i didn’t expect to read and visualize many moments/experiences that i could personally relate to while growing up in the philippines. despite it being a decades old book, i can identify various aspects of filipino values and culture that is ever present/reflected in Filipino society today.

it’s great he’s found his brothers but it’s the fact that they’ve both changed and no longer how he remembers them is what’s so painful to read :(

whoopsies i barley had time to read it these last few days but now im back ! ngl im more hooked on the story as i kept reading.
him navigating america as a new immigrant and having to face so much alone stirred something in me. it felt like a dull heartache from the relatability on trying to find your people in such a foreign place that wasn’t very welcoming. i can’t imagine what the next chapters will be like
