Average and lacklustre
This is a rather strange book. Not because of the subject matter, but because it's well written yet with a strangely average and lacklustre plot.

I'm not entirely sure if this book is meant to be a commentary on Chinese culture or immigrants, but for me it didnt come across that way. The majority of the characters aren't particularly likeable in many different ways, and the whole story seemed a little pointless as the characters didn't appear to have developed much after all of the events that had occurred. The plot itself could have been interesting but it was spoilt a lot by the constant bickering and toing and froing between the families.

Overall it's written well enough to keep my attention for the entire book, but sadly this is ultimately forgettable and not one that moved me in any way.
