As a part of a DINK couple, like these characters Keru and Nate, and also as part of a couple whose families are hilariously mismatched, I loved the insight and wit in this novel. The story is pretty simple: Two vacations five years apart in which the couple reckon with the pressures of their families.
This is a really great one-day read -- my first experience reading Weike Wang. And I loved it. I wanted more!
