Gissy I watched your review about this novel and I totally agree with your comments. I love that cover so I ordered it. Also, I subscribed to your channel🤗I will be alert to those books recommendations but I confess that sometimes I read trashy books🤷🏽‍♀️😂I‘m following also Britta Bohler, Eric Karl Anderson and recently watched some interesting Greg videos (Supposedly fun) and Savidgereads and his mom videos. I wish I could be a fast reader☺️ 13mo

Thank You, Mr. Nixon: Stories | Gish Jen

pick

This was an outstanding reading experience for me. I enjoyed seeing the ways the various characters cropped up and related to one another in these connected short stories. I really appreciated the exploration of different generational experiences, with stories set from the 70s through 2020s. The exploration of Chinese vs. American POVs was equal parts fascinating, humorous, and touching. One I‘ll be revisiting again for sure.
