This book surpassed all the of the well-deserved hype I've encountered for it. 
 It's been a long time since I've read such an honest and non-judgemental portrayal. Yes, this is about a tragedy. It never makes light of it, but neither does it wallow in it. Rather Ng crafts some lovely, flawed humans who I'm extremely invested in. 
 I was extremely moved by this book. I don't have much more to say right now, and I don't know that much more needs to be said. I can't wait to snap up everything Celeste Ng puts out from here on out.
