Sadly I didn’t like it that much. The dialogues are very emotionless. I didn’t care for the flashbacks (or whatever) of Lily’s family. I didn’t see the purpose of the lists with the historical events. The side plot with Shirley and her bf was unnecessary and pointless, because it didn’t have a climax.
PS: Also I was very irritated by the choice of the author to put words with chinese chatacters into the book. I coincidentally started another book with Chinese protagonists right after this one, the author also puts Chinese words in it but I am actually able to read them.
🤷🏽♀️ Overall: meh
