pickThis was an outstanding reading experience for me. I enjoyed seeing the ways the various characters cropped up and related to one another in these connected short stories. I really appreciated the exploration of different generational experiences, with stories set from the 70s through 2020s. The exploration of Chinese vs. American POVs was equal parts fascinating, humorous, and touching. One I‘ll be revisiting again for sure.
