first sentence, we find out that a girl has died. It remains a mystery how or why. Then the story unravels of what led up to the day she died, as seen through the eyes of her parents and brother and sister. It's a story about families and secrets and favoritism, and hurts that result from a lack of open communication.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Hooked
I was enthralled from the beginning, and enjoyed the varying points of view in the narrative. It captures, in my opinion, what it is like to be a human, with our flaws, sometimes blinding emotion and questionable decision making, our need to find acceptance. Shipped quickly, in excellent condition.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

This is a page turner!
I couldn't put it down and read it in two days. I especially enjoyed the depiction of growing up in the US and looking different than everyone else.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
