I finally finished this memoir! You can't help but hear her on every page. If you want to know more about her, I'd definitely recommend.

I mean, sometimes people assume I'm like them in ways I'm not, and that sucks, but other times they think I'm different in ways I don't feel different, and that sucks too.

Vika17 Perfectly describes growing up as an immigrant. 8y

I wasn't actually in love, but I felt a sort of tender curiosity.

"Look at it, and think of me." "I CAN'T STOP THINKING OF HER."

Quiet and intimate. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Tigers in Red Weather | Liza Klaussmann

This story about family allows a cast of deeply flawed, yet elegantly crafted characters be the focus. Told from five points of view, the novel explores the idea that the way we see ourselves isn't always harmonious with how the world views us in return.

Milk and Honey | Rupi Kaur

You tell me I am not like other girls and learn to kiss me with your eyes closed. Something about the phrase - something about how I have to be unlike the woman I call sisters in order to be wanted makes me want to spit your tongue out. Like I am supposed to be proud you picked me, as if I should be relieved you think I am better than them.
