Meh.... 2.5. It was only fine but I take off points for the gross yet predictable much-older-white-man-falls-for-9-year-old-Asian-girl-but-not-in-a-gross-way-I-swear. The story was fine. The time jumping didn't work for me and I didn't particularly like any of the characters but it still held my attention. Obviously stuff evolves over the course of the book but in the middle of it I was sort of offended by the way we were framing immigration and being Chinese/Chinese American. Would not reread
