I wasn't too excited when I realized this was a pandemic story, but I shouldn't have doubted Kelly Yang! I was pleasantly surprised by such a lovable MC as Knox with his ADHD and big heart! The portrayal of sibling relationships was great too!

I haven‘t read this one yet, but it‘s on my short list! Kelly Yang is such a great addition to middle grade literature! #temptingtitles #withnew @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
pickI love how “consistently courageous “ Yang‘s novels always are. This one is no exception. Three sibs who were raised in Hong Kong leave for America at the beginning of the pandemic. They leave their father behind. This bighearted novel deals with families apart, sibling relationships, navigating uncertainty, ADHD, and anti-Asian hate. But most of all love.
pickI somehow forgot to post my review of this book, a story inspired again by Yang‘s own experiences. The Wei-Evans family is living abroad when a new & dangerous disease, COVID-19, reaches Hong Kong. Deciding it‘ll be safer in the US, the family returns home except for dad who has to stay for work. A story of uncertainty, compassion, hope, resilience, family, bigotry, & belonging, Yang has penned a fantastic, heartwarming story. On sale 3/1/22.
