Status Updates From Una vera americana (Italian...

May’s part of the story which is mostly just historical fiction about living in communist China. It was well written I think but maybe a bit too on the nose political for me. The relationships were interesting at least.

I think the book is good though in the way it does the separate stories at different times. Keeps it from becoming monotonous. But yeah this section felt emotionally distant—more tell than feel.

every choice nick makes pisses me off and makes me cringe simultaneously PLEASE stop pushing away your mom who actually cares abt you and idealizing your dad who you’ve never had a relationship w over top of her !! listen to her perspective stop shutting her out omg also OF COURSE if you get w a girl while she has a bf she’ll do the same to you later on why would that be a shock to you
