    I just can’t get enough of the nostalgia of this series. All I want to do is buy a radio and become a late night radio show listener again à la Delilah.

    I loved, loved, loved Maame, and I was excited to pick up Love By the Book. I like the idea of the novel, but the execution fell short for me. I feel like ~50 pages could have pretty easily been chopped with there being so much repetition and hang wringing. Not one I’ll pick up again, but I’ll still be planning to give Jessica’s next novel a shot!

    Weird and gripping. I feel like I’ll be thinking about D Day in particular for quite a while. I’ll definitely be picking this back up for a re-read at some point.

    I feel like there’s something in the water with several authors penning/releasing short story collections right now. I’m ending up way more into the trend than anticipated. A great next step for Khong after Real Americans in my opinion!
