Liked: I loved the stories concerning the mothers. The immigrant experience and how that experience will shape how you raise your children.

Disliked: The stories of the mothers vs. the daughters did not intertwine as well as I hoped. The daughters all married or dated very stereotypical white men. I know it happens, hell, I am a product of it myself. I just wanted a little more background as to why.
The daughters were all pretty docile, submissive and indecisive. Are we though? ;) Not a stereotype I recognize from my family or friends.
