There was so much sadness and trauma woven all through this book. Abandonment issues, touch aversion, physical abuse, and mental. It was so sad and I need a second one from the author that lets me know Noor and Sal lived happily ever after.

I listened to the audiobook and the cast did an amazing job with all the voices and being filled with emotions. The ending with all the resources listed for readers who might be suffering from abuse also had me in tears. They did an amazing job at showing the struggles that immigrants can go through at home and at school. There were triggers warnings included in the beginning as well to warn those that might be sensitive to certain content.

I can't recommend this read/listen enough and def recommend this book for someone looking for a good cry with a very happy ever after for the two main characters with a horrible ending for the villainy character that you gotta love!

Ip Man 4 is indeed a finale. The Ip Man films are always solid, with interesting stories and beautifully choreographed fighting.
Donnie Yen, is, of course, amazing, and I've always loved his portrayal of Ip Man. I know Ip's family is very thankful for the films, and likes them. That's always a plus in my book.
Ip takes a trip to San Francisco when Bruce Lee provides the ticket and hotel. But, Ip is mainly using the trip so he can look at schools for his son.
The film portrays San Fransisco at the time, and the racism against the American-born Chinese and the immigrants. There was another interesting perspective to me as well, the Chinese Masters are mad with Bruce Lee for wanting to introduce Chinese Martial Arts to people that aren't Chinese.
Of course, it wouldn't be an Ip Man film if he wasn't going around, kicking people's asses justly. Overall, I really enjoyed the movie, and it was a nice break after seeing Uncut Gems earlier that day.
