Helpful Score: 1
A lot different from her previous books ("Typical American" and "Mona and the Promised Land"); I felt this book was a lot sadder in tone. It is written in a strange way, from multiple characters' perspectives, almost sounding like a newscast. The book is rather mellow and the "surprise" at the end isn't really much of a shocker. Jen does do a good job capturing the slow assimilation of LanLan into American culture.
