“Coconut Unlimited” is a short and sweet look back at the teenage years of three Asian boys. It‘s not a hard read but for me it wasn‘t all that interested either. I feel like it was intended for a much smaller audience and this story was lost on me. I enjoyed the first and last chapters, but the story in the middle gives this one 2 stars.

My full review is up on my blog now! 📚

Started this yesterday, really skipping through pages to find a good part...someone might need to bail me. I generally pretty much enjoy all books (with an exception of horror)...lets see. I'm still keen to finish it :)

...When I was out of sensible excuses, I played the race card and told Paul Fine straight: "Taping the album for you is selling out to the white man, letting him have our music. Nah, man. For us by us..."
"But you're not black."
"Fuck you, Fine. I'm politically black from an oppressed race. Don't speak to me about no race politics or I'll lynch you like you done to my people."
"I'm Jewish..."
"Whatever man. I ain't got no tapes.
